Our roots: our shamanic ability to communicate with the plant world - are lost. Rediscover them through this poetic, philosophical & ecologically aware account. Its author shows how humankind has lost touch with its own innate resonance with the natural world, causing itself to lose confidence in itself as a species, and how the increasingly mechanistic, scientific approach denatures, dehumanises, and profoundly disconnects us from our source. The spirit of plants and herbs can reconnect us if we just take time to bridge ourselves into their consciousness.
