"If you're not feeling your best, most-likely, you need Prana. And each of these tools infuses the cells with Prana for the deepest nourishment.

These tools have saved my life. I have been told by other women the same. We have all been at the bottom of our barrel, no more to give, anxious, and barely making it through the day. And maybe you're there right at this moment. Over-taxed, over-giving, giving every last drop of yourself for your family, your career, just to get by." - Adena Rose If you've enjoyed the podcast, please let us know!

If there was nothing to fix, cure or save…what would your relationship with plants look/feel like?

There are many approaches to the pathway of herbal practice. Today, we will explore an earth-centered approach to the intersection of plants, people and place. If we are to begin at the beginning, coming to understand the land upon which we live, the plants that have chosen this place as home and humans place in it is a place to start. Seeing place as source is to set out upon a life of discovery.

As you settle into place by developing relationships with the plants around you, you'll begin sensing a vibration or resonance with place. When committed, on a daily basis, to bringing plants into your body that you have gathered, your awareness begins to extend into place.

Light takes on a whole new quality. You begin to see and feel how water affects all life around you. The moist fire of creation begins to make sense and a sense of connection begins developing. Tiny, invisible threads, mycelium-like in nature, begin weaving you into a web of creation. The Language of the Land starts taking root within your very being.

Health, wholeness, holiness becomes a way of life wherever you are. Tending the invisible, the hidden half of nature is a generative path. Join me on the dark side, where you'll learn how plants turn sunlight into cookies and how minerals, plants and animals depend on this fantastic bubbling cauldron going on all the time to succeed.

Listen in on this class that Dan de Lion of Return to Nature (www.returntonature.us) taught at The Inner Warrior (www.theinnerwarriorlou.com). He explores three in depth topics which are very misunderstood and rarely discussed, but can help students of yoga learn the underlying philosophical principles bring deeper meaning to our practice. In this talk, Dan draws upon these ancient traditions to help ground your current yoga practice to reestablish the ancient mantra "As above, and so below" which helps us to realize that our body and our energetic centers are a microcosm for studying the entire universe. These are the ancient teachings which help us to grow awareness toward the alchemical vessel that we are, and how to train to cleanse and purify the mind body spirit connection, so that we may find our optimal service. Dan De Lion is a Forager, Herbalist, and Musician dedicated to working with Nature to further the healing of the planet and the soul.

This class was recorded at the superb event: The Great Lakes Herb Faire.

If you've not been and you're in the region, I encourage you to try and make it to the 2018 shindig. Here's the details:

Great Lakes Herb Faire September 7 - 9, 2018 Cedar Lake Outdoor Center, 2500 Pierce Rd, Chelsea, Michigan

"We have had three amazing Faires so far and are so looking forward to doing this again! The feedback we received from people who attended was overwhelmingly positive. People were excited to network and meet other herbalists in their communities, learn directly from teachers rather than relying on books, and walk the trails on the surrounding land meeting the herbs in person. There were many kids attending and we heard from parents and the kids themselves that they couldn't wait to come back next year! There was amazing energy from everyone, the food was delicious and the marketplace was loaded with fantastic herbal creations." -Anna Fernandez

I had the great fortune of attending the 2017 Faire (as a representative for Mountain Rose Herbs) and I concur on all of that. And yes, the food was phenomenal!

If interested in purchasing recordings from the 2016 and 2017 Faires (for a great price) you can do so here>> RECORDINGS

Here's the description for the class from the website:

We will create a template that methodically takes the practitioner through the steps of a clinical visit. First we collect the information from the intake form and with the patient generate a plan to get to our therapeutic goals. We describe what is required to go from our beginning point (now) to our end point (therapeutic goal). The descriptions become action categories within body systems. We select herbs using a set of rules or selection criteria from lists (provided) and write them down. From the many herbs listed we will then organize and de-select by simple rules. Once pared down we check our formula to see that it will bring the patient to their desired goal. We do a little math and we have a prescription for health.

A huge thanks to Anna and John for sharing the class!
