How did onions, garlic, ginger, horseradish, cayenne, apple cider vinegar and sometimes honey come to be at the forefront of a stand for freedom? It's quite a story. And it is unfolding right now. If you're not familiar, here's the scoop. I have created this 'magic chant' to help change the energy towards a more positive outcome for Fire Cider (i.e. to help free it from trade mark restrictions). Would you please join us in chanting it either 3 or 9 times once a day for the next few days? It only takes about... read more.

New article up on New York Spirit! "Herbal medicine is truly the people’s medicine and can be found right in our kitchens. The methods I use and teach are focused on preparing the plants in ways that help us to receive their healing gifts (vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, and other constituents) as fully as possible and to do this in a low-tech way that anyone can do well. Also, recognizing that most of us feel over-committed, overloaded and tired, I know we need simple, easy ways to take care of ours... read more.

I love the Earth Holidays. They invite the people of Earth to come together and celebrate! The spring and fall equinoxes and the winter and summer solstices are holidays (holy days) that are universally relevant to all the peoples of Earth. They are based in what is actually happening in Nature, and are not limited to any religion or nationality, and so can be embraced by all. Summer Solstice is exact on Sunday, June 21, 2015 in the northern hemisphere (when it is winter solstice in the southern hemisphere;... read more.

What am I connected to? How do I be true to myself? (In a world that publicly values image over truth) How do I contribute to the well being of the world?

Our national holiday, just passed, had to be fought for until it was finally won. The same is true for freedom, justice, and dignity for all beings. The fight for MLK Jr.’s national holiday was not born of hate; its fuel was love and respect and this needs to be our fuel as well because unlike hate, which depletes our energy and burns it out, love is an eternally renewable resource. Let’s all work together, with joy and the deepest respect for life to continue to create a world of justice and di... read more.
