#PlantMedicines
#PlantMedicines are opening new doors for mental wellness.

Many stay with ineffective treatments because they think they have no choice. Natural tools may offer fewer side effects and deeper long-term healing.

There are more options than you've been told.

So tired of insta and fb for art. The same 25 people see my posts .. what is an artist to do? Trying here to see if I can reach new people. Here’s one - it’s called love is not a noun. Inspired by a plant medicine journey I did a while ago .. #art #artist #surreal #plantmedicines #love

Emotional patterns often form from past experiences and shape how we relate to ourselves and others.

#Plantmedicines can support gentle awareness, helping you notice these patterns and reconnect with what’s underneath. With care and integration, new ways of being can begin to take root.

Meanwhile, back in my 99 degree Fahrenheit garden, it’s time to make medicine. Solarize and steep your jars of tea. Pictured here: butterfly pea tea and green tea. Both have antioxidant value. Later refrigerate and sip. Easy medicine. #plantmedicines #suntea #makemedicine #herbal #herbaltea #tea

Psychedelic experiences can open the emotional floodgates. But unless we’ve developed the inner structure to hold what surfaces, we risk being overwhelmed. Integration requires patience, embodiment, and deep inner work.
