Without a doubt, the plants are speaking to us and through us because this is the time for us to become more conscious about sustainability and how we can truly honor Mamma Gaia. As more people remember the ancestral teachings of plant medicine, we as a collective are about to change the game in the world of healing and medicine by going back to basics. Herbalist and Author of the upcoming Guidebook Plants for the People, Erin Lovell Verinder is here to help us embrace the healing modality of plant medicine so that we can cultivate a deeper symbiotic relationship with the plants.

When I think of shadow work, much of it comes from the pain of our past. Stored in our subconscious minds, if we don’t allow ourselves to come from the perspective that the world is unfolding for us, not to us, we allow ourselves to reclaim our power back. To me, this is what sovereignty is all about. When things arrive that may not be all unicorns and rainbows, we can see it as an opportunity to be the alchemist and choose love, recognizing that the icky stuff is arising to be healed, forgiven, and transmuted to help serve the highest benevolence.
