Join Laz for a plant circle which involves meditation, hypnosis, herbal medicine tasting and experiencing followed by herbal teachings.About this Event
Join Laz for an evening in circle, sharing a plant meditation followed by herbal education.
Whilst I love and value the science of herbal medicines, I know that herbal medicines are also a felt experience. For millennia people have used herbal medicines, long before we could measure how they work in the lab. We can sense where herbal medicines sit within our bodies, and tune in to their effects making quite a magical yet grounding experience.
In this plant circle I will begin by guiding you through a deep meditation and hypnosis. Then I will share with you a formulation of herbs to sip and experience, and you will be guided to sense where they land in your body and how they make you feel. It will be a somatic experience curated to help you get from your mind into your body and see how the plants speak to you.
After this I will share with you some of the science behind how the herbs work in the body, the traditional uses as well as lore behind the plants. All of this is to help you nurture your relationship with herbs and herbalism, and to teach you a practise that you can do at home and take with you on your herbal journey.
About Laz:
Hi, my name’s Rebecca Lazarou. I am a medicinal plant and fungi scientist, writer, speaker and herbal formulator. My career is an ecology of different disciplines spanning across medical science, ethnopharmacology, herbalism, holistic healthcare, cannabis and psychedelics.
I have a degree in Biomedicine-Human Biology, a masters in Medicinal Natural Products and Phytochemistry as well as a diploma in hypnotherapy. My work has spanned across Kew Gardens, the Mckenna Academy and Herbal Reality and I founded Laz The Plant Scientist to share quality herbal medicines, education and healing experiences with people.
Ultimately my aim is to help nurture our relationship with nature through natural medicines, and support our species return back to Earth centred living. I am devoted to science to demystify these topics, but equally I am committed to rekindling the magic, awe and healing we find on our precious Earth.
