Acute Covid Prep Workshops
with Devon, registered nurse; and Tasha, clinical herbalist
Please review our sliding scale guidelines for which ticket price to purchase
We get asked almost daily at MXED GREENS for herbal recs for C0vid infections- whether that’s folks DMing us because they just tested positive, or coming in because friends and family have just come down sick for the first or fourth time. Devon sees COVID+ patients most shifts at the hospital. So even though we’re almost 3 years in, it felt important to offer this class to share what we we know from both an allopathic medicine and herbal perspective.
Designed with an online and in person option, this space is for you if you want to:
- Use home remedies + over the counter options to treat an acute respiratory infection
- Level up your skills of caring for your loved ones in person or from a far, knowing that pandemics aren’t just going to disappear and that we depend on each other for community care + mutual aid
- Be curious about when to call EMS or go to the ER/urgent care, and when to manage symptoms at home
- Anticipate what to expect if a loved one is hospitalized and/or on isolation precautions
- Learn hands-on practical and concrete steps for facing unexpected illness
In person at MXED GREENS: Sun Nov 13th, 3-5pm
Together we will make an herbal cough syrup, talk about herbs that are helpful for relieving symptoms during an acute covid infection, brainstorm a full integrative first aid kit to have at home or while traveling to be prepared for a positive test, and learn about what to expect from the U.S. medical system in accessing care and medications for acute covid. All participants will leave with their own bottle of syrup. This version of the workshop will be in person at MXED GREENS, inside with well-fitting masks required for all. Limited spaces available, wheelchair accessible. See our Contact page for full accessibility info.
Online, live and recorded: Mon Nov 21st, 6-8pm EST
