SUMMARY:Fomitopsis mounceae (red belted polypore mushroom) trituration workshop
DESCRIPTION:Suggested donation: $50\nThis event does qualify for CEU credits. A certificate will be emailed upon request\, with a min. donation of $50. \n\n\nWith Sonya McLeod\, Classical Homeopath and author of “The Art of Proving” (Saltire Books\, 2020). \nThis is a lively hands-on workshop\, requiring the active participation of all workshop members. Conversation between all participants will be highly encouraged. \nDuring this workshop\, we will explore the process of making the Fomitopsis mounceae (red belted polypore) mushroom into a homeopathic remedy\, starting with a small amount of the substance\, sourced locally. Using a mortar and pestle and lactose powder\, participants will learn the ancient science and art of homeopathic trituration\, first invented by Samuel Hahnemann\, the founder of homeopathy. Once the workshop is complete\, participants will have the knowledge and confidence to make their own homeopathic remedies in the future\, if they so desire. \nFomitopsis mounceae is the most common conk mushroom in the Pacific Northwest. It is closely related to Fomitopsis pinicola which is found in Europe and has a long history of medicinal use. The Fomitopsis mounceae fungus is found mainly on dead aspen and conifer trees. It is a major factor in the production of brown rot residues that are a stable soil component in coniferous forest ecosystems. \nDuring this trituration\, we will also be exploring the healing properties of homeopathic red belted polypore\, mainly through art\, as well as through conversation and journaling. \nThis event is open to professionals as well as to laypeople. To understand more about trituration provings\, please visit the Homeopathic Trituration Proving FAQ \nParticipants should bring their own mortar and pestle if they have one\, journals and/or art materials. Extra supplies will be provided as needed. \nThis event will take place in person at 351 E. 39th Ave in Vancouver\, BC\, Canada. To RSVP or to find out more details\, please call 604-677-7742 or email LM*********@***il.com. \nPlease note that there will be an optional field trip (free of charge) for all interested participants\, to source the mushroom before the proving. Date TBD. Please let me know if you are interested in attending the field when you RSVP. The field trip will take place in North Vancouver and though it will be a relatively short hike\, you must be able to navigate some steep terrain. \nReferences and Further Reading\nE-Flora BC: Electronic Atlas of the Flora of British Columbia.
