When I was 6 years old my family moved into a new house and I found an abandoned apothecary at the edge of the property. It felt like I had built it myself and forgotten where I'd left it.  

​

It took me decades and a career in medical research to learn that medicine is not a thing in a bottle but our purest connection to the Earth and to ourselves.

​

Medicine doesn't heal.

​

The body heals itself if we learn what it needs, how to support it, and what prevents us from doing so.

​

Stepping back and examining our relationship to culture, food habits, to nature, breath, economy, society, and currently accepted norms is a vital first step to reclaiming our health and sovereignty as individuals and as a species.
