Herbal
Medicine and EarthSpirit
Teachings

I
am a writer, green witch, an herbalist, a wisewoman... one who loves the
earth and gives voice to the
healing wild food and medicine plants which surround us and a teacher of WiseWoman Healing
Ways of Herbal Medicine and EarthSpirit teachings.
Common plants are our teachers. Weeds and
wild flowers show us the joyful abundance and generosity of (our true) nature. They freely
share their gifts of
food, medicine, beauty, and
wholeness.
It is my pleasure to help women and men
remember our ancient and global heritage of Wisewoman Healing Ways; ways of compassionate
intuition, nurturing ourselves and our unique rhythms, magical rituals celebrating the
cycles of life, death and rebirth, and honoring the sacred web of life.
I have taught herbal medicine since 1986
- in hospitals, medical schools, progressive learning centers,
and most joyously, outside with the plants. I have a year-round apprenticeship
program, a private consultation practice in NJ and NYC
and my book,
Healing Magic: A Green Witch Guidebook
to Conscious Living
is now available. (see
below)
Green blessings,

Healing Magic : A Green Witch Guidebook to
Conscious Living
by Robin Rose Bennett
Are you curious about magic? Intrigued by
herbal medicine? Feel connected to animals, birds, and trees? Then you have
come to the right place. Healing Magic will teach you how to practice
the positive and beneficial art of directing energy toward a desired outcome
for yourself and your community. Healing Magic is a natural process
of coming home to yourself and your own rhythms. It’s the experience of
conscious co-creation with nature and working within a sacred medicine wheel
as you add meaningful rituals into your daily life. Using stories, songs,
rituals, recipes, meditations, trance journeys, and simple practices, it
suggests more than 100 ways to practice the art of Healing Magic.
Healing Magic
will guide you to cultivate your own spiritual awakening, open up to joy,
and tap into the magic that is all around you.
"Your book reminds me that all things are infused
with life. It's a wonderful treasure, clearly written, down-to-earth, and inspiring."
Rosemary Gladstar, author, Herbal Healing for Women
"Your book is sheer MAGIC! I love how gracious you
are with words. Your heart shines through each page. THANK YOU." Jeannine Parvati, Author of Pre-Natal Yoga and Hygieia
"I am 17 years old and live in Springfield,
Illinois. One day in Barnes and Noble I came across your book, Healing
Magic. I just wanted to send you a message telling you how much reading
your book has changed my perspective and affected my everyday activities for
the better. It's as if I'm viewing the world through a slightly brighter
lens now. Thank you sooooooooooo much."
An herb student writes to her teacher: "I'm almost
finished with Healing Magic by Robin Rose Bennett and I just love it!
While reading I could feel things clicking in my mind, things falling into
place. I've gained a lot of knowledge and personal growth from reading it.
Much gratitude and blessings to (both you and) Robin for bringing that into
my life."
