Harnessing Plant Wisdom for End-of-Life Care: Embracing Nature's Guidance for Conscious Living and Dying With Plants: Plant-based Palliative Care is an all-encompassing handbook that includes herbs, floral essences, aromatherapy, and homeopathy that are regularly utilized. It also includes secrets for supporting the heart, soul, spirit, and body during the journey of dying. Through his profound understanding of how plant medicine can facilitate the release of unprocessed feelings, experiences, and belief structures, John J. Horton skillfully honors the plant kingdom. He does this by sharing his profound knowledge of how plant medicine can help ease and support those who are nearing the end of their lives, as well as all the transitions that one goes through throughout their life's journey. I am required to be a student of life since I am a writer. This, of course, encompasses the concept of death, as the two are components of the same entity. You can only imagine how unsettling it was to learn that the topic is almost completely off-limits in the communities of the Western world. What a delightful discovery it was to then find John J. Horton's field guide to nature's treasure trove of plants that were hiding in plain sight, willing and able to assist us in the ultimate transition with dignity, grace, and ease! What a wonderful gift!" David Seidler, winner of an Academy Award for his work on "The King's Speech" This once-forbidden information has been smuggled across the decades by John, and as a result, many women have given their lives practicing and protecting it. Now, John is revealing and sharing this ageless wisdom in his voice, which is kind and generous. His work is an old salve, allowing us to step away from the corporatization of death and dying, and gently takes us back into the loving arms of Mother Nature." - Clara Moore Hendon, Producer, Studio Seven 13 "The profound sorrow I felt as a result of being a witness to a great number of deaths that were accompanied by anxiety and fear throughout my twelve years of service as a hospice nurse served as the impetus for me to look for ways to assist individuals in having a more peaceful transition. John's book is a bridge to getting to the fundamental source of that fear. I am excited about this resource, not only as a tool to help end-of-life care but also to offer guidance in using plant medicine to bring forward unresolved concerns before one gets to their dying bed. This is your reference guide on how to prepare for a beautiful spiritual passage." - Carol Meckley RN, BSN, LMT "For those of us who honor nature and want holistic health care, this easy-to-use guide gives end-of-life support in keeping with our values. In these pages, medicine woman John returns nature's wisdom to the dying process, even as he returns death to its rightful place in the wheel of life. As someone who supports the dying and their caregivers, as well as clients of all ages and stages who are dying to an old version of themselves, I am grateful for John's practical suggestions on how to partner with the wisdom of plants to support the multi-layered processes of conscious living, conscious dying and conscious grieving." - Melody LeBaron, Author of Transforming Death: Creating Sacred Space f or the Dying
