What if the power to heal was within you... and all around you in the natural world?
Since the dawn of humanity, people in every corner of the planet have used what was immediately accessible to heal themselves — botanical treatments, healing tinctures and medicinal remedies from the herbs, flowers and other flora surrounding them.
To be sure, the advances of modern medicine are amazing, even miraculous. Our ability to treat ailments and cure diseases is an inspiring testament to what we’re capable of.
However, as we’ve pursued the new frontier of science and discovery, we’ve lost touch with the healing power of our environment, and with our deep biological and spiritual connection to nature and plants.
That’s why we’re excited about The Plant Medicine Summit — a global gathering of leading ecological experts, health practitioners and inspiring educators who will be sharing a unique synthesis of medicine, ecology and spirituality that will transform your relationship with the natural world.
Whether you’re new to herbal remedies, essential oils and natural medicine or a professional or clinician working with herbs, plants, energy or the environment, you’ll discover new practices and insights for making medicinal herbs, flowers, mushrooms, aromatic ceremonial plants and essential oils your allies in healing and transformation.
The visionary speakers in this series will bring to light the curative and evolutionary powers of specific medicinal plants — many of which you can grow in your own garden or neighborhood!

Take a moment to consider our own Western story of creation... humans were nourished and healed by a completely sustainable oasis. This garden met all of our needs — physical, emotional and spiritual. It’s a beautiful and serene vision that’s rooted in our actual history (and myth), where humans evolved in an organic partnership with nature. Living in right relationship with nature was and is imperative not only for our survival, but our ability to THRIVE.
Today, we have an opportunity to return to the wisdom of the plant kingdom and deeply integrate it into every aspect of our lives.
Plants are wise and sacred allies. All they require is our curiosity and respect for them to reveal their secrets.
In exchange, they heal and restore our bodies, balance our emotions, revitalize our spirits and awaken our consciousness to new realities.
They help remove toxins and address addictions, anxiety and depression — and reconnect us with our life force and purpose on the planet.
In this enlightening series, you’ll discover that each plant, herb and flower provides a unique pathway into a more profound relationship with your body, mind and soul — and in so doing, each opens up opportunities for greater wellbeing, clarity and spiritual advancement.
Dr. Vasant Lad will share how medicinal plants work according to Ayurvedic knowledge and wisdom.
Yun Xiang Tseng (Master Chen) will provide illuminating insights on Taoist philosophy and theory for internal alchemy as well as herbs used to promote the quality of meditation.
Dr. Jill Stansbury will identify the three essential herbs for women's health.
David Frawley (aka Vamadeva Shastri) will bring to light the most important tonics and rejuvenating herbs in Ayurvedic medicine, and how they impact immunity, longevity, brain function, perception and awareness.
Karta Purkh Singh Khalsa (KP Khalsa) will show you how to keep your brain and memory healthy as you age.
Rosita Arvigo will reveal the secrets of “rainforest remedies,” including the most beneficial vines, roots and barks.

An accomplished Emberá healer and mother of 10 from the jungle of Panama, Irma Caisamo learned about healing from her mother and grandparents. They taught her to talk to the Creator and plants — and listen to them! In this wonderful talk, she shares many details about what it means to be Emberá and about her healing work. She also shares an important message for the world, “We’re all in this together, without distinction of race, and we need to love ourselves and all of nature. Indigenous people are the ones who will save the rest of the world by teaching people how to live in harmony with nature.”
This 35-minute video was first broadcast as part of The Shift Network’s Global Indigenous Wisdom Summit, and is excerpted from a live interview with Irma at The Indigenous Summit of the Americas (Cumbre de Abya Yala) in Panama City, Panama, in April 2015.

David Crow is a true gift. Pure inspiration! It was food for the soul, something that I obviously needed right at this time. I feel so much more awakened to the interdependence of all things through experience.

I feel like a kid in a candy shop wanting to try everything! We’ve been given tools to understand and explore medicinal plants in a safe way, but also with the understanding that we pay attention to how each plant affects us individually and in each and every situation.

The information we’ve received is so fundamentally important that I think it should be given to every human being on the planet. It should be taught to our children in schools.
