We are very excited about this wonderful new book, which reveals for the first time ancient Celtic methods of healing which have been preserved and handed down in Ireland since prehistoric times. The Celts respected plants as living beings, each with its own consciousness. They believed that every plant had its healing power, which you could assess if you observed its colour, shape, habitat, growth, smell and taste. They understood the effects of the moon and planets on their healing plants, and were keenly aware of the interplay of subtle energies and their involvement in healing. Gina McGarry is the director of the acclaimed Brighid's Academy of Healing in Westmeath, Ireland. Her synthesis of traditional Irish healing and her modern approach to holistic health has seen her reputation spread far beyond her native land.
