Herbal Anarchy: Victor Cirone on Reconnecting with Nature's Healing Power
So he says authentic spirituality is so importantly a function of our connection with the Earth.
What if our civilization's sickness is making us ill? Registered herbalist Victor Cirone returns to The Good Mood Podcast to tackle this provocative question. In a captivating chat with Dr. Talia Marcheggiani, ND, Victor dives into the concept of Green Anarchism and how modern medicine might be more about fixing 'sick machines' than genuinely healing us.
He brings the ideas of John Zerzan and other Green Anarchists to the table, suggesting that true healing means aligning ourselves with nature's wisdom, something far removed from society's constraints. Victor explains how herbal medicine can guide us back to this natural alignment, contrasting it with the often rigid world of pharmacotherapy. Are our diseases just reflections of a pathological society? Can we heal without addressing these societal roots? These are the big questions Victor and Dr.
Talia grapple with in this thought-provoking episode. If you're curious about how plant medicine could offer a radical shift in how we view health and disease, this conversation is a must-listen.
