" Beautifully done, beloved. I am so enjoying working my way through this first offering."
“Thank you so much for today!!! My friend who is also in the class were buzzing and processing after. So looking forward to incorporating and diving in other portals with you and others in the class. ❤️✨ Oh my god it was good! I learned so much and it was so affirming. Such good reminders about how we are all connected. So many different paths became available for future learning and connection!”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Holy smokes. The short answer: Yes! Let's do it all! Everything looks amazing! THANK YOU for the time, energy, and intention you put into crafting such a special set of recommendations. YES.
Long answer: I'm so excited! I was thrilled to see the use of marshmallow and pine, because immediately I remembered other times I've used them (marshmallow in a tea, pine primarily as a scent) and they are so comforting to me! I also started saving veggie scraps this week, before I got your email! I've made broth a few times before, and I'm excited about your guidance of adding those specific herbs & mushrooms, which I haven't done (plus the broth boost we're planning!).
It's hard for me to articulate how comforted and affirmed I felt during our time together on Tuesday. (Although maybe you saw it in my watery eyes.) You are SO GOOD at what you do, and are clearly made for this. I wasn't surprised, of course--I've followed you and scheduled with you for a reason, but wow. So many people would and will benefit from what you have to offer. And like, the breadth of your knowledge! Makes me so excited about things I can continue to learn about. There are so many special things you said that I wrote down and am still feeling a little mind blown by. Whew.
I'm so excited for this package, and so excited to keep working with you...Also, the fire tonic smells so good that my mouth started watering right away--and tastes unbelievable! Also, the forest toner? SO comforting. I spray it on my face before bed and last night I said to my partner, "Smell my skin! I SMELL LIKE A FOREST! AND I'm protected." I love it."

"cheré is a warm, compassionate and gifted empath and herbalist. When we met I was battling a cold and painful sore throat. After using the prescribed tonic, I didn't need NyQuil or anything that evening to get thru the night. I felt instant relief. I'm a believer in the energy infused into the syrum and tonic because I'd tried shots of fire cider vinegar and other natural food remedies prior to no avail. cheré knows their stuff and knows how to speak to the cells in your body to encourage YOUR OWN HEALING. Highly recommend! Thank you Sassafras Healing Arts!"

