Summary:
"Restoring the use of wild plants in daily life for vibrant physical, mental,and spiritual health"--
As people moved into cities and suburbs and embraced modern medicine and industrialized food, they lost their connection to nature, in particular to the plants with which humanity coevolved. Masé explores the three classes of plants necessary for the healthy functioning of our bodies and minds: aromatics, bitters, and tonics. He shows how healing "wild plant deficiency syndrome" -- adding wild plants back into our diets -- is vital not only to our health but also to our spiritual development.
