To be honest, I have been struggling with which direction to take my herbalism studies for, well, ever. The subject covers all time periods, areas and peoples, thus making it hard to find a niche. I recently received some fantastic advice, focus on what makes me excited about herbalism. At first, I had no idea what this was. Now, having had some time to think about it, I think I know where I will try next. I love the folk knowledge of herbs, the old wives tales, the societal memory, the "we've done this forever and we don't know why, but it works". I am hoping that this will enable me to more easily focus on a place and period.
Wish me luck!
