EP 081: Quantum Herbalism And The Power of Plants
Manage episode 424528268 series 3433890
“Plants heal themselves; they are their own doctors,” explains Amber Hargroder, a quantum herbalist and listener favorite. She returns to the Quantum Biology Collective podcast to discuss how plants offer the same healing to us by behaving in the body as they do in response to environmental stress.
In our modern world, including contemporary science and medicine, we speak in "logos", or logic and rational proof, whereas herbalists speak in “phasis” (faw-sis), the language of knowledge through experience, nature, metaphor, and dreams. They let nature speak for itself from its experience.
Amber talks to host Meredith Oke about how barriers in language, culture, and socio-economic class have historically prevented people from embracing the healing properties of the natural world. She exposes the flaws in scientific studies that deem plants ineffectual and discusses how advances in technology are pushing us to rediscover our humanity and our relationship with the earth.
Tune in for another engaging conversation with Amber as she explains how lies are embedded in our language and reveals the true, surprising origins of the Santa Claus tale.
Quotes
- “Whatever environment that a plant is growing in, if it’s an environment that has a certain type of stress, the plant creates its own medicine to deal with that stress, and then we use that plant to also heal a similar stress.” (4:28 | Amber Hargroder)
- “When you look at a traditional allopathic doctor today, more and more—there are outliers of course—but more and more you’re looking at patients as being a machine. They’re all widgets; they’re all the same. ‘I will give you this pill because this is the result that we get in the study and it’s uniform,’ whereas an herbalist is healing as an individual with an individual.” (10:49 | Amber Hargroder)
- “Phasis is observation versus an argument. It’s not linear. Nature is not linear. Spirituality is not linear. Healing is not linear.” (15:21 | Amber Hargroder)
- “I think this is perhaps why people are starting to get more interested in herbalism and healing with sunlight and water and all these things, is because we’re trying to redefine what it means to be human. And a big part of that is phasis— it is the dream world, it is the visionary state, it is your intuition, which a computer doesn’t have.” (25:51 | Amber Hargroder)
- “We have to get back into the body, and I think plants help you do that. Plants when you sit with them and you’re aware while you’re drinking them they help you, not only understand the plant and the embodiment of the plant, the essence of it, but the essence of yourself.” (1:09:37 | Amber Hargroder)
