A Working Herbal Dispensary by Lucy Jones

A Working Herbal Dispensary by Lucy Jones

“This book is a rare gem, as it is not just re-writing every other herb book but comes from the heart of a busy practitioner who uses herbs clinically every dayLucy doesn’t just ‘use’ herbs to ‘fix what’s broken’, rather she understands how they holistically heal the whole person. These monographs are not just short paragraphs of what conditions the plants are ‘good for’, but a top-notch interweaving of tradition and experience that capture the medicinal essence of the plants. The binding of this book is going to become well-worn over the years.”
Sajah Popham, founder of The School of Evolutionary Herbalism and author of Evolutionary Herbalism

“Another wonderful herbal from Lucy, rich in ancient lore and insights from the Tibetan tradition brilliantly interwoven with wisdom, experience, and practical tips from a working herbalist and a self-sufficient one too! With fascinating and detailed descriptions of over one hundred herbs, enlivened by photos of herbs lovingly grown and foraged by Lucy, this book is testimony to the living tradition of herbalism in England and a great opportunity to learn how a clinical herbalist implements the tools of their trade. Thank you, Lucy!”
Anne McIntyre, medical merbalist (FNIMH) and author of The Complete Herbal Tutor and Healing with Flowers

“This work will undoubtedly go on to become canon in the arena of herbal medicine. It does not just provide information, with Lucy’s deep understanding and long clinical practice, it’s also experiential. A Working Herbal Dispensary takes us on a journey into the plant kingdom; a journey where we experience and really connect with the energies, and magic, we encounter when we work with healing plants.”
