    Unlock the Secret Language of Plants: A Spiritual Journey to Heal Yourself & the Planet
    Apr 27 2025
    Host: Jason Rigby Guest: Pam Montgomery Guest Website: wakeuptonature.com Podcast Mission: Higher and Saint Living (HDL) aims to explore profound topics that elevate consciousness and foster a deeper connection to the world around us. In this episode, we dive into humanity’s relationship with nature and the transformative power of plants with Pam Montgomery. About Our Guest: Pam Montgomery Pam Montgomery is an author, teacher, international speaker, and self-described Earth Elder who has dedicated over three decades to exploring the intelligent and spiritual nature of plants and trees. She is the author of two acclaimed books: Plant Spirit Healing: A Guide to Working with Plant Consciousness and Partner Earth: A Spiritual Ecology. Her latest work, Co-Creating with Nature: Healing the Wound of Separation, serves as the foundation for this episode’s discussion. Pam operates the Partner Earth Education Center at Sweetwater Sanctuary in Danby, Vermont, a space dedicated to co-creative research and sustainable living with nature. She teaches globally on plant spirit healing, spiritual ecology, and the concept of humans as "Nature Evolutionaries." Pam is a founding member of United Plant Savers and the Organization of Nature Evolutionaries (O.N.E.), and her current passion lies in facilitating plant initiations to guide humanity back to its symbiotic roots.

The sanctuary fosters a profound connection with nature, enhancing the sense of sanctuary for all who visit. Episode Overview In this episode of the HDL Podcast, host Jason Rigby sits down with Pam Montgomery to explore her book Co-Creating with Nature: Healing the Wound of Separation. Recorded on March 29, 2025, this conversation dives into the consciousness of plants, their role as our elders and partners, and how reconnecting with nature can heal both ourselves and the planet. Pam blends scientific insights, personal anecdotes, and spiritual wisdom to offer a practical yet profound roadmap for living in harmony with "sweet Lady Gaia." Key Discussion Points 1. Plants as Conscious Partners (03:12 - 06:46) Pam argues that plants are not just alive but conscious beings capable of communicating with us through vibratory resonance (light and sound).She emphasizes their essential role in sustaining life—providing oxygen, food, and medicine—and warns that our disconnect from them is dangerous.Jason references scientific studies showing plants responding to music and words, sparking a discussion on how everything vibrates, including humans and plants. 2. How to Communicate with Plants (06:46 - 13:14) Pam explains that plants fine-tune their resonance to us more effectively than we do to them because they are simply themselves, undistributed by human distractions.Practical tip: Be present with a plant, let it choose you (via attraction, movement, or intuition), and notice the sensations it evokes in your body (e.g., tingling, softness).She introduces biophotons—particles of light at the nucleus of our cells—that create a "laser" of coherence for two-way communication with plants, even across time and space. 3. Plant Initiations and Healing (13:14 - 18:06) Pam contrasts chasing external spiritual practices (e.g., gurus, crystals) with the power of "backyard weeds" like mugwort, which can heal us deeply through symbiotic connection.She shares a story of poke root appearing in her Vermont garden in 2020, a potent immune-supporting plant, as an example of nature responding to human needs.Plants show up where they’re needed, offering gifts we often overlook due to our lack of attention. 4. The Wound of Separation (19:11 - 22:22) Pam traces humanity’s separation from nature back 12,000 years to agriculture and empire-building, which led to an "amnesia" of our interdependence with the land.This original wound has cascading effects: separation from self, others, and the planet, resulting in widespread illness and disconnection.Biophilia—our innate love of nature—underscores how we’re designed to live closely with plants. 5. Uncomfortable Truths and Nature Evolutionaries (22:58 - 26:17) The biggest lie we tell ourselves: Humans are the "crown of creation" and more intelligent than nature. Pam challenges this, citing Darwin’s coerced narrative and nature’s model of cooperation over competition.On her website, wakeuptonature.com, Pam calls us to become "Nature Evolutionaries," partnering with nature rather than relying solely on technology to "save" the planet. 6. Nature’s Communication Networks (26:17 - 33:11) Pam shares a powerful story of a Puyo—an underground waterway ...

  • The Secret Your Dog’s Been Hiding – Decode Their Soul in 5 Minutes!

