Healing Connection to Nature (with-in and with-out) with Karyn Sanders

Karyn Sanders, herbalist and activist,  talks about healing our relationship with nature and our vital need for connection to all beings.

Karyn will also speak about how to overcome this separation and heal the wounds we have been carrying in our own lives.An essential evolution of Sacred Earth Activism is taking the step from healing our own trauma to then serving all our communities. Karyn will speak to this as she talks about her “sacred site” and “water” work and their meaning in the world.Karyn has been working with plants for most of her life.
