POTIONS
POTIONS
These potions were formulated so that the plants that have relationships with each other in the soil, are paired in the bottle too. They map particular garden niches and ecosystems that can map onto our body-minds as well. These potions were inspired by my relationships with particular plants and places, after living and cultivating herbs for nine years in coastal California on the unceded lands of the Awaswas Ohlone people. Each potion was poured in ritual space and in collaboration with, and in honor of, the plants that these drops hold. These potions are a love offering to place just as their medicine is a love offering to us- to help us feel more alive.
