This three-day workshop will explore the cosmic and earthly aspects of healing with plants.
On day one we will explore the relationship of the plant to the other kingdoms — the soil, the animals, humans, and the cosmos itself. We will look at the plant as a being between Earth and cosmos and how plants reveal themselves in the form of a healing plant.
Day two will focus on bringing the insights gained from the first day into practical usage. The three workshop leaders will each choose 1-3 plants and take the workshop attendees on a journey. One will learn how and why these plants heal, how to grow them, and how to process them and/or how to garden with them.
On day three we will ask the following two questions: What herbs are needed for our time? And what is our role as humans when working with the Earth and nature? What is one way each of us does or can participate in supporting the well-being of our diverse communities? There will be leading thoughts first, followed by a dialogue with all participants.
