Discover Natural Remedies For The 12 Most Common Ailments . . .

. . . See How You Can EASILY Treat Them All At Home!

Tuesday, 8:43 a.m.

Dear Friend,

Long before Tylenol, Bengay, or Nyquil, there was herbal medicine.

There were no drug stores.

Instead, mothers looked in their family garden or nearby meadows and woods for specific plants known to possess curative properties.

Proven remedies passed down from generation to generation were often as effective as a bottle of pills bought from today’s store shelf . . .

. . . And often posed less risk of harming their patient.

Many of them originated with medicine women and men who practiced the art of releasing the essence of hidden cures buried in the roots, leaves, and flowers of various plants.

One plant’s root could ease coughs. Sap from another would soothe burns. Often certain processes were vital for getting the full benefit.

These are the SECRETS and POWER of herbal medicine.

But perhaps the biggest secret is . . .

These SAME Healing Powers Remain Available For You To Learn . . . And Use . . . Today!

Yet somehow, in our modern era, this hard-won knowledge has become largely forgotten.

Today, many of these plants are called weeds . . .

. . . Their medicinal value unrecognized.

Others are used as ornamentals and foods . . . still waiting patiently for you to unlock their healing properties.

All you need is a little know-how.

That’s why I’m here:

To invite you to join me on a journey of discovery.

One that will reveal these once common pioneer medicines and ancient therapies now hidden in plain sight.

An adventure that will open the door to a new-found lifestyle of self-reliant and sustainable everyday healthcare.

Re-Discover Pioneer Medicines And Ancient Therapies
. . . That Have Been HIDDEN In Plain Sight

Become Empowered To Use These Healing Gifts In Your Home Confidently!

That’s the purpose of our wildly popular Home Medicine 101 Certification.

Through 8 lessons, you'll discover how to create your own natural healing remedies easily!

Using plants and herbs, you can:

• Grow in your backyard.
• Grow on your kitchen windowsill.
• Pick up at the local grocer.
• Or, like ancient healers, find in a local meadow.

Twelve of the most common first aid and general discomfort scenarios will be addressed using all-natural plant and herbal remedies.

Past participants found completing the certification to be an excellent way to get a solid grounding in herbal medicine.

Even those with years of experience are likely to pick up some helpful tips thanks to our instructor's depth of expertise in the certification.

Guiding us along the way will be my good friend and registered herbalist Nicole Telkes.

Meet Your Guide On This Journey

A gifted educator, Nicole Telkes is the Director of the Wildflower School of Botanical Medicine near Austin, Texas.

Just like medicine women of old, Nicole was introduced to wildcrafting as a child . . . finding and harvesting plants from their natural habitat, alongside her grandmother.

A close family friend who had survived Hitler’s concentration camps further opened her young eyes to the world of herbal medicine.

Nicole’s formal education continued as an adult with a BA in Environmental Resource Management with a minor in Botany.

But her true expertise as a holistic healer comes from HUNDREDS of hours spent sitting at the feet of herbalist masters like:

Margi Flint, Howie Brounstein, and the late Michael Moore.

Helping countless individuals through her herbal practice and apothecary and imparting her vast knowledge to others every chance she gets.

She desires to see an herbalist in every home . . . restoring this natural and sustainable grassroots approach to personal healthcare to communities around the world.

Now you see why Nicole is perfectly suited to lead this fun and educational certification for us.

And why I’m delighted Nicole agreed to do so.

Over the course of eight lessons, she’ll detail which herbs, spices, and other plants can be used for numerous health benefits and exactly how to use them for maximum benefit.

What you'll learn in 8 lessons . . .

The Home Medicine 101 Certification was designed as an 8-lesson program to allow you ample time to practice your new-found skills, even with a busy schedule.

Each lesson and its related homework should only take about an hour of your time.

Still, this is a journey of exploration. I encourage you to take whatever time you need to practice and master each new concept. Ask as many questions as you wish. And since each video lesson is pre-recorded, no one will rush you through.

Move forward only when you’re ready – take as little or as much time as you need.

That way, by the end of your certification, you’ll be confident you really can make your own home medicine for use with every one of the conditions listed below.

Here's an overview of what we'll cover together:

Home Medicine 101 eCourse Modules

Lesson 1: Burns, Stings, and Rashes

Burns, stings, and rashes are some of the most common first aid scenarios you’ll come across in daily life.

So we’ll tackle this topic right off the bat.

By the time you complete the very first leg of your certification, you’ll already know . . .

