Speaker: Kiva Rose, Herbalist and Author
In this transformative keynote, Kiva Rose explores the profound interplay between the natural world and human healing. Drawing on decades of herbal practice and ecological immersion, she delves into the numinous beauty of plants as not merely as tools but as partners in an intricate dance of connection and wonder.
Kiva invites attendees to move beyond reductionist views of the materia medica, embracing plants as agents of enchantment and transformation. With vivid stories from her wilderness apothecary and personal reflections from her practice, she reveals how the sensory and spiritual dimensions of plant work bridge the mundane and the sacred. This talk reawakens our intrinsic bond to the more-than-human world, offering a path toward ecological harmony, personal wellness, and the healing truths of mystery itself. Attendees will leave inspired to rediscover the awe and interconnectedness at the heart of the green world, emboldened to carry its healing gifts into their lives and practices.
