    172. Street Medics and Free Clinics: 7song on Herbal Education

    7Song is an American clinical herbalist, teacher, botanist and naturalist with over 40 years of experience in herbal medicine in USA. He is the founder and director of the Northeast School of Botanical Medicine and the Director of Holistic Medicine at the Ithaca Free Clinic. His work focuses on practical, experience-based herbalism, integrating clinical care, plant identification, and medicine making to support accessible community healthcare.  Known for his grounded and practical approach, 7Song has spent decades helping people access herbal medicine in real-world settings. In this episode, 7song shares the beginnings of his herbal journey being involved in social justice and activism, and wanting to make change.  7song learnt with Christopher Hobbs, Micheal Moore and other incredible minds, and went on to make his own school. 7song shares about what is often missing in the herbal education space in USA- mentorship and one on one apprenticeships.  Through his school, this is something that he offers.There are two schools that offer herbal degrees, but as 7song shares, it can be difficult to make a decent income from being just a practitioner, and the better income opportunities are to be found in education. There is a lot more covered in this interview, you will jst have to listen to hear about it!There are some big changes coming with 7song preparing to close down his school, and change focus. One of his amazing evolving current offerings is the Herbal Database which is an incredible free resource well worth checking out- see links in the shownotes below. 7song is a very generous teacher who has given a phenomenal amount of free resources online and runs many free classes.

  2. 174. Wildcrafting As Rebellion: Sacred Herbalism

    APR 1

    174. Wildcrafting As Rebellion: Sacred Herbalism

    Wildcrafting is simply the ancient practice of moving through landscape and gathering the gifts of herbs, fruits, nuts and other plant and fungal material that is useful to human thriving. How does it sit inside the capitalist and individualist structures of our modern legal & cultural systems? In this three-way conversation between Stephanie Hazel, Taj Scicluna and Daisy Kaye Devine, we uncover the ways that wildcrafting is a vital rebellion against: - capitalist ideas of private property - materialist stories that say that plants and land can be owned! - the loss of time in the pursuit of efficiency - the hacking of our dopamine pathways by devices and social media - the extractive economy of plant medicine Wildcrafting in your local area supports connection with land, belonging to community, passes knowledge on to children and is most often a sustainable practice. Enjoy this multi-faceted conversation! **BUY ME A CUPPA** If you liked the episode and want more, a cuppa fuels my work and time, which is given for free.

    169. Lutruwita Herb Farm Tour: Taj Scicluna on Herb Farming

    This episode is a love letter to medicinal resilience. After attending the Elder Tree Herb Farm Tour in Lutruwita, I found myself reignited — not just in my devotion to herbalism, but in my commitment to bioregional practice, to growing medicine where we stand. We have carefully selected audio from the tour, from some of the original Elders Herb Farming in Australia, as well as farmers of the younger generation who are holding the torch, responding with our own thoughts and insights. In this conversation, we explore what happens when we look beyond the brown bottle and begin asking deeper questions about traceability, ethics, soil, community, and the quality of care that flows from seed to patient. Through stories from Gould’s, Hop Valley, and Marlene Herbs, we unpack why medicinal security matters just as much as food security, why compost and tools and local economies are all part of herbal medicine, and how supporting local growers strengthens not only our dispensaries but our ecosystems. Herbalism, in this episode, is not reduced to symptom management — it becomes a practice of reciprocity, regeneration, and reverence for the living systems that make healing possible Gould's Apothecary & Herb Farm https://www.gouldsnaturalmedicine.com.au/ https://www.gouldsnaturalmedicine.com.au/farm Hop Valley Herb Farm https://www.hopvalleyherbs.com.au/ Marleen Herbs http://www.tincturesandgemmos.com/ **BUY ME A CUPPA** If you liked the episode and want more, a cuppa fuels my work and time, which is given for free.

    168. Alchemy in the Temple of Mercury: Benjamin Turale on Herbal Education- Episode Re-release

    This is a re-release of an interview with Benjamin Turale from Temple of Mercury.  Benjamin lives on Wudawurung land in Victoria.  Benjamin is an award winning alchemist who lives live and breathes the Hermetic current. He is Director of Education in the  ⁠International Alchemy Guild ⁠ and is very active in the alchemy community internationally, and works to help preserve and pass on the Albertian Alchemical lineage. In this interview, Benjamin and I explore intricate world of alchemy and its historical significance. Benjamin shares the definitions of key terms like alchemy and spagyrics, and hermeticism.  Benjamin shares his personal journey into the field, and the rich lineage of alchemical practices. The discussion delves into the origins of alchemy in ancient Egypt, its evolution through various cultures, and the impact of the Royal College of Physicians on the transition to modern chemistry. The episode culminates in an exploration of the Philosopher's Stone, its symbolic meanings, and its relevance in both historical and contemporary contexts. We explore Alchemy's historical roots, the significance of spagyrics, and the transformative processes involved in creating spagyrical medicine. We discuss the importance of fire in alchemical practices, the relationship between alchemy and hermeticism, and Benjamin shares about the potent teachings offered at the Temple of Mercury. Benjamin has a highly intelligent and spiritualy deep connection to the path of alchemy and I know you are going to really love this one.

Pat highlights the barriers people face in embracing herbalism, particularly fear and lack of knowledge, and offers practical advice on incorporating herbs into daily life. Pat shares many practical home remedies you can take with you, using a few simple ingredients you will have in your pantry and kitchen- I'm looking at you potatoes and onions!
