    About this ebook

    This book is designed to help you reach full potential and unlock true holism through the help of plant allies. It is through countless hours of personal research and exploration that I created a guide to becoming your own herbal practitioner, by encouraging exploration and creativity in conjunction with wise and time-tested knowledge. Herbalism, as a transformative art, is a way to get back to our roots and the source of potent medicine that our ancestors have used for millennia before us. Herbalism can help us be self-sufficient instead of relying on store-bought products that are filled with toxins. You will get to understand yours herbs via a thorough introduction to the various spheres of herbalism, the history and cultural contexts, and how the practice can improve your life, highlighting all the purposes from the sacred to the mundane.

    This book will take you through the science of herbalism and how the constituents interact with your body to produce herbal actions. Then it will lay down context for growing, harvesting, and finally, creating your own herbal apothecary. Lastly and certainly not least, it will go over all the ways that you can have a sustainable and earth- friendly practice through the principles of wildcrafting, permaculture, and biodynamics.
