Music of the Plants in Making Medicine with Susan Bowers

The Plant Spirit Podcast with Sara Artemisia

12/02/21 • 25 min

#005 - Have you ever heard of the Music of the Plants?
Join us for an intriguing conversation with herbalist Susan Bowers about her experience in making medicine with the Music of the Plants, a device first developed at Damanhur in the 1970’s and designed to translate the electromagnetic impulses of plants into melodies.
Susan is an herbalist and activist who lives her life in service to the plants and the Earth. She’s been practicing Herbal Plant Medicine for over 45 years. Her Grandmothers are Juanita, Marietta and Ruth, and she lives on the Port Gamble S’klallam tribal ancestral lands.
In this interview, Susan shares deep wisdom about what it means to be in right relationship with the plants. Here are some gems from her experience:
“Being in right relationship with plants, with the entire ecosystem of my garden and the wild places I forage means recognizing that all life is Sacred and Sentient. All life is interconnected.
My traditions have taught me that I must first sit with my plants and seeds in quiet. I then ask permission and give offerings, and listen to their reply. I explain what my intention is and who will receive help from the food and medicine they provide. I give gratitude to them for collaborating with me.
When making medicine this year I've been playing plant music with the Bamboo M, a Music of the Plants device. This adds another layer of healing to the medicine and food.
I feel more connected to the medicine because the music takes me out of my head and into my heart. That is key, being in your heart when you are working with the plant people. And they are happy to serve us if we acknowledge them and get permission.
The reciprocity between us is felt on a new level with the music. Science is now explaining what the ancient cultures knew. We are in this together, and a new paradigm has arisen and the healing of us all is happening now.”
In this episode, Susan shares about her experience connecting with Shane Mendonsa's work with Plant Music. To learn more about Shane's work, please visit his YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpjl7axNrHYPh53gezouYxA and on BandCamp at https://shanemendonsa.bandcamp.com/
