#14 Using Plants as Alchemy for Healing Ourselves & the Planet with Dan De Lion

Anya Kaats

Mar 11, 2019

Dan is a forager, herbalist, teacher and van dweller. In this conversation we talk about plants from nearly every angle imaginable. We discuss the parallels between nature, ourselves and the cosmos, the importance of community, nature's role in grief work, herbalism as a form of medicine, the fate of our species and how we can harness progress and evolution in a positive way to create a better future for ourselves and the planet.

Dan's Book Recommendation: Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer

Song featured: "No River" by Esmé Patterson
