ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This episode is Part 2 of the Sacred Plant Series: Overused & Abused. Over this series, we will be interviewing various guests who hold deep connections to these plants to shed some light on how we can work with them consciously, as well as alternatives
In Part 2 in today's episode we bring to light to our next power plants that are overused in our culture, Palo Santo, Sage, Cannabis, Ayahuasca & Psilocybin Mushrooms. We encourage some deeper critical thinking questions like who is actually harvesting the plants, are we supporting them/are they getting fair wage, what are the conditions these plants are growing in, are the plants being treated with respect? Because it all matters
In this episode M.K blesses herself with the nourishing support of Mullein (Verbascum thapsus), Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca), Yarrow (Achillea millefolium), Cleavers (Galium aparine), Oat Tops (Avena sativa), Lavender (Lavendula officinale), Wood Betony (Pedicularis canadensis), Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata), Powder Blend Mushroom Blend - Brian & Body by Host Defense
Jesse Rose sipped on Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica) & Dandelion Flower (Taraxacum officinale) that she foraged on her farm, and shares about her intimate relationship with them both
It is our purest hope that this episode inspires and encourages you to establish a deeper relationship with some of these power plants & plants in general. Stay tuned for a deeper dive into each power plant and as always we are endlessly grateful you are on this journey with us and send so much light to your reconnection with the Earth, yourself, and the collective!
