Kneeling to the Earth: Herbalism is Remembering - Rosemary Gladstar

Soft power, honoring our elders, and banishing imposter syndrome by remembering that we're in service to the earth.

IN THE INTRO:

  • Honoring the lineage of plant healers that led to this podcast
  • Intuitive breast care w/ herbs
  • What every herbalist should know

IN THE INTERVIEW:

  • Kneeling to the earth- herbalism isn't about you, please don't be afraid to share your voice
  • How Rosemary's name (which came from her two grandmothers) set her on her path from an early age
  • Plants that carry soft power & the medicine of rosemary (the plant)
  • What Rosemary learned about plant healing from her Armenian grandmother
  • The necessity of recognizing our elders
  • How Rosemary came into teaching herbalism to others during the American herbal renaissance of the 1970s
  • How herbalists seem to come to the same conclusions as one another over and over again, and realizing that it's because we aren't figuring new things out but simply stepping back into the ancient human/plant relationship and the knowledge that comes with that
  • The importance of monitoring, conserving, preserving, and cultivating wild plants and how United Plant Savers has changed the face of American herbalism
  • How plants that grow in abundance tend to be super nutritive plants that our ancestors used in daily life as food and medicine, and how rarer plants tend to have more specific medicine and were used more sparingly in acute cases
  • The ongoing Fire Cider controversy and what happens when folks choose trademarks over traditions
  • Life transitions, looking back on Rosemary's incredible legacy, and looking forward to what's next
