Product Description

As humans evolved on Earth they used plants for everything imaginable - food, weapons, baskets, clothes, shelter and medicine. Indigenous peoples the world over have been able to gather knowledge of plant uses by communicating directly with plants and honouring the sacred relationship between themselves and the plant world. In "Sacred Plant Medicine", Stephen Harrod Buhner, looks at the long-standing relationship between indigenous peoples and plants, and examines the techniques and states of mind these cultures use to communicate with the plant world. He explores the sacred dimension of plant and human interactions and the territory where plants are an expression of Spirit. For each healing plant described in the book, Buhner presents medicinal uses, preparatory guidelines and ceremonial elements such as prayers and medicine songs associated with its use.

Review
?The first in-depth analysis of the processes used by Native Americans to communicate with the plant world for the purposes of healing human illness. It is a work long overdue by an author who himself ?talks? with plants as Native Americans have always done.?
