Bridgette from Crown Creator Studios joins Diana to talk about the personal side of plant medicine and the mind/body connection.
(0:00:00) - Exploring the Benefits of Plant Medicine (11 Minutes)
We talk about the mind and body connection and how plants can aid in movement. Bridget shares how she incorporates plants into her practice, like using essential oils, CBD lotions, salves, supplements, and burning sage or palo santo. We discuss the benefits of using plant medicine to help clear the mind, ground us, and relieve stress both physically and mentally. Finally, we talk about the importance of intentional use and ethically sourcing plants.
(0:10:59) - Plant Medicine for Healing and Transformation (7 Minutes)
We explore the potential for plant medicine to be used as a tool for healing and transformation. I share my personal experience using CBD to lower hypervigilance and anxiety, but note how THC can have varying effects on our journey, with the potential to increase hypervigilance and anxiety. We also discuss the importance of journaling in order to reflect on our experiences and start shifting narratives. Finally, we touch on the difficulty of accessing quality products and the need to call attention to food deserts.
(0:17:37) - Using Yoga and Herbalism for Wellness (7 Minutes)
We discuss how herbalism can be used to promote wellness and self-care. Bridget shares information about doshas and how they can be used to diagnose individuals, as well as how to use herbs to pacify your dosha and keep it in balance. We also talk about where to find Bridget and how to support her.
