Grieving is an integral part of being human. Through this lens, Emily Pearson Ryan from Lowland Plant Medicine will talk about the different times that grief appears in a person’s life and the many ways that plants can be supportive in those times. She will discuss acute trauma and loss and gentle approaches to offering care with herbs during those times. We’ll also talk about recognizing and tending grief in more ordinary times. Throughout our time together, we’ll be naming and honoring some of the many plants who offer particular support for grief, while also welcoming the medicine that any plant can offer.
