This week on Herbal Radio we are joined by Lauren Morgan, an herbalist, author, and fellow podcaster who uses a unique approach to learn from plants: dreaming. Join Tommy and Lauren as they explore:

• Our primal connection to plants
• Lauren's "wild gardening" approach
• Combining a spiritual and scientific approach to herbalism
• Dreaming as a doorway to connection, expansion, and inspiration
• Learning from plants through intentional dreaming
• Creating a long term, sustainable relationship with your dreams

As always, we thank you for joining us on another botanical adventure and are so honored to have you tag along with us on this ride. Remember, we want to hear from you! Your questions, ideas, and who you want to hear from are an invaluable piece to our podcast. Email us at podcast@mountainroseherbs.com to let us know what solutions we should uncover next within the vast world of herbalism.

🌿 Strengthening the bonds between people and plants for a healthier world. 🌿

This week on Tea Talks with Jiling, we are joined by Keya Kai Guimarães. Keya is a community herbalist, lei-maker, and crafter of aromatic plant medicines, born beneath the fragrant Ponderosa pines of Colorado and shaped by the rain-kissed beauty of Kauaʻi. Honoring her Irish, Chinese, and Polynesian ancestry, Keya walks a path of listening to the land— approaching the botanical realm as both pilgrim and apprentice. For the past ten years, her herbal focus has been on women's health and hormonal transitions— from menarche to menopause— using plant-based remedies, seasonal wellness coaching, and lei-making as a living healing art.

Listen in as Keya and Jiling discuss:

• Apprenticing with the plants
• Hawaiian lei and hula traditions
• How lei-making relates to herbal medicine
• Botanomancy and how to play with Keya's newest project, the "Lāʻau: Hawaiian Flora" card game and book of monographs
