Diane Nuckle
Greetings to you, and welcome to our on-line version of Earth Spirits Herbal Apothecary and Holistic Center. I'm Diane Nuckle, proprietress and owner of Earth Spirits, and I would like to introduce you to the wonderful woman that are here to assist you. These are the faces to the voices at the other end of the phone or of the fingers that have responded to your email request. Or better yet, the ones you see personally when you stop in to visit us! Each one of them brings the ‘gifts’ of who they are here to assist you on your journey of health and spirit.

Me? Well, lets see. I am an herbalist, an aromatherapist and a flower essence practitioner. I love using the plants in my healing work, and sharing about their healing and sacred ways. These plants are such gifts to us, and I feel that our Creator has provided us with all the tools we need to keep ourselves healthy. I also teach a 7-month herbal apprenticeship course here entitled “Wisdoms of the Plant World” and an intermediate 'The Journey Continues', where I share the knowledge of these gifts to all those who are eager to learn.

I also a 'student' of many energy therapies (after all, isn't everything 'energy'!) and am a Certified Master/Instructor in Intergrated Energy Therapy and a Reiki Master as well. I offer private IET healing sessions here at Earth Spirits, as well as classes that teach others how to use this energy.

I love taking long walks in woods with my husband, observing the plants and animals along the way, or spending meditative moments in the garden with the herbs and flowers. And I especially love traveling to new places where I get to see and experience new landscapes and plant varieties.

And now, may I introduce you to the rest of the Earth Spirits team.............

Joyce Lafortune
Hi, I have been at Earth Spirits for about 8 years and have loved every moment. You can find me "on duty" on Mon. Tues., Wed., Fri. and Sat. and just about any other time if needed. My main question is how may I help you?

My contributions to this wonderful Apothecary and Holistic Center include Flower Essence Practitioner, Traditional Usui Reiki Master/Teacher, Herbalist, Aromatherapist, Advanced IET practitioner and have completed a wonderful 5 day intensive seminar in Hawaii with Steve and Barbara Rother and received certification for Foundation Level of the Overlight Process. The course included Energy Matrix, Energy Stamps and the 12 Primary Life Lessons for use in facilitation.

Wishing you Love, Light and Laughter, Joyce  

Sharon Ashleigh
Hi, I am Sharon Ashleigh. Being a part of Earth Spirits has opened many doors for me and I am very grateful. To think I simply thought I was getting a part time job at this great little herb shop! I am now an Herbalist, a Plant Spirit Healing practitioner, an organic gardener and homeschooling mom.

Working as an herbalist has led me to explore both alternative and ancient healing ways, as they are often so closely linked. As a Plant Spirit Healing practitioner, I am excited to now offer these treatments as one of the many wonderful ways to get back to wholeness offered at the shop.

Astrology has fascinated me since my teen years and I now direct the monthly Astrology study group, offer natal charts and reports, as well as the Optimum Child astrological reports. What a fun and interesting way to learn more about ourselves and the children that we love!

Watching my own children play in the gardens has encouraged me to help form the Growing Herbalist Workshop series for children. Children have such an innate love of nature! What wonderful little reminders they are to the rest of us to slow down and yes-- smell the roses, appreciate the beauty around us and above all else, keep your sense of humor!