• Which soothing, cooling, drawing, and astringing plants calm burns, stings, and rashes.
• Two plants you should keep on your kitchen windowsill to help relieve burning and itching FASTER than store-bought remedies.
• A commonplace – and free – backyard ingredient to mix into your home remedies for fast relief after tangling with poison ivy or to help draw out splinters and stingers.
• Multiple common “weeds” you’ll want to look for in your neighborhood and have on hand for treating bites and stings.
• How to make a strong tea from the bark or leaves of a familiar tree for an instant astringent to aid healing of oozing rashes and wounds.

Lesson 2: Wounds and Lacerations

Prevention may be the best medicine . . .

. . . But when bumps, bruises, abrasions, and cuts happen, you’ll know the right approach to speed healing and fight infection.

Natural remedies you’ll learn how to identify, make, and use during this second lesson include . . .

• A natural blood clotting European-imported weed that also kills infection.
• How to properly clean “dirty wounds” plus the best way to apply herbs to these kinds of lacerations.
  
• The battle-proven plant used by World War I soldiers to stop bleeding and fight infections . . . plus it helps bruises, too!
• How to easily tell which plants are most likely to kill germs so you’ll always have infection-fighting options close at hand.
• The #1 plant to have on hand for fighting infection – it’s powerful enough to help prevent the spread of toxic and nephritic wounds and draw poisons out of the body.
• Plus, use honey to fight infections – but only if you use the right kind Nicole describes. (Yes, it really works and is commonly used in European hospitals!)

Lesson 3: Coughs and Colds

Coughs come in two general forms, dry and wet.

Dry, raspy coughs need to be treated differently than wet coughs produced in mucus-filled lungs.

During Lesson 3 of your eCourse, you’ll learn how to treat both kinds of cough and more, including . . .

• Which colors of phlegm may indicate a lung infection rather than a minor irritation.
• How to make a tea from an aromatic root found at every Asian grocer to coat your throat, stop coughing spasms, and fight inflammation.
• A sweet, soothing treatment for your throat that also reduces inflammation and kills bacteria – and a suitable alternative if you don’t have it on hand.
• How to make an infusion from the leaf of a weed found across North America – and perhaps in your own yard – which serves as a great expectorant for relieving wet coughs.
• The versatile meal ingredient so versatile you’ll always want to keep some on hand to help calm spasmodic coughs, fight infections, and relieve pain.
• And finally, an amazing poultice to rub on your chest and back that relieves even the worst lingering coughs.

Lesson 4: Fevers

If your first instinct when you catch a fever is to bring the fever down, you’ll gain a new perspective during this lesson.

Nicole presents a holistic approach to handling fevers by helping move pathogens out of your body faster so you can feel better sooner.

By the end of the lesson, you’ll know . . .

• When to be concerned by a fever: How long is too long? How hot is too hot? What other symptoms should cause concern?
• Which herbs and other powerful methods to use to boost your body’s vitality and push out pathogens faster . . . and others to relieve those misery-creating cold, flu and fever symptoms.
• Which herbs are best at fighting viruses . . . which are great as antibacterial or antifungal remedies . . . and which are generally helpful for almost any fever.
• An old-fashioned method of giving your body the extra dose of nutrition needed to recover without overloading your system with heavy foods. (Even better than chicken soup!)
• And, of course, how to bring down a fever when you need to.

Lesson 5: Indigestion and Stomach Aches

Moving into the second half of our journey together, Nicole shares four flavorful types of herbs and spices that deliver surprising and noticeable improvements to your overall digestion and comfort.

Ever wonder why many ethnic foods have such a distinct smell and flavor?

The real reason often has little to do with taste!

• Instead of “taking something afterward” to deal with indigestion, simply include a small portion of this prolific weed as part of your meal – you’ll probably find it growing in your yard.
• Discover herbs that stimulate better digestion . . . and which ones to use instead if you suffer from ulcers, acid reflux, or other forms of acidic pain.
• A secret you’ll want to know if you ever have to deal with the upset stomach that often accompanies a hangover.
• Try the tasty, aromatic plant that’s easy to grow virtually anywhere - simply add some of it to any meal to relieve cramping and bloating from excess gas and indigestion.
• Plus, all the best ways to get the FASTEST herbal relief possible for digestive distress.

Lesson 6: Anxiety and Insomnia

Don’t worry, be happy!

Because in this lesson, Nicole is going to guide you through how to calm an overactive nervous system – the most common cause of both anxiety and insomnia.

Rather than taking the first conventional response of taking medicines, try these proven natural solutions instead . . .

• First, try replenishing your mineral levels with these three weeds full of micro-nutrients most who suffer from anxiety or insomnia are deficient in.
• One weed in particular (typically found in old agricultural areas) has a seed head with calming, sedative, mineral restorative benefits.
• A tea made from this beautiful flower found throughout the deep southern U.S. states is an amazing sedative and calming agent for those susceptible to anxiety or panic attacks.
• Another native flower found across the country is particularly helpful for bringing a calm focus, minimizing everyday stress and headaches. If you’re already on stress or anxiety medications, this one can help make them more effective (let your doctor know, you might be able to cut back).
• Plus, one more flower that relieves digestive stress and brings down that generally overwhelmed feeling some of us experience when stressed.