"There's an article going around right now about how this administration wants to make it even easier for the medical industry to deny trans folks access to care. I obviously have a lot of feelings and emotions and fears about it (that's what twitter is for), but I want to say that right now is the time to be investing in our local healers. I was so lucky to be able to receive top surgery in early November, and had the blessing of working with Cheré at Sassafras Healing Arts to prepare for the procedure. They provided me an amazing and informative consultation about nutrition and what I needed to know, medicinal herbs (in satchel, tea, and tincture forms), and a healing scar/nerve care oil. I cannot say how much it meant to me to have such compassionate, kind, earnest, and competent care from a trans provider. Meeting with them at the People's Movement Center helped me prepare in the way I really needed to - grounded in community knowledge and a history of caring for each other. I would recommend them to all my trans (and cis!) friends and family, and trust them to provide deeply affirming care.
tldr// Sassafras Healing Arts is rad beyond belief, and their care and knowledge was such a blessing as I did a Big Important Scary Thing."
Jayce
"Cheré offered me a consultation in a very difficult time when I was being sucked back into severe anxiety. I was very satisfied with our long talk and the topics we covered, and I immediately felt better after knowing that someone was creating a couple of potions and a tea blend tailored just for my needs. The products are amazing and I can tell they were made with knowledge and intention. I carry my rose glycerite with me everywhere because it's delicious and I am comforted in knowing I will feel better if I need to. Cheré is not only a great resource to their community as a herbalist, but they're also a social justice activist. Truly an inspiration!"
Anhelo
"I did a consultation with Cheré and it was incredible. I highly recommend one if you're looking to possibly incorporate herbal medicine into your life. Cheré was very attentive, caring and explored many possibilities for trying to find some ailments to my needs. It was above and beyond what I had hoped it would be. I'll be a lifelong customer!"
Molly
"Every time I go to Sassafras I feel comforted and seen as a queer person and chronically ill person. They provide amazing products at sliding scale rates and I've never felt better than when I started using their products alongside my meds. I wish I could give them 10 stars."
Cassandra
"You’re really an artist with this medicine. Thank you so much. 🖤❤️"
Sarana N
"Cheré is a skilled, thoughtful, hardworking practitioner. I highly recommend Sassafras Healing Arts."
Jessica
"I've been using tinctures from Cheré for months and have loved them. They put so much thought and care into everything they blend and it comes through in the elixirs and teas. The Horoscope Elixirs are a treat and I can't recommend them enough!"
Carrie
"The herbal products that I've gotten here have been amazing and so integral to my wellness and health with a high stress and emotionally heavy job! Top quality and I always receive them beautifully and thoughtfully packed all the way in DC from MN"
Kaity
"I had come back to the place I called home for 24 yrs, after moving 2,000 mi away just 14 months prior. I had just started a new career and was home to celebrate my moms 60th birthday with 50 of her closest friends and family. I was feeling overwhelmed and had little to no time to attend to my lil heart. Luckily I was able to meet with Cheré and they recommended their 'Take Care Potion' elixir. Woah, talk about magic. I instantly felt more calm and nourished and was able to enjoy being present with my family. An irreplaceable gift. Thank you so much for that Cheré!"
Eleni J
"I felt very respected & heard today. It really means a lot to me. Thank you so much!"
Client
"I have used an array of products that I've gotten from Sassafras Healing Arts, and they've helped me improve my quality of life. Cheré, thank you so much for your expertise, your exceptional services, and your wonderful products!"
Ruth
"I feel like this herbal smoke blend {Smoke Magick} is exactly what I have been needing to replace cigarettes. The behavior is harder for me to kick than the nicotine itself so I can still get the self care 5 min break away that I got from smoking without killing my body with cigarettes. And the hit is very smooth and comfortable. You can use this as a review on your product or promotions however you need it and I’ll certainly be picking up another tin on my next session "
Riley
"cheré's herbal goodness usually leaves me speechless and relying on emoticons to express myself. lots of ✨✨✨💥🌚 a bit of 🌊 🌊 🌊 💧❤️ and definitely some 🌱🌱🌱🐛🦋. they are incredibly connected to the herbal world, are a valuable asset to the community. we are lucky that they share their gifts and talents with us. I have yet to have a full herbal consultation, however every time I have purchased a product I am left well-informed, and have nothing but faith that it was prepared with the highest of intentions, and with the utmost care, diligence, and respect."
Val
"Thank you so much for the important work that you do. As someone else with chronic health problems, your herbal creations have been a meaningful part of my treatment since I was introduced to your work!"
Sam
"Sassafras Healing Arts offerings are truly magical. I have used a natural probiotic to aid my transition into winter and I swear that the fire cider has kept the flu at bay and, even when I succumbed to a cold, it restored me back to health much faster. Finally, as a person living with fibromyalgia and arthritis, I cannot stress enough how much relief I have received from the joint salve. I love moving my body through dance but the cold and my chronic disabilities can be tough on my joints. This salve has relieved pain enough to allow me to sleep after dance training workshops and long walks! Sassafras Healing Arts herbal products are truly amazing, restorative and healing. Thank you!"
