Praise for Thea’s New Book!

“What a fitting title for a marvelous book! From the opening paragraph…I was thoroughly and completely captivated… Thea’s account is refreshingly unique, deeply authentic and easily accessible to the reader. Woven into Wisdom of the Plant Devas is Thea’s own wonderful story and heartfelt deep relationship with the plant devas.

“Thea Summer Deer, a long-time teacher in the Wise Woman herbalist tradition sees the plants as sacred, their healing powers based on a personal and spiritual relationship between plant and healer. In her splendidly written new book she is a knowledgeable and impassioned guide not only to the spirits of 13 important healing plants, but also to a special way of thinking about our healing bond with the spirits of all the plants with which we live.”
