New Releases by Susun S. Weed

It''s all there: Seven Medicines to help you be abundantly well, make sense of medicine, and get the health care you need and deserve. Chapter Six, on Pharmaceutical Medicine, includes a dozen two-page spreads comparing the effects of common modern drugs to herbal remedies. It is illustrated with magical drawings, meticulously indexed, assiduously researched, and rich with recipes, lore, and startling scientific support for the Complementary Integrated Medicine Revolution.

Le Trèfle de vie est le résultat de 30 ans de pratique et d''enseignement à l''écoute des plantes, dans la plus belle tradition des sages femmes, des herboristes et des sorcières. Cet héritage des femmes constitue une approche en soi - au côté de la médecine scientifique et holistique - dont Susun est une brillante porte-parole. Le trèfle de vie fait suite à Mamamélis pour rendre aux femmes leur pouvoir et leur autonomie dans la santé. [Payot.ch]

Healing Wise sets forth the foundations of the Wise Woman Tradition, contrasting them with the Heroic and Scientific views of healing. "Weeds draw us into ancient wisdom in a clear and refreshing way," says herbalist Rosemary Gladstar. I see the Wise Woman. She carries a blanket of compassion. She wears a robe of wisdom. From her shoulders, a mantle of power flows. She ties the threads of our lives together. I see the Wise Woman. And she sees me. Seven herbs -- burdock, chickweed, dandelion, nettle, oatstraw, seaweed, and violet -- are explored in depth. Each monograph includes the "voice" of the herb, a weed walk to encounter the herb in its environment, detailed instructions for harvesting and preparation, properties and uses for every part of the herb, pertinent facts, fun folklore, and recipes for gourmet foodstuffs, wines, beers, cosmetics, and more.
