Teachings from noticing plants and people …
I’m tired of feeling kindness through politeness, rather than a conversation that’s honest. My nervous system wants to be flexible in truth, even if it’s hard. Nature is real af y’all. What a humbling teacher. . .
“No shame in the hormone game!” -Dr. Bones
We’ve been conditioned to think our hormonal shifts are something to fix, but @doctorbones_ reminds us that they are actually a relationship and rhythm to be honored.
While we can’t stop the ebs and flows of our monthly seasons, we can choose how to support ourselves through them.
Where are you in your hormonal journey right now? How can we support you?🫂✨

Tea after 10 days of a Juniper Diet. Can’t help myself 🧡
Today I will be having some chocolate and salt. Tomorrow I embark on another plant diet. I’m so grateful to do this work. To listen to plants, gain insights from the earth rather than media.
Yesterday I spent hours clearing/curating an outdoor ceremony space so others can do this work.
I’m opening diets with native plants I haven’t heard of anyone else dieting with before. I’m doing this so we can open the pathway for others to do these diets too.
So much is lost in our indigenous wisdom of plants, and I refuse to let that be a roadblock. I don’t have many teachers to show me the way to do this work. So I’m letting the plants guide me. In order to resuscitate our innate wisdom of plants we just gotta get out there and listen. It’s mind blowing how much wisdom can be gathered and how much I can trust in these plants for not only my own healing and spiritual growth, but the healing & growth for others.
This world is kinda cooked, I feel the grief of that every day , but I’ll on sink on this ship smelling roses and tasting honey with a smile on my face.
Big Love 💚

How we do one thing is how we do everything. Our energy immediately informs the moment. I find a meditative ritual to start my day informs how l move throughout the day, and especially how others receive me.
My tea practice asks for deep presence and intentionality in every movement I make. Silence, taking my time, and tuning into the spirit of the tea plant draws a sacred circle spiraling me into my center.
My favorite contemporary philosopher, Byung Chul Han, contemplates how humans have created ritual to make sense out of our existence. There’s a beginning and end, and it gives us meaning and purpose. We live in times where fitness culture and social media hijack the space we need to find ritual.
I cherish silence in our noisy world. I cherish ritual in a time of endless scrolling. I cherish consistently communing with Camillia Sinensis, the tea plant, a wise entity offering endless teachings. It just takes presence and listening to receive her boundless wisdom.
I’m stepping into a deep desire to teach, share, and inspire others to remember this birthright we have as humans connecting to the plant world.

She smells delicious and she got that MUCILAGINOUS quality we love in our medicinal plants. The gel-like liquid coming out of these stunning flowers coats the hair and smooths hair cuticles. Leaving shine and smoothness - nature’s single ingredient conditioner 🫠🫠🫠
✈️ If you find yourself in the tropics, I’ve seen her in Hawaii and Costa Rica, no need to pack shampoo or conditioner!
NATURE IS SO RAD!!!! Don’t forget to put your phone down and geek out on some natural intelligence today 🙏🙏🙏
Children are incredibly receptive to herbal remedies, but for the medicine to truly take root, we must first tend to the mind + body as a whole. 🌿✨
@doctorbones_ shares her go-to herb for pediatric care and supporting the delicate dance of nervous system co-regulation.
Because a regulated child in an unregulated society isn’t just calmer, they’re equipped to handle whatever is thrown at them. ⛰️👣

Nature’s intelligence in full display🌿✨
There is a perfect symmetry to the seasons. It is by no accident that as allergy season arrives, the most effective antihistamine plant begins to bloom. A moment of herbal gratitude for @doctorbones_ sharing her wisdom on how to honor these cycles.
