Plant medicine and holistic wellness consultation with a supportive and root-cause approach
A village-scale health care model has time to hear our stories, to weave together all the details, to check in and see how things are going. It acknowledges that context, collective wellness, and the myriad interdependent relationships that connect us are as important or more so than the individual details of our ease or dis-ease. It is a model that strives to be accessible, it does not attempt to fly over our heads. In fact, the wellspring for such work may reside right under our feet in the green spaces of our lives.
On an evolutionary scale the relationship between healing plants and humans has in large part made us who we are. It has been said that herbal medicine in one fashion or another is the oldest form of medicine in the world. In this regard it is no surprise to find it is often turned to as the “people’s medicine". There is no small repository of oral, empirical and written knowledge that attests to the tenacious versatility and efficacy of plant medicine.
Plant medicine can act quickly and decisively in some cases, but it is often gradual and gentle, which means it has the capacity to be deep medicine. This also means that in our time it is a rare gift. Practiced with care it generally does not make demands on us but instead works as a catalyst so that we might have a chance to experience real and lasting positive adaptation. In this way it respects our body intelligence and innate capacity for repair.
