Herbal Wisdom


Exploring Plant Traditions, Folklore & Everyday Uses

This is where my love of plants, nature, old wisdom, and asking entirely too many questions all end up growing together. I want to know the story behind every plant. What was it traditionally used for? What folklore grew around it? What did it symbolize? What energetic associations were connected to it? How have people prepared it, worked with it, and passed its wisdom from one generation to the next? One question usually leads to another. Before I know it, I have several books open, herbs spread across my table, and an entirely new section being added to one of my binders. Herbal Wisdom is where I gather what I am learning about herbs, traditional plant uses, botanical folklore, tea blends, tinctures, salves, gardening, lunar practices, planetary correspondences, and the many ways plants have found their way into our lives and traditions. I am still learning too. This is not me pretending to have every answer or telling you what belongs in your practice. Think of this as my herbal notebook left open, filled with discoveries, questions, experiments, and notes for us to explore together. Brew yourself a cup of tea, bring your curiosity, and let’s see what the plants have to teach us.
