Episode #312: Monica Gilliam, Reconnect with Nature to Reset Your Nervous System

Hello Health Heroes!In this episode of Tim James Upgraded, I sit down with Monica Gilliam—acupuncturist, herbalist, plant enthusiast, and creator of TalkToThePlants.com—to explore a radically simple idea: what if plants aren’t just medicine… What if they’re doctors too?We get into the science and the magic of it all—how words, thoughts, and energy impact water, plants, and your biochemistry. Monica shares how a simple moment trimming ivy in Seattle turned into a lifelong relationship with plant consciousness, and how that led her from contemporary dance to a master’s in Chinese medicine to helping people reconnect with nature in a very real, practical way.We talk about why some people heal and others don’t, how your choice and your inner state matter more than the technique, and how your plants can actually mirror what’s going on with your nervous system, stress, and relationships. You’ll hear wild stories—like plants “ratting out” what’s really happening with their humans and a weed that practically called Monica over when she needed emergency help.If you’ve ever felt better just walking through a park or putting your hand on a tree, this episode will help you see why—and how to use plants as partners in your own healing journey.Enjoy the show!Love & Light,Coach TimP.S.
