Rooted Healing
The Rooted Healing podcast seeks to deepen our kinship with the living landscapes around us and within us. This is a space where stories heal with words that weave us closer to our wild and inter-relational nature, bringing us closer to the expansive minds, topics and ideas that help us heal, re-imagine and co-create the world we love to be alive in. We explore and celebrate psychedelic and animistic culture, cross-cultural wisdom exchange, belonging, ceremony, community and nature-led healing. We also run psilocybin retreats, ancestral gatherings, and online courses in deep ecology. Visit rootedhealing.org to learn more.
