Strange Magic Podcast - A podcast by Amanda Yates Garcia, Carolyn Pennypacker Riggs - Fridays

Join herbalist, artist and comedian Melanie Griffin of Magenta's Magical Medicinals, and host Amanda Yates Garcia, as they discuss spiritual and herbal means for coping with the stress of 2020. This episode covers a lot of ground, ranging from overcoming the militaristic medical complex, to working with herbs to ameliorate depression. Plants are not just resources to exploit but beings to establish relationships with. Our spiritual practices connecting with the plant world can be a lifeline in troubled times. We talk about specific herbs you can work with to cope with stress, depression and frayed nerves, and other ways, besides ingesting them, to work with plants. Plant work is ancestral work, join us and find out why.
