I absolutely love this course! I have explored many herbal distance learning programs and this course is by far superior. The material is presented so that is easliy understandable with great references making the information easy to retain. The course goes beyond theory, and presents practical information that you can begin using immediately. I am finallly making my own herbal remedies that are benefitting myself, my family, and friends. I would highly recommend Mr. Hobbs program to anyone interested in studiying the wonder of herbs!

I went into this course a nurse and a Herbalist. I knew I would learn a lot but not to the extent and caliber this course has proven to be. Every lesson is an eye- opening experience, an adventure of sorts. It is scientifically, medically correct and incorporates Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurvedic, Native American, and other alternative therapies as well. I would recommend this course to anyone who wishes to take their knowledge up to the next level. Anyone who is interested in the natural approach to health or who wishes to supplement their own would benefit from this course.

One way that the course is helping me at the herb store where I work is that now I understand more of how things work in TCM. Also I understand more about what words like "wildcrafting" actually mean. I am also learning how varying herb products can be, and how who they are made by makes a real difference. I'm becoming a lot more confident in my knowledge on herbs and herbal medicine and am really looking forward to the rest of the course.

Like a good herbal formula, Christopher Hobbs’ home study course is a fine blend of Western and Chinese herbal practices. The course also brings traditional herbalism closer to the mainstream of current medicine and science by examining the chemical constituents of herbs and their therapeutic activities.

In the past I never thought I'd do well with this type of program, as I prefer a classroom setting. However, once I saw the PowerPoint presentation and text format, I realized how in-depth and good this program would be for me. I have enjoyed each chapter and even though some is overview, I still learn more than I knew before. I have encouraged others to take this program because of the incredible instructional background and development and how easy this is to fit into my current busy lifestyle. I am excited to progress onward through this study and know this work will lead me to more of what I like in the herb profession. Thank you for creating this program!

Thank you Christopher and Beth.

This course is tops! It is well written and comes with beautifully illustrated CD presentations. It truly captures both the magnitude of modern worldwide herbal medicine and the nitty gritty of how to practice. Christopher and Beth deeply understand what is at stake and cut to the chase to empower us with the ability to take care of ourselves, our loved ones and clients.
