The Healing Tree: Botanicals, Remedies, and Rituals

In The Healing Tree, Stephanie Rose Bird invites you into the wisdom of the forest: how to live within it, learn from it, and draw spiritual nourishment from it, while taking responsibility for protecting it.

It's part personal story, part cultural testament. Bird shares how trees and forest spirits healed her, then offers practical recipes, remedies, and rituals from African and African American spiritual traditions for mind, body, and spirit. Africa is her touchstone throughout, the ancestral wisdom that survived displacement and still thrives today. For earth-based practitioners, herbalists, and anyone who heals best among trees.
