In some Native languages, the term for plants translates to “those who takes care of us” - From the book Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer

Herbalism IS community

We hold and support each other .. as the plants do

    I focus on root cause healing & self empowered healing. Meaning I focus on nourishment on all levels of ones being while also educating and empowering the individual to be able to forever live a healthier life and have the tools to support themselves! No Band-Aids! Getting to the root cause involves looking at the whole person. Ones diet, lifestyle, constitution, and much more! No elements of a person are separate, whether that be environmental influence, thinking patterns, childhood influence, etc.

    My practice as a Ceremonial Tatuist is centered in providing “Pray & Poke Ceremonies”. These are designed to be healing & empowering by nature. Held in a safe, intimate & relaxing space, folx to come to me to be truly heard, seen & honored through the ancient ritualistic practice of Hand Poked Tatuz. No electric machines are used… just heart & hand power to methodically and ceremonially mark the body temple with what I called “Talizman Tatuz”.

With the rise of Herbalism, comes the responsibility of finding ethical herbal information. Here I provide resources you can trust.

WE MUST ALWAYS PAY TRIBUTE TO THE ELDERS AND THE PEOPLE BEFORE US WHO HAVE PASSED DOWN THIS INCREDIBLE KNOWLEDGE OF HERBALISM. I GIVE GREAT THANKS TO MY HERBAL TEACHER, JOANN SANCHEZ. WHO PROVIDED ME THE SPARK OF CURIOSITY WITHIN THE PLANT QUEENDOM.
