Our ongoing efforts to encourage women to take an active part in their own wellness includes creating sacred space for women to gather and support each other.  Willow Moon Herbals proudly endorses the Red Tent Movie, and is an active supporter of our local Red Tent gatherings, which is in turn part of a larger movement created by women for women. Enjoy a few hours a month to sit in circle and share our woman stories and wisdom. With all the social and economic uncertainty currently in the world, it just may be through cooperation, not competition, that positive, sustainable change will be realized.  Where women gather, miracles occur.  The Tent is open to all women.

Over the years throughout many classes on Women's Health issues, I often get asked about cancer concerns. These questions vary from inquiries about preventative, anti-cancer protocols using medicinal botanicals to direct questions about real, ongoing cancer struggles for friends, family or the inquiree herself. I would like to remind folks that I am not a medicinal doctor, nor do I have a medical degree. I am just like everyone else, searching for viable, alternative holistic modalities when conventional allopathic protocols fail or further aggravate a situation. I try very hard NOT to bring politics into my website, and, sometimes, the misinformation in the mainstream media makes me want to scream.

Cancer is a very delicate subject that often brings raw emotions to the surface at a time when levelheaded-ness and clear thinking is needed the most. For those who know me, they know that ~ while I applaud their noble 'ideals' ~ I am not a proponent of the 'pink-ribbon' philsophy. (more thoughts on that here  and here, and also here) Deciding on a proper course of treatment is a very personal choice specific to each individual case, and not something to be made lightly, especially where cancer is concerned. Know that I do support my clients who choose to go that route when they ask for assistance with medicinal botanical protocols ~ earnestly, wholeheartedly and with my sincerest committment.

And that remains my goal:  to help women take an active roll in their own health and wellness through Education

I continue to make my Self available to my clients for their real-life health concerns, Education, not Medication
and am an enthusiastic supporter
 of the "Education, not Medication" effort.  As always, clients can contact me through the various means on this website.  For more information about "Education, not Medication" click the logo to the right. 

Ok, I am getting off my soap-box now...... 

 And, as always, my continuing gratitude to all those interested in medicinal botanicals.

Donna,
"I can't thank you enough
for your herbal recommendations for sore throat and flu. I felt so much better the very next day! Also, the curcumin has completely eliminated my chronic knee pain."

Dear Emily,
Thank you for opening me to the world of herbs. With the use of Amla, Ashwagandha and Chaste Tree I have been feeling much better. It has not only helped me physically but also emotionally. I feel more energetic and upbeat. I honestly believe that your knowledge of herbs is wide and deep. I look forward to continue these herbs and see you again for consultation in near future. Best of luck!

Dear Donna-
Thank you so much for recommending Tea Tree Oil for the chronic rash on my son's abdomen. After going to the pediatrician and multiple dermatologists and spending hundreds of dollars on creams, powders and potions ~ we had just about resigned ourselves that he would just have to live with it. We felt we had nothing to lose when you suggested the Tea Tree Oil. What a miracle it has been, it was cleared up after 3 applications!! Thanks again - no more scratching!!!!
PS- My husband is also hooked - he puts Tea Tree Oil on his tooth brush every day!!

Donna-
I wanted to thank you for recommending the chickweed compresses for the black fly bites that covered my arms and neck. It relieved the welts, itching and redness within minutes and spared me hours of discomfort.

Dear Donna-

After recently twisting my knee, you had suggested using Arnica montana homeopathic pellets and the curcumin (tumeric). I was greatly impressed with the rapid improvement of my mobility. That was a Saturday morning: by Monday I was able to go on a family outing that included much walking up and down hills and stairways. I was able to keep up with everyone and not miss out on any of the activities. THANK YOU!!!

Donna,

When I tripped, I banged my forearm against the edge of the door as I was heading to class, cutting my arm and bruising my radius. That afternoon, we learned about making liniments in class, and I used it on my arm. By the next night, you could hardly notice any bruising and my arm was not paining me. Thank you very much!
