Produktbeschreibung
SHAMANISM / HERBALISM Medicine Grove offers guidelines for incorporating herbs into one's spiritual life. A comprehensive herbal, listing common herbs as well as wild plants of North America, it is based on Loren Cruden's lifetime of work with Earth-based spiritual practices. Medicine Grove includes chapters on gathering wild herbs, finding plant allies in the wilderness, and using herbs in shamanic ceremonies. A complete materia medica provides practical information for all herbs discussed. Cruden combines her own firsthand experiences with a profound knowledge of indigenous traditions. She explains which herbs are best for seasonal ceremonies, smudging, and making offerings, and tells how to purify a sacred space. Covering topics such as vision quests, consciousness-altering, and the special connections between certain herbs and totem animals, Medicine Grove brings the herbal into sacred territory. LOREN CRUDEN leads shamanic workshops and sweat lodge ceremonies throughout the Northwest. She is the author of The Spirit of Place, Coyote's Council Fire, and Compass of the Heart. She lives on First Thought Mountain in Washington State.
Autorenporträt
Loren Cruden (1952–2022), midwife and herbal healer, lived on a mountain in Washington State in a house that she and her son built. Following spiritual studies in Europe, Asia, and Africa, her six years of work with Lewis Sawaquat, a Potawatomie pipe carrier, deepened her engagement with the spirituality that is native to the land. Respectful of the integrity of Native American ways, she drew carefully on those and other Earth-oriented traditions to create an eclectic yet authentic spiritual practice that relied on a direct experience of the interrelatedness of all life. She is the author of Love Is Green: An Herbal for Parents, The Living Earth Tarot Deck, The Spirit of Place, Compass of the Heart, and Medicine Grove.
