Mother Nature’s healing system operates by life’s laws, contrasting manmade science. True healers align with her wisdom, using natural plant medicines and principles of detoxification, vital force, and intuitive faculties like instinct, imagination, and dreamtime awareness. These ancient tools of shamanic healers and renaissance Wisdom of Nature practitioners form a comprehensive, holistic system.
This class explores three primal laws of natural healing:
- Law of Similars & Contraries: Like treats like; balance opposites (e.g., hot to cold).
- Law of Cure Direction: Healing flows from vital to less vital, inside to outside, top to bottom.
- Law of Healing Crisis: Reliving trauma to release it.
Four principles guide this system:
- Wisdom of Nature: “As above, so below” reveals harmony between humans and their environment, tracing roots to archetypes and holistic traditions like astrology and Chinese organ systems.
- Vital Force: Nature is alive, and its energy is perceived through subtle signs, integrating shamanic, Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Western diagnostic approaches.
- Detoxification: Toxins exit via elimination channels (skin, lungs, kidneys, colon), following shamanic purification practices like limpias and sweat lodges.
- Commitment: Healing requires belief and dedication from both healer and patient, addressing spiritual vision, discipline, and even addiction with natural remedies like yerba santa and rabbit tobacco.
When we have internalized these basic lessons, we may be able to receive the “inner medical license,” assuring us that we are a “true physician” practicing according to the Laws and Wisdom of Nature.
