The Forest Bath

This episode is in collaboration with Maine Fungi Fest & Permatours! I am so excited to share this collection of interviews that span across the burgeoning hype of mushrooms in our culture. As mentioned before the world of Fungi is the link to the Underrealm - the unseen depths of these wisdom keepers is endless and vast. In this episode we speak to well renowned herbalists, mycology enthusiasts, authors, and teachers in their respective fields to get a small glimpse into that wide expanse.  Thank you from the depths of my heart for listening!

Welcome friends to episode three of the Forest Bath Podcast! Long awaited! I've been so excited to share and reconnect with you all! I really appreciate your patience for this episode and upcoming ones in the future. It does indeed take a long time to plan, write and schedule with all of our special guests. Thank you so, so much!  In this episode of the Forest Bath Podcast we are taking a walk with the mushrooms! Mushrooms are some of the first and most ancient primordial beings on this planet. There have been cultures, ideas, medicine, religion and spirituality, solutions and consciousness all expanded by the fungi kingdom. Today, we will walk and learn a little about our fungi friends with a dear human friend, herbalist and mushroom enthusiast Tanya Donatelli!  In the episode we will explore functional mushrooms and their role in herbal medicine and holistic healing, basic beginner friendly foraging advice, some culinary mushroom musings, as well as learning about Tanya’s own walk on the plant path to becoming a very accomplished herbalist, teacher, and small business maven newly relocated here on Wabanaki land. It's a fun one and I dearly hope that you enjoy it.  SHOW NOTES - resources, relevant links and other recs: Check out Tanya’s herbal offerings at : www.oakfairyapothecary.com and make sure to follow her on instagram @0akfairy with a zero ;)  🍄 MAINE FUNGI FEST : https://www.mainefungifest.com May 12th - 14th 2023!  Rooted Heart - Nyeela : https://www.rootedheartremedies.com EarthSpiralCommunity & Apothecary : https://www.earthspiralcommunity.com & https://www.earthspiralapothecary.com  TwinStar : https://www.twinstartribe.com  NorthSpore : https://northspore.com  SeedSoundHerbals: https://www.seedsoundherbals.com  Humboldt Seed Company: https://humboldtseedcompany.com  Mr. Paul Stamen’s Medicinal Mushroom Company;Host Defense:  https://hostdefense.com  BOOKS: Chanterelle Dreams & Amanita Nightmares by Greg Marley   https://www.amazon.com/Chanterelle-Dreams-Amanita-Nightmares-Mushrooms-ebook/dp/B005KTT7D2 National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Mushrooms  Edible and Medicinal Mushrooms of the Northeast by David Spahr : https://northspore.com/collections/mushroom-books/products/edible-and-medicinal-mushrooms-of-new-england-and-eastern-canada-david-spahr  Mushrooms of the Northeastern United States and Eastern Canada by Timothy Baroni  Radical Mycology : A Treatise on Working with Fungi by Peter Mccoy  https://northspore.com/collections/mushroom-books/products/radical-mycology-a-treatise-on-seeing-and-working-with-fungi-by-peter-mccoy  I have such deep gratitude for your presence here!

Hello friends and welcome to the Forest Bath Podcast  Today, we dive deep into the chilly depths of the Atlantic and connect with our earliest consciousness, our family of the sea. We meet with our go with the flow seaweed and learn all about her dance, her virtues, her unique and abundant medicine. I am so excited to welcome our first ever guest, Morgan Lea of Nautical Farms, a regenerative seaweed farm up in Machias, Maine! In this episode we talk about aquaculture, the ins and outs of seaweed farming, how seaweed plays a balanced role in aquaculture, how seaweed helps our planet, the animals & us humans, foraging and preparation, innovation and the really bright future of seaweed. In other places around the world seaweed has been eaten and used for thousands of years, but it is now gaining popularity in western diets and skincare. She is a ancient versatile ally that I personally think is worth getting to know. So lets dive in and all in the spirit of water and seaweed to sit with for a while.  NAUTICAL FARMS - https://www.nauticalfarms.com where you can get your own Maine seaweed and other beautiful goods and provisions  FOLLOW NAUTICAL FARMS @nauticalfarms on all socials.
