Upcoming Class:
Folk Fermentation
New Bedford, MA | April 11, 2026
I am a perpetual student, always reading, taking classes, attending lectures and being led from one topic to the next. Eventually maybe I'll figure out how everything in the world is connected. But in the meantime,
I absolutely LOVE sharing the knowledge I've learned with others!
I lead classes and workshops in-person and online on a variety of topics.
Macrobiotics, Crystals, Nine Star Ki, Fermentation, and the Energetics of Food are my favorites!

here I am talking about the energetics of different vegetables!
Below find descriptions of a few of my "classic" courses:
Nine Star Ki is thought to be the most ancient form of astrology. It is a way of looking at the energetic flow of time based on the 5 Elements. These 5 Elements are also the basis of Chinese medicine, feng shui, and the Eating with the Elements course I teach.
Not only does knowing your Nine Star Ki sign help you understand yourself and embrace your own nature, but if you know where you are in the ki flow, you can go with it instead of unknowingly fighting against it. This is perfect for looking at the year ahead and planning your future goals, intentions, and activities!
3-hour online live seminar
If you’ve heard of the 5 Element Theory but don’t really know what it is, this class is for you!
If you already know about the 5 Elements, but aren’t sure how to apply them to your everyday life, this class is also for you!
The Five Elements are just metaphors for the changes we experience… the change of seasons, day & night, wake & sleep, growing from young to old …and every change in between. In addition, the 5 Elements also reflect the foods we eat, our organ systems, and the relationship that exists between them. When you eat in tune with nature and the elements, you not only support your physical health, but also your emotional and spiritual well-being.
