Maria Noël Groves, RH (AHG) (she/her) is a bestselling author of the award-winning, best-selling Body into Balance and Grow Your Own Herbal Remedies. She is also the owner of Wintergreen Botanicals Herbal Clinic & Education Center in New Hampshire. Maria writes and teaches nationally about herbal medicine and offers both on site and distance herbal study courses and health consultations. She melds evidence based medicine, traditional Western herbalism, food based nutrition, and personal clinical experience. She is a regular contributor to Herb Quarterly, Mother Earth Living, Mother Earth News, Taste for Life, and Remedies magazines.

Maria's personal and herbal lineage is predominantly European-American/Western herbalism. She's half Sicilian and Nova Scotian (mix of mostly UK/Irish/Scottish/Welch/French Settlers plus a few Mi'kmaq women). Her work as an herbalist focuses on these Western Euro-American traditions. She has an appreciation and respect for herbalism from other cultures and is in an ongoing effort to decolonize her work with herbs to make it more inclusive and honoring for all people, recognizing, supporting, and giving back to communities that have traditionally and currently been marginalized.

I started out my adult learning journey at the Divinity School of the University of Chicago, studying for my Ph.D. in Theological Ethics. During that time I also became a Certified Rolfer and spent five years studying psychodynamics and energy healing in NYC; I have been an avid student of personal and spiritual development my whole life.

My combined interests and training has supported my personal exploration of the human body and led me to develop an integral approach to the study of human anatomy.  

Over the past 27 years, I have led hundreds of hours of Hands-On Human Dissection Workshops in the laboratory. Through this in-person work, as well as keynote presentations and online programs, I have encouraged thousands of fellow "somanauts" to appreciate, explore, and embody the wonders of the human form.

The material available at www.gilhedley.com represents my current intention to bring Integral Anatomy to the world via online courses, presentations and content designed to cultivate a deeper experience and appreciation of the human form on the part of all who share an interest in the gift of the human body.
