Book Review: The Art and Practice of Spiritual Herbalism by Karen M. Rose

Be prepared for an inviting, sumptuous journey through this collection of knowledge, wisdom and teaching, when you read Spiritual Herbalism by Karen M. Rose. It is rare to have such a detailed and in depth look at spiritual herbalism, especially when it includes African, Caribbean and Latin American traditions.

Master herbalist, Karen M. Rose, trained in Eastern and Western Herbal medicine, and is the owner of the Brooklyn based Sacred Vibes Apothecary. Her book is full of recipes, traditions, which have a global appeal and hugs the human spirit like a warm blanket.

A healthy relationship with our families, communities, environment, Earth, and Spirit is necessary to heal.

This lyrical exploration of plant traditions is blooming with colour and creativity. Each section is detailed and concise. A welcome invite to traditions which reconnect with a new generation. Rose guides the reader through transformational connections, to the restoration of balance in the human body via the use of specific plants which guide sexual health, skin health and immune health.

Wisdom finds a home in out hearts, not our heads.

Karen M. Rose

This book is the legacy of a knowledge keeper passing on what she learned from her own grandmother, plus other world view plant teachings. A true spiritual botanical feast.
