Plant Spirit Medicine

A Journey into the Healing Wisdom of Plants

De: Eliot Cowan

Narrado por: Paul Brion

Whether you live in a mountain cabin or a city loft, plant spirits present themselves to us everywhere. Since its first edition in 1995, Plant Spirit Medicine has passed among countless audiences drawn to indigenous spirituality and all things alive and green. In this updated edition, Eliot Cowan invites us to discover the healing power of plants - not merely their physical medicinal properties, but the deeper wisdom and gifts that they offer.

Enriched by many new insights, this guide unfolds as a series of chapters on how plant spirit medicine helped Cowan resolve specific challenges in his own healing journey and in his work with others. In the telling, we learn how plant spirits can directly communicate with and aid all of us, including:

• Plant spirit medicine's five-element view of healing
• Ways to assess our own states of health and balance
• Receiving guidance from plants, including those found within herbal preparations
• New passages on community and sacred plants such as peyote, marijuana, and tobacco
• Additional interviews with plant shamans across diverse traditions, and more

If you love nature read this

A book about nature's healing powers. Tip: it is greater than ever imagined! You will not look at nature the same way ever again. This book made me cry in grief like I betrayed someone and I just remembered how important it was for me.
The book was easy to listen to and I went through quickly as I was fascinated by it, but I plan to reread/listen as it poses questions I need to ponder about.

deep and insightful

This book was very helpful and I reccomend it to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of the plant world

Beautiful, rich and intriguing.

Possibly the best work of nonfiction I’ve ever read.
The information and experiences relayed are phenomenal, and the writing is beautiful.

Outstanding Wisdom!

This book is very powerful in knowledge, stories & wisdom… May all humanity wake up to the truth “We are one”!

One to add to the collection for sure

Delightful, and very intriguing and will give any reader a curious new perspective on life and a new vision of everything around us. I'll be listening to this one again.

Such an interesting read!!!

I have studied shamanic practices and energy work for many many years. This book has taken these topics to a whole another level, working with the spirit of the plants. Of course it makes so much sense! Thank you so much for sharing this important information. I have recommended this book to many people in my Shamanic work.

Exceptional

The information in this book has started in me the beginning of a wonderful journey.

Medicine Sharing

Loved the sharing of medicine!
It is time to share our stories. Eliot brought it forward in a good way.

A practice I have followed very simular to the author for years.

This brings further confirmation of how I have worked with nature for years and the amazing spirits abound. I continue to go forth in learning my confidence and my true being and purpose. So much was said in this book I have tried to show and help others with. I am not crazy as some may have said over time.. my soul knows the truth and I must continue to go forth with no fear to help this world in need. Helping others remember, find balance and heal with natures spirits. Much love from this Dragon soul. 🐲🌹❤️

superb content; distracting narrator cadence

Love the content. Not to be unkind, but I wasn't sure I could finish it due to the narrator's "forced" cadence and pronounciation. The content motivated me to finish. Would read again....in print format.
