Summary

Weaving together herbal and medical traditions from around the world into a singular cohesive model, this groundbreaking audiobook guides herbal practitioners to a comprehensive understanding of the practice and philosophy of healing with herbs.

Sajah Popham presents an innovative approach to herbalism that considers the holistic relationship among plants, humans, and the underlying archetypal patterns in nature. Organized in five parts moving from the microcosmic to the universal, this work explores a unique integration of clinical herbalism, Ayurveda, medical astrology, spagyric alchemy, and medical and esoteric traditions from across the world into a truly holistic system of plant medicine. 

A balance of the heart and the mind, the science and spirit of people and plants, Evolutionary Herbalism provides a holistic context for how plants can be used for transformational levels of healing for the body, spirit, and soul. For both the student herbalist and experienced practitioner, Popham's original perspectives guide listeners to a more intimate, synergistic, and intuitive relationship with the plant kingdom, people, and nature as a whole. 

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic reviews

"This is no simple compendium of herbal recipes and cures, but a book that digs deeply, exploring the roots of humanity’s spiritual and physical illness and the amazing power of plants to heal. Evolutionary Herbalism masterfully blends the metaphors of science, metaphysics, medical astrology, and alchemy into a deeply insightful journey that takes us to the very heart and soul of herbalism and provides a holistic model for understanding people and plants." (Rosemary Gladstar, author of Rosemary Gladstar's Medicinal Herbs: A Beginner's Guide)

"Well researched at the scholarly level, Evolutionary Herbalism includes the author's own profound experiential knowledge of the subject. Pushing the boundary of modern herbal medicine, this book provides us with a new vision of the herbal realm teeming with life and intelligence that will work with us as a partner and powerful ally once we understand how to initiate that contact. Sajah Popham provides us with a wealth of hard-won tips and guidance to open that wider vista of the herbal realm." (Robert Allen Bartlett, author of Real Alchemy: A Primer of Practical Alchemy

"Sajah Popham has written an intelligent and genuine book in which his deep caring for the world and the suffering of people shines through. Evolutionary Herbalism is a wide-ranging, synergistic exploration of multiple systems of traditional herbal healing." (Stephen Harrod Buhner, author of Plant Intelligence and the Imaginal Realm)

Cannot get over the narrator - get the book

I just cannot get past the narrator to listen to it. `my mind just wanders off. Sorry
Shame as the content is great.
So my advice is get the book. Though the audiobook comes with a PDF of the book.

Fascinating Book, well read!

This book was so helpful, so interesting! Unlike another reviewer, I found the narrator perfect and perfectly suited to the topic. I have just finished and am delighted to find the PDF attached. Thanks to the author for sharing your knowledge.

Great book but can't handle the narration

I should have taken more heed of those who struggled with the narration. It sounds to me like he's reading a foreign language and so has no idea of what he's actually saying. Totally the wrong person for the job imo especially if you've ever heard the author talk. I've had to give up listening which is a shame as the content of the book is great and I was really looking forward to relaxing into it each evening.
