My initiation into plant medicine started in the Amazon Jungle in 2005.
I now live in Karangahake Gorge.
Im reminded of how rich the ancient jungle was in much and in comparison how deficient my local forest is. Reason being that it has taken years for the gorge to, only now in the last 15 years, start to regenerate itself after the mining devestation. ( the miners burnt off the land to build settlements and set up their operation )
We have a canopy of ponga and bracken ferns mainly. The role of these plants is to prepare the ground by providing primary nutrients and shelter for the actual forest to start to establish itself. Pollution is still evident, birdlife is not at its optimum.
The soil will require countless years worth of leaf material to resaturate the earth with essential coverage to rebuild the biology and mineral component required to sustain reforestation.
This will not happen in my lifetime.
At a time where we should be coveting and embracing our Mother Earth. She who provides us life. We just keep plundering blindly forward.
People ask " What can I do ? " " It feels so much bigger than myself " Im only one person ". The harsh reality is that you can and do have an impact my lovelies. Consumerism is driving the need for greed.
Start buying quality over quantity. Support artisans again. Those who truly know their craft. The bakers, chefs, growers, butchers, crafters etc Stop buying into social media and find community again.
Purchase dry goods from sustainable shops where you can reuse jars and containers, find a good local butcher and a good local organic farmer. Stop fuelling the house crisis.
If you cant find it ... create it. If you dont know how then ask.
Its not an excuse to be too busy anymore.
As a body worker we are seeing too many people losing their mind and vitality to survival fuelled by time restraints. This needs to stop now.
The flip side of this behaviour is driving those that are surviving less to resort to dire consequences just to live. Please think people.
