🌿 Ethnobotany & Medicinal Uses of Cannabis: CBD, THC and Beyond 🌿
For millennia, cannabis has been honored as a sacred plant, a bridge between the human spirit and the natural world. Across cultures, it has been used not only as medicine but as a spiritual ally - inviting introspection, ritual, and healing. In this immersive class, we will journey into the ethnobotany of cannabis, exploring its sacred history, cultural significance, and profound role in human wellness.
You’ll discover the ancient traditions that revered cannabis, from Indigenous ceremonies to Ayurvedic and Chinese healing practices. We will explore how societies have woven this plant into medicine, ritual, and daily life, connecting the wisdom of the past with modern understanding. This is more than a study of science; it is an invitation to honor a plant that has shaped humanity for thousands of years.
This class will guide you through the energetic and medicinal properties of cannabis, focusing on CBD, THC, and the many cannabinoids and terpenes that interact with the body and mind. You will learn how these compounds can support balance, ease tension, and awaken vitality, all while understanding how to use them safely and mindfully.
We will delve into the subtle ways cannabis interacts with the endocannabinoid system, the body’s internal regulator of harmony. You’ll explore non-psychoactive uses for pain relief, inflammation, and nervous system support using tinctures, teas, oils, meditation, and ritual practices… discovering how cannabis can nourish body, mind, and spirit.
This class is an invitation to approach cannabis with reverence, curiosity, and respect. Through stories, traditional practices, and experiential guidance, you will deepen your connection to this sacred plant, seeing it not only as medicine but as a teacher and ally. Whether you are a healer, herbalist, or seeker, this class will guide you into a profound communion with one of the world’s most ancient medicinal plants. 🌿