Alex I
"Since using your nutritive bone nourishing vinegar, fire cider, and take care potion, not only have my stools been much more formed and easy to pass, but I have had ZERO cramps with my menstrual cycle! I normally have a lot of anxiety about using the public bathrooms because of my painful bowel movements, and when I have my moon I am usually doubling over in pain with massive amounts of bleeding, but not this time! I have lived with really bad menstrual cramps my whole life. Your medicine is exactly what my body needed! It's fucking AMAZING! A couple minerals instead of surgery? This is life altering for me! I am still I amazement because this is after only a few days of using the tinctures! Thank you!"
Kenny
"Fire Cider - Sassafras' fire cider is my daily supplement. Seriously when I am taking this magic daily I can REALLY feel a difference to many areas of my life - sinuses less congested, clears my nose and soothes my digestion. If I am on the verge of a flu/cold type sickness a couple of swigs of this can really help keep it at bay. I've always wondered how to get more of those "healthy super foods" in my daily diet and tumeric and garlic are both in the cider in liberal amounts! Slumber Potion is amazing to put you to sleep. Hands down if I am having insomnia, had too much coffee or this is the most reliable way to quell my heartbeat and lull me to sleep."
Nafeesa
"I have used several of Sassafras Healing Arts tinctures, syrups, and elixirs. I have found them all to be quite creative and effective! I give them 5 stars and hope they are around for a long time!! We are so fortunate to have products like these available- they are so well made and wholesome!"
Joni
"My pinky was hurting for over a week, nearly rendering my left hand useless for farming and working on my computer. Two doses after my elixer/witch potion I'm back at it 100wpm and felling trees into the night. Thanks friend."
Cliff R
"I was not sleeping very well for months. Often times I would go to bed around 5 or 6 AM. I tried melatonin, Rx sleeping pills, relaxation, everything under the sun. I was starting to get worried because my nursing clinicals were around the corner and they start at 5 am- that's bed time for me. I met with Cheré and they figured most of my sleepless nights were caused by anxiety. I started taking the tincture they made for me and it really helped, but the best part is that it helped with my anxiety! Everyone was a little stressed out about clinicals but I was excited! I felt like I could keep going and take on any stress ball that life through at me! Now I take the tincture before any stressful event, like an interview, or a presentation, or meeting new people. It really helps me focus and enjoy what I am doing instead of losing control because my mind is racing with anxious scenarios."
Jasmine A
"Sassafras healing arts makes wonderful high quality products. I have bought skin salve, fire cider, prebiotic tincture and chill your heart out elixir, all smell and taste wonderful! Cheré uses high quality ingredients in all creations and puts a lot of time, energy and love into each product made. I can't wait to try some of Cheré's new creations!"
Anna C
"The muscle rub I recieved from Cheré was goddess-sent. I had been through a car accident and since have had some pretty sore back and shoulder muscles. Not many things have worked for me, but Cheré's salve sure did! It's strong, long lasting, and smells so good I want to eat it!"
Ari K
"Cheré has been a long-time friend of mine. I have watched Cheré grow into their knowledge of holistic and spiritual healing and it has been amazing to witness. Cheré has spread the reach of their knowledge further and further with every teaching, lesson, class or workshop they attend. I know when myself (or my friends I give Cheré's healing remedies to) use the medicines, they will not only be experiencing Cheré's healing powers, but also Cheré's love."
Jilly J
"Full moon insomnia has struck both me and my 12 year old the past two nights. This magical elixir has helped me back to sleep after waking or being woken repeatedly...."
Meg B
"I am a long-time user of Sassafras Healing Arts products and I appreciate the love and intention included in each of the products, in addition to the incredibly healing ingredients. I believe the fire cider to be a cure-all and the salves are delicious and nourishing. Recently, I have fallen in love with the Feel Myself face and body cream and I have never been happier with a face lotion. My skin absorbs the cream in a way that leaves my face feeling soft and moist, even in the coldest of temperatures. Thank you Sassafras Healing Arts <3"
Michelle F
"I wanted to thank you again for the Muscle Melt Salve. I leave it on my desk and use it on my hands when they're feeling dry or cold... or when I'm feeling stressed and annoyed. It's lovely! :) I type and use my mouse all day, and the skin on my hands just can't take winter weather and the harsh soap at work. My hands almost always hurt, are freezing cold, and the skin looks like wadded up tissue paper no matter what kind of lotion I use. I tried Sassafras's Muscle Melt Salve on them and was shocked at how much better my hands felt right away. The circulation increased, the pain lessened, and the color and elasticity came back to my skin immediately after rubbing it in! The wonderful fragrance made me hate my job a little less, too :) Thank you!! Keep up the great work!"
Kathy M

