LOH: Terry Willard
I got way broader information than I dreamed when I decided to lead in with a question of how plants related to his elective course on Mayan Prophecy!
Medicinal Mushrooms, Herbs & Flower Essences
He’s studied with shamans, has a Ph.D., is a Master Herbalist and has an enlightening perspective on plants, fear and making independent, informed choices.
What a gift to be able to consider the wisdom of the plant kingdom:
- We learned that mushrooms have ancient and developed memory out to 899 generations (but not beyond)
- Flowers only have positive emotion, even Bleeding Hearts and the scentless ‘essence’ is different from the ‘essential oil’
- Each plant has a personality that needs to be considered in recommending treatment and approach to health
Herbology can be taken at the most superficial chemical level, or deeper and deeper (or higher and higher) in honor and approach especially considering we are global citizens who have independence and the ability to choose our way of honoring ourselves and others.
Flower essences in particular assist in balancing our emotions which, along with the herbs can help protect us from all that life throws at us from H1N1 to the economy.
It’s amazing to think that plants can help us with everything from feeling overwhelmed to immunity support.
