The Plant Medicine School has come into being as the result of a happy merger, collaboration, marriage between Veriditas Hibernica and Grá Nádur.
This School has been many years in the making...
At the Plant Medicine School, we have years of experience in teaching at all levels from the academic to hands-on creative everyday applications. We offer in-depth courses and share this part of our cultural heritage as a commons. We also love building networks with other like-minded people, with the elders of the herbal community and amongst those who choose to study here.
Each person brings their own experience and learning intelligence to the process, with support and mentoring. We blend together practical skills, scientific knowledge, traditional lore, energetics and a passion for working with our local allies reclaiming old traditions with cutting-edge research to make a vibrant alchemy of 21st-century plant medicine for the healing of people, animals, plants and the land.
Plants are amazing beings. We have co-evolved with the plants, they are deeply interwoven into our psyche (we even have plants genes in our DNA) and we depend on them for healthy living
We are passionate about learning being empowering for people, learning being fun. Sustainability, making our relationship with nature one that is regenerative and healing for ourselves and for our planet and environment.
We are passionate about making learning fun since this makes it easier and more likely to stick. Storytelling is one method that we find works well.
We are so incredibly grateful for all the wonderful people who come to study with us, each one brings their own particular way of seeing to this path.
The courses are not about learning by rote but use storytelling, reiterative methods and experiential exercises to allow the evolution of knowledge.
