In this episode I sit down with a returning guest, my friend John Slattery who serves as a bioregional herbalist in the American Southwest. During our talk, John shares his stories and knowledge about what he has learned while delving into his self-discovery journey in connecting with his European heritage. John talks about his travels to Ireland, South America, and more. John discusses some of the unconventional knowledge and ideas about the history and spiritual landscape of the indigenous European peoples, especially in Ireland. We discuss ties to the landscape, animism, storytelling, and the importance of a personal spirituality tied to the land and its energies, among so many other topics.
