Welcome,
I am so glad you are here.
My personal healing journey all started with a bowl of tea. I found the language of plants, and we have been kindred spirits ever since. My purpose is to share plant medicine to help inspire more to converse with the plant kingdom through food, herbs, and other practices that cultivate our vital life force.
