VIRTUAL HERBALISM CONFERENCE - DAY 1

Herbal Synergy: How Plants Work Better Together with Sajah Popham

Join Sajah Popham, clinical herbalist, educator, and co-founder of The School of Evolutionary Herbalism, for a conversation on herbal synergy. Explore the fascinating concept of synergy and how plants interact in combination, enhance each other’s effects, and shape herbal formulations. Drawing on clinical herbalism, medical astrology, and spagyric alchemy, Sajah shares insights for creating more powerful, intentional herbal blends and a deeper understanding of how plants can support transformation and healing.

Discussion Highlights:

  • Understanding herbal synergy and frameworks for building synergy in formulations
  • Strategies for applying herbal energetics to enhance synergistic effects
  • The role of flavor in supporting synergy
  • Using catalysts thoughtfully to enhance formula synergy
  • Matching tissue states and constitutions with appropriate herbal combinations
  • How preparation methods influence synergy among constituents

Sajah Popham is the author of Evolutionary Herbalism, and founder of Natura Sophia Spagyrics and the School of Evolutionary Herbalism. He trains herbalists in a holistic system of plant medicine that encompasses clinical Western herbalism, medical astrology, Ayurveda, and spagyric alchemy. 

His comprehensive approach focuses on balancing the science and spirituality of plant medicine to heal the body, clarify the mind, open the heart, and support the development of the soul. This is achieved through working with the chemical, energetic, and spiritual properties of the plants. His teachings embody a heartfelt respect, honor and reverence for the vast intelligence of plants in a way that empowers us to look deeper into the nature of our medicines and ourselves. 

He lives on a homestead in the foothills of Mt. Baker, Washington, with his wife and children, where he teaches, consults clients, and prepares spagyric herbal medicines.
