Green tea png with cupFor Health and Healing

Like natural foods, the Herb Plant Kingdom offers us an incredible array of health and healing alternatives. Our ancestors and indigenous neighbours naturally recognized healing herbs growing in the wild, cultivated and used them in teas, tinctures, extracts, poultices and infusions.

In today's society, we label many of these precious gifts "weeds" and spray them with toxic chemicals. Isn't it time we learned how to be back in balance with nature?

Following is a growing list of herbs and their uses. Explore the healing power of herbs and flowers for the higher health of body, mind and spirit. Do plants communicate?

Talking Plants

Do you talk or sing to your plants? If so, you are not alone. Many people share such an affinity, such a love, for their gardens and houseplants they find it therapeutic to talk to their plants.

Ever wonder if your plants try and communicate with you? Do a little research and you will find successful conducted studies demonstrating communication with plants.

An example is the case experiment to Register Potential Emotions From Plants. A variety of household plants were hooked up to EEG monitoring equipment and contained in a sealed laboratory. The experiment involved a lab technician wearing a white lab coat who entered the room with the plants. In his hand he held a burning cigarette. He approached one of the plants, took a leaf and deliberately burned a hole in the leaf. Immediately the plant registered the emotion of fear according to their equipment's registered response.

The next day brought even more dramatic results. The plants were once again hooked up to the equipment. The same man with the same lab coat returned and entered the plant's room. Immediately and before he could do anything all the plants in the room registered the exact same emotion of fear.

Along with animals, plants have feelings and respond to their environment chemically. They can be a good reflection for us along our healing path as well. So the next time you are watering your houseplants and you've got the feeling that maybe a certain plant needs to spend some time in the outside breeze, take heed ... you may just be getting a direct transmission from your green friends.
