By approaching a plant with an empty mind and open heart, it is possible to allow the patterns and meaning of a plant to emerge and to understand nature in a truly holistic way. Goethe maintained that this practice, while rigorous, allows for the development of the observer themselves. We will take two fifteen-minute breaks during the class for participants to go outside and practice these exercises.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eRelated product: \u003c\/span\u003eThe PowerPoint for this recording is available\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehere:\u003cspan style=\"background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/2021-Medicines-from-the-Earth-Herb-Symposium-Book-Download-PDF\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e2021 Medicines from the Earth Herb Symposium: Conference Book Download (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Botanical Medicine","offers":[{"title":"Video","offer_id":50603419664600,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio","offer_id":50602276782296,"sku":"21ME09","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/3519\/6376\/files\/Audio-File_e13debaa-a345-48e9-a99d-fadc5514917c.png?v=1752121369"},{"product_id":"keynote-panel-honoring-our-teachers-stories-from-the-early-years-of-modern-herbalism","title":"21ME26 - Keynote Panel: Honoring Our Teachers – Stories from the Early Years of Modern Herbalism","description":"\u003cp\u003ePanelists: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Frances-Deborah\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDeborah Frances, ND\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Maier-Kat\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKat Maier, RH (AHG)\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Bove-Mary\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMary Bove, ND\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Proefrock-Kenneth\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e  What brought you to the path of healing with botanical medicine?

In similar fashion, we walk back through Eliade's work and draw out the botanical agents that have been used worldwide as plant allies and inducers of altered states of consciousness by the people that Eliade described as Shamanistic'. We will discuss current and historical uses of the traditionally shamanic' Siberian plant allies tobacco (Nicotiana spp) and Amanita muscaria as well as the similarly employed Native American plant allies Haemia salicifolia, Salvia divinorum, Ephedra spp, Trichocereus pachanoi, Sophora secondiflora, Datura spp, Ipomoea violacea, and Anadenanthera colubrina and peregrina.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eRelated product: \u003c\/span\u003eThe PowerPoint for this recording is available\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehere:\u003cspan style=\"background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/2022-Medicines-from-the-Earth-Herb-Symposium-Book-Download-PDF\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e2022 Medicines from the Earth Herb Symposium Book Download (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Botanical Medicine","offers":[{"title":"Video","offer_id":50603415830744,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio","offer_id":50602268852440,"sku":"22ME09","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/3519\/6376\/files\/Audio-File_c4e5dcf2-114e-45b8-8ce7-d45ece22b3ba.png?v=1752121280"},{"product_id":"spirituality-and-healing-the-meaning-and-practice-of-spiritual-care-in-medicine","title":"22ME19 - Spirituality and Healing – The Meaning and Practice of Spiritual Care in Medicine","description":"\u003cp\u003eSpeaker: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Botanical-Medicine-Speakers\/Yance-Donald\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDonald Yance, CN, RH (AHG)\u003c\/a\u003e Spirituality plays a prominent role in the lives of most patients whether or not they formally adhere to a specific religion and belief.
