One brother studies plants. One cooks them. They came to the same conclusion. 🌿

In "Plant Power", the Bijdendijk brothers—one an ethnobotanist, the other a Michelin-star chef—invite you to witness the convergence of knowledge and craft. Here, food is not passive. It is performance-enhancing, ritual, and revelation.

Modern life has distanced us from the wild intelligence of nature. We live longer, but not always better. Our shelves are full, but our spirits and bodies are depleted.

This book is a call to restore the sacred view of nature and its plants—by tasting, seeing, and understanding their origins, their stories, and their healing powers.

When the kitchen and the forest meet, food becomes more than pleasure or fuel. It becomes a ceremony of reconnection—a way to remember that we are part of the living world, not apart from it.

"Plant Power" is more than a field guide or a cookbook. It is a richly illustrated journey through 30 medicinal plants and mushrooms, each explored through scientific insight, cultural history, and hands-on recipes. With practical guidance, ancestral wisdom, and 60 vegetarian recipes by a Michelin-star chef, this book is a must for any home chef with an interest in nature and plant medicine.

Join us at the table where knowledge and craft converge, and discover the living intelligence within every meal. Get your copy today.

We mourn the loss of Jane Goodall, whose life exemplified compassion, curiosity, and fearless advocacy.

She was not only the world’s most celebrated primatologist and a pioneering conservationist—founding the Jane Goodall Institute, establishing the Gombe Stream Research Centre, and launching the Roots & Shoots program to empower youth—but she also generously used her voice to deepen public understanding of the spiritual and ecological aspects of life.

In particular, her foreword to The Intelligence of the Cosmos and her contribution to Science, Soul, and the Spirit of Nature helped position these works as connections between science, consciousness, and the sacredness of our planet.

Her legacy will endure in generations inspired by her example, through every forest she helped protect, every young mind she encouraged, and every heart awakened to our kinship with all life.

May she rest in peace, and may we carry on the work she so passionately embraced.

This week's frequency check: You're allowed to feel good in your own skin without apologizing for it. The Goddess of the Shining Sea has something to say about why we dim our natural sensuality... and how to turn that light back on. She emerges when you're ready to confront the invisible barriers around your relationship with your own body and pleasure.

This Water element goddess speaks to the conditioning that teaches shame about natural sensuality—performance anxiety, body shame, or pressure to be "perfect." These aren't personal failings; they're collective inheritances from cultures that suppressed the sacred feminine.

Why this resonates: You might notice patterns like feeling disconnected during intimate moments, apologizing for your desires, or dimming your confidence to avoid judgment. This card appears when you're tired of performing instead of being present in your own body.

How to work with her energy: Imagine yourself beside flowing water. As it flows over you, consciously release shame, fear, or performance pressure. Let the water wash away what was never yours to begin with.

The goddess reminds you: your body is yours. Your pleasure is sacred. Your sensuality is divine life force itself.

This isn't about perfection—it's about permission. Permission to inhabit your body fully and reclaim the joy that is your birthright.

What old stories about your body are you ready to wash away?

Renowned esoteric scholar Marguerite Mary Rigoglioso, Ph.D., sheds new light on the hidden legacy of Mary Magdalene and Jesus in her interview on Next Level Soul.

In this revealing interview, Rigoglioso explores ancient traditions and spiritual mysteries, contemplating whether Mary Magdalene had children with Jesus and how their lineage may have influenced generations across Europe and beyond.

Drawing from her groundbreaking research in 'The Secret Life of Mother Mary,' the author invites viewers to reconsider Mary Magdalene's vital role and the wider implications for spiritual awakening and divine feminine wisdom.

Did you know your emotional state directly affects your dog's health? Dogs literally absorb our stress hormones & vibrations through their sensitive systems. Your heart's electromagnetic field is 5,000 times stronger than your brain's and extends over two feet from your body - your dog feels this energy constantly.

The beautiful truth? Healing your pup might start with healing yourself! Here are simple daily changes that benefit BOTH of you:

🌳 Get near trees & hug them! Trees naturally calm our nervous system, reducing the stress our dogs absorb from us. Even 10 minutes in nature can shift you both from fight-or-flight to rest-and-digest mode.

💚 Practice heart coherence - When you breathe deeply and focus on gratitude or love, your heart rhythm becomes coherent, creating a calming field your dog can feel and mirror.

🌿 Mindful moments together - Your dog reads your emotions constantly. Taking conscious breaks to relax, breathe, and be present helps regulate both your nervous systems.

🚶‍♀️ Fresh air walks - Natural environments don't just exercise the body; they restore emotional balance and strengthen your energetic bond.

Remember: chronic stress in you creates chronic stress in your dog, potentially affecting their immune system, digestion, and overall health. But the reverse is also true - when you find peace, your dog can relax too.

Your wellness journey is a shared one. Every step you take toward balance creates a ripple effect of healing for your beloved companion. 🐕💕

Learn how small, natural changes can make a big impact in The Herbal Dog by Rita Hogan. Available now wherever books are sold.