Bodywork
i want to share how much i have appreciated working with cheré @sassafrashealingarts over the last year and a half. i have had the great privilege to meet for monthly cranio-sacral bodywork sessions which have given me resource to connect more fully with my body and all the energies and patterns that are within me, and to learn how to release them. then, as a member of their community supported herbalism in which i get a quarterly package of medicines made by them benefiting from their tender creative tinctures to prepare for all the shifts in the seasons and stars. and then i was guided and encouraged to dive deeper into my relationship with history and the land and medicinal herbs with the herbal remembering apprenticeship, where we met monthly with cheré and others to do collective work with herbs. and even more recently we have explored ways we, with our common nordic ancestral lines, can connect with and learn about our culture and reclaim traditions lost and remember, together. i am blessed to work with them and can say without a doubt that their contributions to my healing process has brought me into a more-powerful-compassionate-alive-awake person in what feels like many many years. i look forward to all the ways we can continue to learn from each other.
if you are seeking a kind and generous healer, who is humble and knowledgeable and bold, who has a caring heart and grounding energy, who has skills in bodywork, herbs and consults, cupping and astrological guidance— i invite you to learn more about their work and what their offerings can bring to your healing journey. check them out.

One of my cherished mentors was teaching me about Saturn returns, telling me about how Saturn teaches us our boundaries + limitations, and also how we hold ourselves back. It is {one of} the only planets with boundaries (its rings), and it teaches us that boundaries bring expansiveness into our lives. Saturn also heralds the transitions of the stages of human life: from birth we are the maiden/child, around our 30th birthday we become the mother/parent, and in our 60s we transition to the croneship. Children learn, we are learning and unlearning how to teach and what it means to be taught until we are 30 {and beyond)! And that is when we begin to learn what it means to be teachers!! My saturn return begins in March of 2020 and, as I'm sure boundaries are on a lot of ppl's minds right now thx to the eclipses and recent new moon/astro movements, I'm Revisiting/Expanding Into my Boundaries as much as I can & relishing in the Freedoms I am afforded when I say no.
cheré suzette bergeron is a healer who practices with an intuitive/emergent approach, I had gone to see them for a craniosacral session but our conversation beforehand found its way to astrology & they honored this by teaching me about ephemeris and how they are used by astrologers via a deeper discussion about Saturn and its place in, and influence on, our lives. they have been a teacher, healer, and friend to me for several years. I trust them to join me in pursuing whatever my healing goals may be, in a way that shows reverence for cultural tradition AND indigenous sovereignty, and dreams of a way of showing dignified care for beloved community. I have learned so much from them and they hold space for me to reconnect with myself and the ways that we can all contribute to building a better world.

cheré was very flexible with allowing me to get some much needed, self care scheduled. And they made the experience absolutely grounding and provided care for me that was transformational. They live and show up by their values and that means a lot to me. Can't wait to see them again. I would recommend for anyone having doubts about the importance of body work and self love to have a session with cheré and experience their multiple talents as a community provider.

So my lower back is almost ALWAYS in pain but it hasn't hurt since our session. You have magick healing witch hands. It's so great omg thank you so much.

cheré suzette bergeron is a healer who practices with an intuitive/emergent approach, I had gone to see them for a craniosacral session but our conversation beforehand found its way to astrology & they honored this by teaching me about ephemeris and how they are used by astrologers via a deeper discussion about Saturn and its place in, and influence on, our lives. they have been a teacher, healer, and friend to me for several years. I trust them to join me in pursuing whatever my healing goals may be, in a way that shows reverence for cultural tradition AND indigenous sovereignty, and dreams of a way of showing dignified care for beloved community. I have learned so much from them and they hold space for me to reconnect with myself and the ways that we can all contribute to building a better world.

cheré was very flexible with allowing me to get some much needed, self care scheduled. And they made the experience absolutely grounding and provided care for me that was transformational. They live and show up by their values and that means a lot to me. Can't wait to see them again. I would recommend for anyone having doubts about the importance of body work and self love to have a session with cheré and experience their multiple talents as a community provider.

“I highly highly highly recommend Placenta Encapsulation by my good friend Cheré of Sassafras Healing Arts. I appreciate the intention they set, their artistry, their years of knowledge and study, and the love involved in this service. They do important and life changing and life affirming work. In addition, Cheré has also whipped up some custom teas and tinctures for me in the past as well for fatigue and insomnia. They have all types of services available that go beyond birth/pre/post natal needs and into helping with common afflictions. Thank you 🙏🏽, I am so grateful to call yo my friend! Love you bud ♥️😊♥️“
