David Crow, LAc
Discover 5 of the most fundamental principles of Illuminated Herbalism — a unique, practical, and sacred approach to botanical medicine — and their power to help you overcome and prevent health challenges while deepening your spiritual evolution.
Do you feel a strong connection to nature and its dynamic processes?
Did you know that the energies of nature have a profound correlation to physiological processes within your own body and mind?
And, were you aware that, according to classical Asian medical traditions, sitting in deep contemplation of your physiological processes can actually transform them?
David Crow, one of the world’s foremost herbal medicine teachers and practitioners, has designed a powerful masterclass, in which he’ll shed light on this integral relationship between human beings and nature...
... and guide you through the five fundamental, transformative powers of what he calls Illuminated Herbalism.
He’ll share with you how the medicine inherent in the natural world can help you alter your physiology, enabling you to live a long, healthy life and reach your spiritual aspirations.
Illuminated Herbalism is David’s unique and holistic approach to botanical medicine, distilled from 40 years of intensive study, clinical experience, and meditation.
Herbalism is illuminated when you connect and work with medicinal plants in conjunction with the mindfulness of their energies, elements, and physiological actions... both intellectually and as body-based awareness through contemplative practices.
Herbalism becomes an illuminating power when you work with plants to support your body and mind on your spiritual journey... and use spiritual practices to potentize your herbal medicines.
In this hour-long class, David will walk you through the five foundational principles of Illuminated Herbalism — based on classical Asian medicine traditions and the spiritual lineages from which they come. They are:
- Life force/Qi/prana
- Solar energy and how it manifests as metabolic processes through the heat inside your body
- Lunar energy and how it influences the fluid balance inside your body
- Detoxification
- Rejuvenation
You’ll learn how your life force is related to the functioning of your metabolic heat... how your metabolic heat is related to the functioning of the fluids in your body...
... and how your metabolic heat, bodily fluids, and life force are all working together to support the ongoing processes of physiological detoxification and purification — the catalysts for ongoing rejuvenation.
David will share detailed practical tips on how to improve your wellbeing and elevate your consciousness by applying the medicinal qualities of plants to overcome chronic health issues.
He’ll guide you in experiential processes to give you an embodied sense of how, when you dedicate yourself to contemplating the powers of nature, and pay attention to the processes of creation that are continuously unfolding inside you...
... you will transform in body, mind, and spirit.
During this complimentary online plant medicine masterclass, you’ll:
- Discover specific plant medicines that can improve and prevent health challenges and evolve your consciousness
- Be guided in the practice of contemplating the 4 levels of prana — to learn how to meet the intelligence of nature in your body
- Be introduced to the Illuminated Herbalism path for thriving at higher levels of self-actualization and longevity
- Gain insights on how detoxification and rejuvenation are ongoing processes in the body... and on the importance of supporting those processes with herbal medicines and lifestyle changes
- Experience a technique of listening to your heartbeat... to become aware of how your body is metabolizing solar energy and sunlight to create warmth
And, when you attend this highly educational, practical, and spiritually oriented event, you’ll be among the first to hear about David’s upcoming, first-of-its-kind, year-long herbalism certification program, in which you’ll be immersed in the profound experience of working with plant medicines and meditation to improve your health and wellbeing, increase your self-knowledge, and cultivate inner peace...
... as you develop an understanding of your true nature, the source of your life force, your biological unity with all life, and your deeper cosmological identity.
