St. Hildegard Medicine Class (2023)

Course Description

Discover the fascinating world of St. Hildegard von Bingen, the famed German 12th-century mystic, abbess, and natural medicine pioneer. Hildegard was the first herbalist to teach remedies such as using galangal to treat heart attacks, which is still recognised for its benefits even after 900 years.

Her unique approach integrated spirituality with practical, natural remedies, combining traditional herbal medicine, nutrition, and precious healing stones.

Hildegard medicine is one of the most popular natural therapies prescribed by German medical doctors and naturopaths today. It emphasises a balanced relationship between body and soul as key to achieving optimal health and well-being. Her concept of Viriditas highlights the vitality of life and the harmony between the divine, nature, and the human body.

In this course, Dr Sebastian Liew brings Hildegard’s teachings into the modern world, offering clinically proven herbal recipes to support your “inner doctor” for both optimal health and inner transformation. Explore how Hildegard’s unique therapies—not found in any other traditional medicines—saved lives and continue to inspire holistic health practices.

You will also learn about key herbs from her classic work Physica, such as fennel, galangal, and Bertram, and how they contribute to both physical and spiritual well-being.

Join us on this journey to explore the wisdom of Hildegard medicine and experience the value of an integrated, harmonious approach to health—body, mind, and spirit.
