Read Plant Spirit Healing. Live it. BE it!!!

Pam Montgomery's book, Plant Spirit Healing is a beckoning portal, welcoming readers to embark on an infinite journey to restore our bonds to that which is natural, whole and healing. Montgomery takes the reader well beyond "using" plants - or their spirits - as medicine, and into a realm where we enter into relationships with plants' amazing sentience, uniting with their healing capacities on a body, soul and spirit level. We learn that as we do, we can go beyond an herbal protocol, and merge into becoming healing itself.

The information in this book is age-old and timeless, but Pam presents the accumulated wisdom in a way that can still the skeptic in our minds, broaden our perception, and nourish our confidence in our intuitive prowess. Pam teaches us that it is all people's natural birthright to be in relationship with nature, and that through developing kinship with plants - the very beings which sustain all other life forms on our globe - we in turn blossom into an existence that restores our ability to walk a sustainable, healthy, and soulful life path which we were meant to walk.

As a student of the plants for two decades, I've encountered a number of remarkable teachers and authors who share inspiring knowledge and personal experiences. Pam is the brightest blossom among my human teachers. I believe this is a direct reflection of her own close affinity with the plant spirits with whom she co-exists on a daily basis. Her approach is infectious. Pam's teachings are like a Holy Trinity of truths, a Triple Goddess treasure trove, a healing balm for our wounded hearts, souls and spirits. With a contagious exuberance of a young maiden gathering flowers in a summer meadow, Pam entices others to open their own child-like hearts so we can delight in life's nectar. Like a dedicated mother, with a spirit of compassion and driven by an inherent ambition to help humans raise their consciousness on behalf of all life, Pam's mature and practical approach satisfies our adult demand for practicality and groundedness. Like an ancestral grandmother, Pam's words engulf us in an embrace of ancient wisdom that reach into the parts of our souls that have remained connected to source energy.

I recommend reading this book, and more so, recommend living this book.

beautiful dance of plant spirit and us

This book is so beautiful. Not only are we on the journey with the author, which is a great way of teaching one "how to", but she takes us into another world that we all could find serene delight in. From the lovely flowers to the leaves; we learn their energy and dance.

An outstanding work!

Well written, the book is accessible to readers unfamiliar with the concepts presented as well as appealing to someone already versed in the practice of communication with plant spirits. Even if no healing is pursued, realizing the wonder of plants and gaining an awareness of their gift of life to us will be a blessing to us all!

Fascinating!

This is a beautifully written, very personable book about a subject that all holistic people need to be educated about and begin to factor into our reality. This book enables us to go steps further once we've become aware that all plants are sentient, which lab experimentation has already proven but is still looked at with great doubt by many. The author has learned from Eliot Cowan, the "father" of American plant spirit medicine, as well as from a lifestyle devoted to being a healing woman of Nature.

Plant Spirit Healing

Okay, maybe it's just me but it's been hard to read this book. Not because I do not understand it, I understand what Pam is trying to say just fine. And that's the problem. There is nothing new so far that I have not read in other sources. I went ahead and gave the book three stars, grudgingly.

The problem is boredom. I am well over half way through the book and it is had taken me a long time to get there because I lose interest due to old subject matter being rehashed. She spent the first half of the book pretty much going over information that has been around for awhile now (The Field came out in 2001 and is a good intro into psi subjects. The Field has long been since been superseded by McTaggart's more current books The Intention Experiment and other work). Information on plant consciousness and chakras has also been around for sometime now.

Unless you are young (late teens, early twenties) and/or just starting your studies in psi subjects, eastern practices, etc., or you have never read anything on any of the subjects Pam talks about (a real novice/beginner), you might find this book hard to stay awake through.

What Pam should have done is give a much shorter reference (more like a nod than a full blown talk) to the topics she spends chapters on in the first half of the book and move on to the current application instead. For example say "There are too many references on the subject of plant consciousness but a quick note here .... " or "There is not enough room to cover everything about chakras here but in short...." for example. List some of those references/books in the appendix for those who want to learn more about chakras, plant consciousness, etc. Then move on to what she really seemed to be getting at. Preferably something most readers may not already know or expand on what is currently being done.

Part three should have been the largest section of the book, not the smallest (sadly disappointing). There are so many plants that could have been included (for part three). Instead, everyone is taught, again, how to clear chakras, among other old topics. Shame. There should have been far more original thought to the subject Pam is attempting to share with others.

Maybe part three looks like it might have some interest but so far I can not say I would recommend the book to others.

:: Shrugs:: To bad, it looked like it might be worthy of shelf space. Then I began rereading what I already knew.

A hands-on approach to working with the healing powers of plant spirits

? Explores the scientific basis underlying the practices of indigenous healers and shamans

? Illuminates the matrix where plant intelligence and human intelligence join

? Reveals that partnering with plants is an evolutionary imperative

Indigenous healers and shamans have known since antiquity that plants possess a spirit essence that can communicate through light, sound, and vibration. Now scientific studies are verifying this understanding. Plant Spirit Healing reveals the power of plant spirits to join with human intelligence to bring about profound healing. These spirits take us beyond mere symptomatic treatment to aligning us with the vast web of nature. Plants are more than their chemical constituents. They are intelligent beings that have the capacity to raise consciousness to a level where true healing can take place.

In this book, herbalist Pam Montgomery offers an understanding of the origins of disease and the therapeutic use of plant spirits to bring balance and healing. She offers a process engaging heart, soul, and spirit that she calls the triple spiral path. In our modern existence, we are increasingly challenged with broken hearts, souls in exile, and malnourished spirits. By working through the heart, we connect with the soul and gain access to spirit. She explains that the evolution of plants has always preceded their animal counterparts and that plant spirits offer a guide to our spiritual evolution--a stage of growth imperative not only for the healing of humans but also the healing of the earth.
