About Us
Welcome World herbal teas began as a range of tea formulas for the students who participated on the training programmes Amanda offered. That as they were learning of the herbs for themselves they could use the welcome World formulas with the pregnant women that they were working with, the; teas were ones that Amanda had used successfully with women in her clinic. Then Eva who set up the stores, Born with her sister selling natural products for parents and babies asked to stock the teas (see links),so Welcome World became a retail product . This next phase of our history is very exciting, to have an online presence and to have contact directly with you as customers.
We are committed to promoting the use of traditional herbal remedies in family life, to share our enthusiasm for family life, to other courses focused on the parent child relationship and the use of herbal remedies, and to be of assistance to others. Also to retail the Welcome World herbal range of teas to a much larger customer base.
We all express happiness in different ways and working with the plants and producing tea formulas makes my heart sing. I had the good fortune to be trained by some great teachers of herbal medicine. I belong to the family of herbalists from the Dr Christopher model of herbal medicine. The family is called The Association Of Master Herbalists (see links). I am very grateful that the opportunity was there for me to train with Jill Rosemary Davies and Dr Schulz . This was some time ago now and I have also experienced learning with many other teachers. Of course as with all of us where i have learnt most is by direct experience, to have had the opportunity and the blessing to encounter so many wonderful clients through my herbal practice. To learn of the truth that in the giving I receive, to recognise that by choosing to work as an practitioner I am healing my own misperceptions alongside offering assistance to others. I enjoy sharing what I have learnt and experienced through the training courses I offer and I hope to meet you one day on one of the programmes. My professional background is working with the parent and child relationship, also recognising this relationship begins before birth. My children are grown now and following their enthusiasms and also bringing new members to our family which is such a joy. I live in Somerset surrounded by the Mendip hills in the little market town of Wells.
