This book is dedicated to those who seek a remedy of which this world cannot heal alone.

Story Medicine offers a remedial well of story, prose and poetry that aids every soul-sickness.

Ancient traditions have known the combined power of emotion, nature and story for centuries. They harnessed it through song, myth, fairytale, folklore, archetype and poetry; administering a specific story to a patient whose imbalances could not be understood by the mind alone. Something much more potent was needed for the one who suffered from deep beneath the human bone.


These days, we live in a type of soul-famine from the story medicine that used to nourish and connect us to the greater order of the cosmos - to our place in the natural world and our purpose in the community. 


But we still have the ability to self-medicate, and it is equally potent.


These stories have been wildcrafted from the wilderness: the one within and without - the one above and below – the one we live in now and the one our ancestors call us back to through the eaves. They seam the two worlds together to make medicine for deep and restorative healing. 


It is said that there is a story remedy for every soul-sickness you experience in your life. All you have to do is find it... 


This book will offer you the remedial seeds of symbolic, metaphoric and emotive language, so that you may begin to plant your own medicinal garden within yourself.