Lesson 7: Muscle Aches and Pains

Nicole starts off this leg of your journey by helping you determine whether the pain is:

(1) Muscular-based for treatment with the remedies in this section, or . . .

(2) Something else like nerve pain.

Then she’ll describe:

• The critical nutrient your body needs to relieve muscle pain – and which nutritive herbs are high in it to help you recover faster.
• A native shrub whose bark that is highly effective at relieving muscle cramps and spasms fast – plus how to harvest the bark without causing long-term harm to the plant.
• Several types of trees with bark or sap you can use to make your own natural pain-relieving muscle rubs and tinctures for internal use.
• How to create home remedies featuring a wonder root you can use internally and externally to help relieve virtually every kind of cramp – even menstrual cramps!

Lesson 8: Topical Infections

Wrapping up our certification, Nicole delves into basic home remedies for infections . . .

Including delicate areas!

Like the eyes, nose, mouth, and genital area.

In this final leg of your journey, you’ll learn about . . .

• One ingredient to include in almost EVERY REMEDY for areas like the eyes, nose, mouth, and genitals to prevent irritating imbalances!
• A famous flower with an essence that can be easily consolidated and used to draw out infections from even the most delicate areas.
• A pretty European garden herb you can grow virtually anywhere in the United States and use to boost your immune system and promote faster healing.
• A powerhouse anti-fungal and anti-microbial you can harvest by foraging a weed found throughout North America to promote faster healing of virtually any wound.
• A unique Asian method of using herbal remedies – particularly for healing sensitive genital issues – without the irritation of direct application.
• Plus, several more herbs and flowers that can be prepared for use in relieving irritations, infections, and wounds in all areas of the body.

Feel Confident Using These Herbal Remedies

Knowing you've got the skills to back up your home treatment plans!

Often there’s no difference between preparing herbs for culinary versus medicinal purposes.

They can taste good and have healing properties at the same time.

But other times, you’ll need to prepare your home remedy for use by making a:

• Poultice
• Tincture
• Decoction
• Salve
• Tea

In every case, you’ll have a demonstration video at your fingertips.

Illustrating exactly how to make your own.

So you'll have absolutely EVERYTHING you need to start making and using homemade herbal remedies to treat common illnesses and ailments.

Because NOTHING is left out.

You'll enjoy LIFETIME ACCESS to the entire program; it's easy to refer back and review the video lessons anytime you need a quick refresher.

Plus, you can ask questions in the dedicated eCourse Forum at any time. Get answers back quickly from topic experts and fellow students. (And participate in lively discussions that further cement the learning in your brain.)

Here is what mine looks like:

3 Things The Academy Is NOT

We are focused on real solutions, and we avoid some topics as other organizations better serve them.

We are:

Non-Political (actually, most of us think politics is a completely rigged game, and at best, it’s a form of distracting entertainment. We have folks from every political stripe, and we all agree not to waste much time arguing over that. We do love to laugh at politicians from time to time, though). ;)

Non-Dietary (vegan, paleo, south beach, fruitarians, Adkins, Weston-Price, OMAD. . . everyone is welcome here.)

Non-Denominational (almost all of us have a deep spiritual connection, we are open to all. We come from almost every religion possible Buddhist, Christian, Jewish, Pagan, Muslim, Atheists, and everything in between.)

What Our Alumni Have To Say

Sandra Richardson

"I am engrossed by the volumes of rich content that you supply on the Grow Network. I call myself a perpetual student. So, being a member of the Academy, I love all the certifications that you have out there. I am currently trying to work my way through every single one of them! And I love the currency of the information that you post. There’s more of it than I can actually go through. Which I find gratifying because I never get bored with it."

Chris Devinenzi

"A lot of times, people just get paralyzed, and they don’t know what to do. They just have so much information but no knowledge of what to do about it. But you make it simple. And that’s what’s so good about the Academy. You should say, “The Grow Network - we make it simple!"

Rose Donovan

"The Grow Network is really a breath of fresh air. The videos and courses give in-depth information, but yet they’re easy to understand and follow. There’s a wealth of information here. I love being able to find the resources I need quickly."

Linzi Searcy

"As I become more aware of the situation that our society is in, I feel a growing sense of urgency to learn the skills needed to grow my own food and even make some of my own medicine. I really appreciate the quality of the courses and resources that come with my Grow Network Academy membership. I feel empowered by what I’m learning and love how easily accessible you’ve made it for a beginner like me."
