a Recent Conversation about Plant Medicine

In a recent conversation, someone reminded me that I once said 'plant medicines are a shortcut for practiced meditation'.. 
I was wrong.
The generous medicines the plants provide are much.. much more. They address healing of the mind, of the body, of emotions, of spirit.. They connect you back to I.. before I became I am ... before I became I am this or I am that. These plants medicines connect you to other dimensions... allow you to see energy.. to feel energy more deeply.. They assist in our connection back to all, to the animals, to the plants, to each other, to ourselves.
Mother Earth provided many gifts to us through plants and her many creations. There is reason they all exist. There is reason generations of the indigenous peoples of the earth have embraced plants the way they do.. natives of India, of South America, of North America, of Australia, of the vast lands of Africa, etc. 
Meditation can (and should be) practiced throughout the day, not simply by sitting in quietness.. but through all you do. Being present, accepting what is, and doing all you do with dedication ❤ 
Plant medicines and meditation can go hand and hand but they are not the same. Plant medicines can help you on your journey with meditation, but they bring to the table so much more.
Learning as I go, sharing as I learn..
Embracing the gifts of our Creator more and more, every day ❤