    The Secret Your Dog’s Been Hiding – Decode Their Soul in 5 Minutes!
    Apr 22 2025
    Host: Jason Rigby Guest: Elizabeth Anne Johnson, Animal Healer and Author Book: Know Your Dog’s True Nature: Understanding Canine Personality through the Five Elements (Findhorn Press/Inner Traditions Episode Overview In this enlightening episode of the HDL Podcast, host Jason Rigby welcomes Elizabeth Anne Johnson, an animal healer with nearly 40 years of experience and the author of Know Your Dog’s True Nature. Together, they explore the ancient Five Element Theory from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as a sacred map to understanding canine personalities and the profound spiritual bond between humans and dogs. From the soul-level pact forged centuries ago to the karmic mirroring of rescue dogs, this conversation unveils how our furry companions guide us toward healing, self-discovery, and a deeper connection to nature. Key Segments and Highlights Introduction (00:00 - 01:06) Jason’s Welcome: Jason introduces the episode with enthusiasm, highlighting Elizabeth’s book and its promise to decode the soul of dogs through the Five Elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. He frames dogs as more than pets—sacred guides reconnecting us to our wild hearts.Elizabeth’s Greeting: Elizabeth expresses her excitement to join Jason and dive into this fun, spiritual exploration. The Ancient Soul Pact Between Humans and Dogs (01:06 - 04:47) Question: Jason references a poetic line from the book—“Dogs too have endured and thrived beside us as we have beside them”—and asks about the soul-level pact humans made with dogs centuries ago.Elizabeth’s Insight: She describes this pact as rooted in “kindred respect” between two natural beings—humans and dogs—meeting with curiosity and a sense of safety.Historically, dogs helped humans hunt and find food, while humans offered warmth, companionship, and protection. This 50-50 exchange has evolved into a modern pact where humans strive to hear dogs’ voices and honor their wild essence.Practical Tip: Elizabeth encourages letting dogs spend time outdoors to stimulate their senses, a nod to their feral roots, enhancing the bond and their happiness. The Five Elements: An Elemental Awakening (04:47 - 05:13) Jason’s Prompt: Quoting the book’s line about the Five Elements providing “X-ray vision” into a dog’s personality, Jason sets the stage for a deep dive into Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water, noting their dual role in understanding dogs and ourselves.Elizabeth’s Macro View: She frames the Five Element Theory as a 5,000-year-old, nature-based “mindful guidance system” fostering compassion, empathy, and understanding across species.Rooted in her personal journey—finding solace in nature amid a challenging childhood—the theory connects behaviors to natural cycles, offering a lens beyond mere archetypes. Exploring the Five Elements (05:13 - 39:09) 1. Wood Element: Spring and Growth (07:46 - 14:22) Overview: Associated with spring, Wood dogs are determined, purposeful “army sergeants” (e.g., Belgian Malinois, German Shepherds, Rottweilers) excelling as working dogs in military or police roles.Traits: Athletic, fearless, competitive, with a need for movement and direction. Their emotional default is anger, manifesting as aggression or frustration in dogs.Spiritual Angle: Jason probes the interplay of energies when Wood dogs’ growth isn’t guided. Elizabeth explains their energy seeks movement; without clear boundaries, they take over, reflecting a need for humans to lead with presence and heart-centered direction rather than force.Practical Tip: Set consistent boundaries and offer gentle praise (“good dog”) to channel their potential, avoiding overstimulation with excessive rewards. 2. Fire Element: Summer and Joy (14:22 - 22:32) Overview: Fire dogs embody summer’s joy, acting as magnetic “divas” (e.g., Golden Retrievers, Border Collies with red hues) who thrive on social connection and adoration.Traits: Charismatic, playful, prone to separation anxiety, with barking and licking as their sense expressions (tongue). Their emotional default is “disturbance of the Shen” (panic, anxiety) when overstimulated.Spiritual Angle: Fire’s heart-centric nature leaves lasting impressions, reflecting humanity’s draw to fire for warmth and memory-making. Elizabeth shares how these dogs linger in people’s hearts long after they’re gone.Practical Tip: Ground yourself and use the Yin Tang acupoint (between the eyebrows) to calm their heart fire, restoring balance during anxiety spikes. 3. Earth Element: Late Summer and Nurturing (22:32 - 24:50) Overview: Earth dogs, tied to late summer, are quintessential caregivers (e.g., Labs) who love family, kids, and routine, offering gentle, nurturing energy.Traits: Kind, generous, slow-moving, with a knack for service roles like Reading with Rover or disease detection. Their emotional default is worry or obsession.Spiritual Angle: Mirroring ...
