We Are Children of This Planet

I’m currently talking a herbal medicine course. I’m really changing my perspective on how I interact with the world and with plants. It’s all about relationships!

“We are made of the same elements as those of the Earth and are subject to the same laws. The very minerals that form the structure of the Earth form the structure of our bodies.

The energy that fuelled creation is present at our conception.

The fluid that flows across the landscape and gives life to all moves through our bodies, nourishing and cleansing.

And the wind that blows across the Earth fills our lungs with breath and brings the rains.

We are children of this planet.” 🌏
