Plant Spirit Medicine: A Guide to Making Healing Products from Nature

Description

Plant spirit medicine: what is it? Our modern world is travelling at such a speed, we have become separated from the natural world, which should be sustaining us physically, emotionally and spiritually. This book is about reconnecting with nature and the plants in our environment; it's also about learning to listen to the plants and applying what they have to tell us to mend that disconnection. Indigenous peoples from all around the world have worked with plant spirits for thousands of years, and this is how they came to know what specific plants were used for. In this book, you will learn how to listen to the plant spirits and how to access the medicine available through plants. You will also learn about plant spirit medicine making, from drying herbs to extracting plant properties to infusing oils, as well as how to make ointments, lotions, creams, smudge sticks and many more herbal products. Plant Spirit Medicine Making can help heal the parts of our soul and psyche that so desperately need it at this time in the story of humanity.

Nicola McIntosh was born in New Zealand and has lived in Australia most of her life. Celtic blood runs through her veins, having a family lineage from predominantly Scotland, as well as England and Ireland. Having travelled there she understood she was tied to the land, tied to the history, a part of the energies that still reside there. Practicing Celtic shamanism brought it all together for her, and through this work, Nicola has been able to connect with the energies to bring through the Celtic messages from the Otherworlds. www.spiritstone.com.au She resides on Tamborine Mountain.
