Integrating Natural, Ancient, and Conventional Medicine

Medicinal plants can be used alone, with mainstream medicine allopathic practices, or with complementary modalities such as Qigong, meditation, sound healing, visualization, journaling, and somatic movement.

The Illuminated Herbalism Summit offers you a unique opportunity to explore different methodologies and best practices gleaned from Indigenous and traditional cultures across the globe.

During this plant medicine summit, you’ll learn about the ceremonial use of herbs, including incense, baths, ritual foods, amulets, teas, and even entheogens — psychoactive substances that produce variations in cognition, consciousness, or behavior in ways that further spiritual development.

Plant allies are utilized by various religions to help grow our spirits, heal our souls, make congregations holy, improve our luck, and protect us from malign influences.

Often dismissed as superstition, the almost universal use of these spiritual medicines strongly suggests they offer real and powerful benefits…

The empirical evidence is quite compelling, given the exciting and expansive yet unsettling times we’re living in today.

As you gain deeper knowledge of the vast, ancient wisdom of our botanical allies, you’ll be able to leverage your expanded relationship with medicinal plants into physical healing and spiritual expansion.
