Herbalism and storytelling for the heart.
By Holly Grace
The MeadoW:
an at-home, luxurious tea ceremony.
This tea set and journalling ritual was the maiden offering that launched the business. It went on to be a sell-out success, with all five star reviews. With its unique concept, design and delicious organic blend, it won multiple Golden Leaf Awards. The Meadow positioned The Wild and Her as one of the premium herbal apothecaries in Australia.
The store is currently on a creative sabbatical and will re-open soon with a full collection of herbal remedies and rituals.
Meet Holly
If I reached for herbal medicine to alleviate my pains, if I stood at the old stone bench and blended plants from my garden, and if I took the first sip and expected healing, I would most likely find myself back where I began.
Instead, I have found that the combination of wild-crafted herbs with rich contemplative story-telling is a blend that can relieve the ache.
After all, observing the soul life often plays a crucial part in healing the physical life.
So I invite you to sit with me beside this river as I weave words and plants together.
Perhaps you can take something from this daily practice of mine.
Stories
If life begins and ends with a story, then why not fill the entire (messy) middle with them also? Here is a collection of mine, so you can feel less alone with yours.
I hope when you read these stories you and your wonderful complexities feel held.
