Wild Apothecary: Reclaiming Plant Medicine for All  – a book! By myself and Claudia Manchanda

‘Wild Apothecary is a beautifully illustrated herbal guide to every stage of life – a practical and creative manual that connects us to the medicinal plants that grow around us and shows us how we might use them to support our health. From babes to elders, and all the life-stages and transitions in between, this is an indispensable handbook designed to celebrate the journey of life and help us overcome some of the challenges we may face along the way.

With recipes for simple medicine-making, self-prescribing and foraging advice, Wild Apothecary is a beginner’s guide to herbalism, for all people, and explores the practical applications of plant medicines for the home or community. Each chapter highlights specific health conditions associated with each phase of life and describes how to work with plant allies and lifestyle changes to promote wellbeing. Rewilding and journaling exercises help the reader go deeper and contemplate their connection with themselves and nature. There is a special chapter on grief, plus an examination of herbal medicine in the context of colonisation.’

You can order it from me and I can sign it for you, or buy it online at Aeon Publishers, Amazon etc.
