Peeka Trenkle, AHG, DSH
Join herbalist and homeopath Peeka Trenkle for an indepth look at how our hormones affect our health, how our environment affects our hormones, and ways to assist our bodies in getting and staying well. In this workshop we will look at the functions of the endocrine glands—thyroid, pituitary, adrenals, pineal gland, thymus—as well as the organs of the body, which also contain endocrine tissue. We will explore how the hormones communicate with each other and with the nervous and immune systems, and what happens when the endocrine system is not functioning optimally. We will explore a range of therapeutic strategies that help restore endocrine function and balance with herbs and nutrition, as well as with lifestyle and environmental adjustments, so that we leave this day equipped with tools to begin to address endocrine imbalances holistically.
