Susun Weed interviews herbalist, author and teacher Matthew Wood
 

 

30 minute on-demand radio intervew. Listen now or download mp3.

Matthew Wood has been a practicing herbalist since 1982. In a period when many authors and lecturers are merely "arm chair herbalists" who offer theories and opinions based on book learning, and others have turned to the exotic traditions of India or China, he has been an active practitioner of traditional
Western herbalism. He has helped tens of thousands of clients over the years, with many difficult health problems.

While Matthew believes in the virtue of many other healing modalities, he has always been inspired to learn, preserve, and practice the tradition of herbal medicine descending to us from our European, Anglo-American, and Native American heritage. He is a member of the American Herbalists Guild (registered herbalist) and has earned his Masters of Science degree from the Scottish School of Herbal Medicine (accredited by the University of Wales).

In 1992 Matthew moved to a little farm in Minnetrista, thirty-five minutes west of downtown Minneapolis. The seventeen acres consisted of fields, woods, swamps, prairies, and herb gardens. He called it "Sunnyfield Herb Farm" after the road out front. In 2003 a careless 'guest' burned down the guest house and Matthew thought it prudent to move. In 2006 he removed to a beautiful oak woods about ten miles away, in Maple Plain. In 2010 he moved to land in Wisconsin. He still calls his business "Sunnyfield Herb Farm." A friend continues to live on the old farm.

Matthew has lectured in all parts of the United States, from Georgia to Maine, New York to California, and Santa Fe to Sperryville, Virginia. He has also taught in Canada, Scotland, England, France, and Australia. He is known throughout the world as an excellent teacher of herbal medicine.

He is also the author of six acclaimed books on herbal medicine, published by North Atlantic Books, in Berkeley, CA:
Seven Herbs, Plants as Teachers (1987)
Vitalism, The History of Herbalism, Homeopathy, and Flower Essences, originally entitled The Magical Staff (1993)
The Book of Herbal Wisdom (1998)
The Practice of Traditional Western Herbalism (2004)
The Earthwise Herbal, A Complete Guide to Old World Medicinal Plants (2008)
The Earthwise Herbal, A Complete Guide to New World Medicinal Plants (2009)

Weekly words of Wisdom from Susun and Friends!

Greetings from Susun – January 24th, 2012

Dear friends of the green,

Let’s finish up the first month of the New Year, and our focused work with the mint family, by making an herbal smoking mix. Any dried mint-family plants you have on hand can be used make a great healing smoke, especially if mixed with some mullein, and perhaps a few other herbs. Smoking can be good for the health of your lungs and your being.

Priestess/Priest of Brighde
One Year Training

with Marion van Eupen

BRIGHDE
GODDESS AND SAINT

www.goddesstemple.co.uk

Brighde is the ancient Goddess of Brigit’s Isles, where She is Bridie, Bride, Brid, Bree, Brue, Brigit, Brigid and Bridget, Lady of Fire, of the Sun and Moon, of the Springs and Wells, of the Four Directions, the Divine Midwife of the Soul, Bride of the Isles, Bride of the Fair Palms, Mary of the Gael. As Goddess of the land She gives Her name to the ancient land of Brigantia and to our tutelary (guardian) Goddess Britannia.

Once Bride was well known in these lands as the Great Goddess, ruling the land and all the seasons. She is the Wheel, Her energy is tangible through the whole year. In every season, in every element, in every phase in our lives She inspires and transforms us.

In Glastonbury we recognise Brighde in the landscape as Her Sacred Swan stretching Her long neck along Wearyall Hill and spreading Her wings over the Glastonbury town hills. She flows in the waters of the sacred wells and the river Brue, which is called after Her. But foremost She is revered on Brides Mound which is part of The Beckery.

Susun Weed interviews healer and mentor, Carolyn Honey Friedman

30 minute on-demand radio intervew. Listen now or download mp3.

Born Carolyn Honey Schneider, and almost always called Honey, Honey is the mother of two fantastic beings, grandmother of a beautiful boy, taught elementary school in the USA and English as a second language in Spain and Morocco, worked as an actress in musical comedy in NYC, taught American history abroad by singing folk songs to foreign students, speak fluent Spanish and French, some Arabic, Italian, Dutch and Yiddish, love to sing, dance, play piano, guitar, ukulele and recorder, travel, experience people, cultures, foods, languages and ways of being.

Honey was a Rockland County, NY Chiropractor from 1984 to 2004. During that time, she was the president of the New York State Chiropractic Association, Rockland District, and active both on the board of directors and as President of The Rockland Business Women’s Network. She served as Vice President to Blue Horizons, which is a holistic healers network, and rode as a volunteer Emergency Medical Technician for The Spring Hill Ambulance Corps.

Doctors/Healers often use only a conglomeration of techniques to deal with the outer manifestations of illness; that is, with effects on the body, rather than causes. Honey believes the realm of cause is also in the invisible aspect of a person.

A whole person consists of both their inner world and their outer physical being, and also their connection to something even larger than themselves. Some might call this spirit, soul, destiny, “patterning intelligence”, the “all that is”, the “Oneness” or “life’s longing for itself”. When we work only on the body and do not address the inner thoughts, emotions and the heart of the person, we are not dealing with the whole person - we are not practicing holistic health care.

This whole healing is a lifestyle... a process that emphasizes health and harmony in body, mind and spirit. It fosters an awareness of our responsibility for our own well being. As a holistic practitioner, my goal is to help you to become independent of the need for frequent care, to help you develop your own personal healing tools, and to restore harmony through your own efforts.

It's learning how and having the desire to carry out the plan. To my thinking, it requires awareness, acceptance, understanding and a willingness to change - and most importantly, the belief that all of this is possible.

Although longer a New York chiropractor, Honey continues to use touch to facilitate healing. The sense of touch is the earliest to develop in the human embryo. The skin develops from the same tissue as does the nervous system, and remains in intimate association with it through life. In addition to being the largest organ of the body, the various elements comprising the skin have an extremely large representation in the brain. Stimulation of the skin is necessary for human survival, both physically and behaviorally. We require tactile experience in order to develop and to remain healthy human beings.

Using the "laying on of hands", Reiki and the work of Bryon Katie, Honey's focus is on personal evolution, movement towards self-mastery, and spiritual principles as the foundation of healership.
