Pets and People
Natural Healing for Pets and their People
This course is based on the journey of Anji Jackson Main and her use of herbal support for pets. It charts her many successes and some of the difficult challenges she has encountered over the last 50 years working with her own and other people’s animals, combining herbs and natural healing.
Description
Anji has always had a special interest in the natural treatment of animals, having been strongly influenced by the work of Juliette de Bairacli Levy long before she trained professionally as a Herbalist, Natural Healer and Iridologist.
The course will explore the numerous ways in which plants and foods can be used to keep animals healthy and free from disease. It will teach you to take responsibility for the correct rearing of your animals to ensure that you are not progressively weakening their genetic inheritance.
It will also address the stresses that an animal might be under in modern situations, and work to relieve them by the best means possible. In terms of diet, this means avoiding over-processed, de-vitalised convenience options, and getting back to real food — as indeed it does with humans.
Anji Jackson Main is CNM’s Herbal Clinical Director and Lecturer in Iridology, Naturopathy and Herbal Medicine. She also has a Master of Fine Arts degree and likes to explore the connection between painting and healing.

“This was a great day with such a lovely group of people. Anji’s overarching aim was to provide us with information so that we felt confident to rethink ways to care for our animals. Anji has a wealth of experience and no question was left unanswered, The free-flowing session covered a lot of ground and was ultimately an exploration into the simplicity of a natural approach to animal care. It is rare to be taught by someone with a lifetime of experience to share, who affirmed our contributions and extended our thinking.”

“I very much enjoyed the Pets and People course given by Anji Main. The course gave us a good introduction to the cautious and safe practice of using herbs / plants to naturally support the health of cats and dogs. We were enabled to begin to put our learning into safe practice; a good starting point from which to progress further. We were also provided with information regarding resources for further learning.
Anji had a relaxed, friendly and welcoming teaching style which took away any barrier to absorbing information / to learning and had everyone feel comfortable to ask questions and share experience; we all got on well and shared the interest from a similar introductory level. Anji was a very generous teacher.
The course has inspired me and I am looking to commit to a more lengthy course with greater study and detail so that I can grow into this subject and practice more and more. I am going to be planting a healing herb apothecary in my garden for my cat and see how I may take that further. This is a surprising new part to my life that I had not really foreseen.
It was also very nice to reconnect with the CNM since qualifying as a naturopathic nutritionist, when the college was at Oxford Circus. It’s all been a very positive experience for me and my qualification became my passport to move out of London to Penzance, living by the Sea immersed in a naturopathic health practice; I’m very appreciative.”
