You Are an Earth Healer
We all know (or are coming to understand) that we can heal ourselves through the natural medicines of the Earth. But for those of us who are drawn to herbal healing, the pull isn’t just to experience the medicine without, but a call to explore the medicine that exists within. The medicine that we know, deep down,…
The Earth Cares About You
It might be one of the hardest things to earnestly trust. It most likely rubs up against one of your earliest beliefs, one you took on in order to protect yourself from the heartache of being human in this world. But the truth still remains, like a spring running continuously over the road. The…
How to Recognize Magic
Magic is like the wind in spring. It’s all around us, but normally we can’t see it. When I was little I believed in this magic innately. As an adult, however, it took some time for me to really see again. Once I let myself soften into the trust that magic truly is real, though,…

Through the years of coming to recognize just how tender my own inner landscape can be, I’ve realized that, instead of being a hindrance, my sensitivity is actually what enables me to see those…
Pussy Healing is Earth Healing
I’m passionate about earth healing. It is, in many ways, my reason for being. You’re here because, most likely, it’s part of your passion too.
