In this chat with Guido Masé, one of my herbal heroes, you'll hear the many, many gifts of Yarrow. Then, we get a glimpse into what's on Guido's mind these days.  This conversation is a real treat. I love how Guido weaves together many seemingly different pieces of herbalism, whether it's chemical constituents, heart centered healing, or even mythology and folklore. He also perfectly summarizes why I love being an herbalist.  You'll also receive instant access to a FREE recipe card with Guido's instructions for how to make yarrow powder from the fresh plant.  I love this recipe for many reasons. One is that yarrow powder is a truly wondrous healer for cuts and scrapes. This is one remedy you'll never want to be without! Another is that rather than letting any part of the plant go to waste, Guido also shares how you can process and use the yarrow stalks to cast the I Ching, a traditional Chinese oracular system.

PODCAST 137 WHEN THE MOON MEETS CULTURE A WAY OF LIFE COPYRIGHT2021ISBN 979-8-88525-624-7.mp3Theoretically speaking my mental processes were activated because I wanted  to gain knowledge and comprehension regarding the pertinent question whether we need the moon? Given the specifics and relevance of this topic I will juxtapose the same  against Henry Little's statement “for almost the entirety of man's recorded 50,000- year history the moon has been unattainable provides scope for the reason why I am investigating the same so as ascertain how global citizens think and the processes involved. Now that I have established context at this juncture let me categorically state from the outset that I am not an astronomer but an Author, Cinematographer, Media Arts Specialist, License Cultural Practitioner, Podcaster and Publisher who has a keen interest in protecting and preserving the natural environment in nature and the world. In pursuance of research I unearthed the fact that  Guido Masé had captured and framed in detail the fact that  Life on earth would be quite different without our natural satellite. Most would agree that the daily rising and falling of the moon, along with the monthly waxing and waning cycles, have effects on our oceans and seas. The tides are crucial to life: tidal pools, sheltered and renewed in rhythm with these cycles, catalyzed some of the first stable ecologies and still represent unique niches. On the other hand in all plausibility all things being considered we might owe our very existence to it because its pull of gravity might have set our plate tectonics in motion. To further elucidate this point as I continue navigating this space I have discovered that the stark reality is that without plate tectonics, our planet might be more like Venus, toasty and dead. It raises the level of the world's oceans towards the equator.  in spite of this through the chronicle lens I have also gleaned that that historically speaking in this ambience the usual English proper name for Earth's natural satellite is simply the Moon, with a capital M. The noun moon is derived from Old English mōna, which (like all its Germanic cognates) stems from Proto-Germanic *mēnōn,which in turn comes from Proto-Indo-European *mēnsis "month" (from earlier *mēnōt, genitive *mēneses) which may be related to the verb "measure" (of time). Occasionally, the name Luna /ˈluːnə/ is used in scientific writingand especially in science fiction to distinguish the Earth's moon from others, while in poetry "Luna" has been used to denote personification of the Moon.WORKS CITEDBarnhart, Robert K.

If you are not yet familiar with the work of Guido Masé, hopefully this interview will serve as a worthy introduction to this man's genius and contribution to the world of herbalism. For two hours non-stop, Guido eloquently delivers plant lore and science, useful insights into myriad systems and processes, and priceless life wisdom. The world of herbal medicine was inculcated in Guido by plant and mushroom foraging treks with his father and family during his formative years in the Italian Alps. Eventually settling in Vermont, he was inspired by renowned herbalists such as Rosemary Gladstar and 7Song. Today Guido is the chief herbalist at Urban Moonshine, which specializes in liquid herbal extracts with a focus on digestive bitters, herbal tonics, and everyday health remedies. Through the Urban Moonshine Herb School, he provides online herbal education. Guido is also author of The Wild Medicine Solution, an incredible book filled with folklore, science, recipes, and practical uses of bitter, aromatic, and tonic herbs. Just like the swift runner that Guido is, he covers so much ground in this episode, including his observations with running and homeodynamics; folklore, mythology, and fairy tales related to herbal medicine; integrative health in Africa and Maasai medicine; cultural influences; writing; bitters, tonics, and aromatics; and consciousness. Guido is a deeply engaging speaker with a profound passion for plants and biology in general, and he effortlessly weaves tales of science and myth into a profoundly nourishing and educational conversation. It was my absolute honour to sit in his presence for this worthy discussion, and it brings me great pleasure to be able to offer it to you.

Their primary strength is helping to improve quality of life, lessen the chance of infection, and protect vital organs when taken alongside conventional treatment. But questions often arise: what are the potential interactions with modern treatment? What herbs have the best track record, and at what dose? What effects can herbs have in hormone-sensitive cancers? We will work through these questions and review current research to help highlight safe and effective use, and reinforce the idea that herbal medicine isn’t just helpful – it is an essential component of the cancer patient’s support plan.

Guido Masé is a runner, father, author of the book Wild Medicine Solution: Healing with Aromatic, Bitter, and Tonic Plants, instructor at the Vermont Center for Integrative Herbalism, and chief Herbalist at Urban Moonshine. In this episode Guido talks with Eric about how the human species co-evolved with the plant chemistry that surrounded us, the importance of epigenetics in human health, and the link between dietary diversity and resilience, among other things.

Guido shares from his rich knowledge about history and science of 'the forgotten flavor' bitter, including significance to modern digestive health and eating concerns with a focus on sugar and carbohydrate cravings! We talk here about: -The history of 'Bitter' and historical applications -How an herbalist thinks about the use of bitters in modern times -The concept of Bitter as a 'forgotten flavor' (and why it matters) -How bitters are tasted or sensed (hint: it's not just on the tongue) -Impacts of bitter compounds on digestive physiology -How exposure to bitter compounds can modulate the experience of craving and appetite -Practical ideas for integrating bitter compounds to improve digestive and immune health -Additional resources for reading & learning Additional Links & Resources: Guido's Books: The Wild Medicine Solution: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-wild-medicine-solution-guido-mase/1114036215 DIY Bitters: https://books.google.com/books/about/DIY_Bitters.html?id=ZgyQDAAAQBAJ Urban Moonshine: https://www.urbanmoonshine.com/ Blessed Bitters: http://www.herbcraft.org/bitters.pdf Bitters: Time for a New Paradigm (J.

Juniper, these ground-hugging shrubs are common denizens of the temperate and arctic regions of the northern hemispheres, and are well-respected as practical, helpful trees in the Dolomites. Locals harvest the limbs and berries from high mountain crags, bringing them back to the villages and stables for protection, wealth and prosperity. Sit with Guido Masé as we explore the folklore of this aromatic botanical.

All the members of the genus Artemisia, being moon-related, seem to have an affinity for mind-alteration and fortune-telling, but also banishing, cleansing, and forgetfulness. Sit with Guido Masé for a bit of Mugwort story time!

This is a very sacred and important tree in the land of the Ladins, the native inhabitants of the Dolomite region who have been living there, with an intact tradition, since before Roman times. In valleys such as the Val Gardena they still craft beautiful, intricate sculptures from linden wood. But the tree, which we know as a calming, soothing nervine that makes perhaps one of the most delicious teas imaginable, gets the most respect for being a tree of good counsel and calm judgement – as well as having a reputation for growing quite easily from root and branch cuttings. Prolific and soothing, a wealth of craft and magic – this is a tree we all should get to know well.

My today's guest ​is Guido Masé.  ​Guido is a clinical herbalist who lives in Burlington, Vermont.  He specializes in holistic Western herbalism drawing upon many influences.
