WELCOME TO BLUE DEER

A return to nature. The medicine of remembering.

We were never meant to live lives of constant exhaustion

to rush from one thing to the next
to measure our days by how much we can produce
to push past tiredness, override our bodies, and call it normal

We were never meant to give everything we have
to a system built on extraction
our time, our attention, our energy, our lives

We need seasons
We need rest
We need nourishment
We need stillness
We need time to come back to ourselves

Plants have always been part of that remembering

We bridge Earths Traditional Herbal Medicines AND​ natural world intelligence

with the Cosmic invisibles

to create 

TINCTURES & TEA

that 

RESTORE your body to a state of vibrancy, health & vitality.

I have met a lot of Mushrooms in my time. Worked with them as medicines in tinctures and powders for myself and clients. Journeyed with them beyond the scope of what I ever dreamed was imaginal and met them on hikes and in the garden.  

Conversations with Mushrooms is just that - a collection of stories, teachings, insights, wisdoms and humour shared by some on the mushroom folk that have found their way to Earth and I've been grateful to have the pleasure of connecting with.
