About
Hi! I’m Tamara Schmidt and I’m an Herbal Therapist, and Certified Forest Therapy Guide. Through this website, I help people like you strengthen your connection to nature so you can feel your best.
People improve their mental and physical health, boost creativity, and tune into their greater knowing, in other words, their intuition, when they deepen their connections to the natural world. As an experiential herbalist, I guide people through first-hand experiences with plants and trees. I work with people in the urban settings, helping them strengthen nature connection where there is a nature deficiency. I value expression, adventure, achievement, integrity, and humour.
Strong relationships with the more-than-human-world has a ripple effect benefiting all beings.
What You Will Find Here
Experiential Herbalism
In experiential herbalism, first-hand experiences create a solid base in our knowledge of plants and trees. First hand experience helps tie together information we gather in books, online, and from others. It’s like getting to know people. The more first hand experience we have, the better we understand someone. Paying attention to the energy of plants helps us make better decisions in day to day formulations and everyday herbalism.
Love for Nature
Resources found on this website will help you strengthen connections with the more-than-human-world, thereby reducing stress, increasing creativity, improving mental and physical health, and relationships. You will find resources to inspire you to take it outside and connect with the world around you.
I am a health coach keenly interested in natural, whole foods and herbs that provide people with energizing vitality. There isn’t only one way of eating, but in general, the closer we can get to eating natural, whole foods, the better. Each person has their own particular needs, and tastes. In Nourishee, there are resources to help people stick to eating foods that are nutritious and delicious; foods that really work for them.
Art and Spirituality
In my practice of nature connection, I often stumble upon a moment of awe and I may take a photo with my phone. These images carry the spirit of the moment, and often impart joy, love, humour, and beauty. The energy found in these moments inspire my designs on t-shirts, mugs, cards, and other goods found on this website and on Amazon.
Nature Connection offers Self-Connection
“Within nature connection,
the mind and body
receive a break or pause,
and the whole person can find a
more profound sense of self.”
Tammy was trained as a Clinical Herbal Therapist through Dominion Herbal College (2010) and a Nature and Forest Therapy Guide through the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Guides and Programs (2020.)
