Sara Jane Taylor "I perceive the human being as an energetic, holographic system and I believe all presenting ailments stem from vibrational patterns of energy, whether they are physical, spiritual, or emotional in quality. From this lens, the Spirit is included in the healing paradigm, also known as "Shen" in Chinese Medicine. This electromagnetic existence vibrationally links the spirit, meridians, chakras, and our aura directly to the universal field of energy." -SJ ➳Plant Medicine Teacher➳ Hello, I am Sara Jane Taylor. My passion is teaching and sharing the knowledge of herbal wisdom with students, friends, family, animals, and virtually anyone who is interested and open to the concept of healing with alternative medicine. I am a lover of life, believer in Plant Medicine, and I love to ethically wildcraft whenever the season is ripe. With over 20+ years as a Clinical Herbalist and an expert in the field of Flower Essence Therapy, I have taught at several herb schools, holistic fairs, spoken on herb panels, and lead many medicinal plant walks and classes. I generously share my herbal knowledge on the daily with clients and friends. You can find me this season at the Ridgway Farmers Market in Colorado and at a new location 565 Sherman St. in Ridgway, CO. I have been fortunate to teach plant medicine and share my love of the plants at San Francisco State’s (SFSU) Holistic Fair, the Appalachia School of Holistic Herbalism in Asheville, NC, and the Colorado School of Clinical Herbalism in Boulder, CO. I love teaching about Plant Medicine and educating the world on Flower Essences and have done so at some of the top US music festivals around including LIB (2015 & 2017) ARISE (2012 &2019) Symbiosis (2015) and Electric Forest (2015). ➳Healing Sessions ➳ Sessions are created to hold a safe and sacred container for each client to achieve greater health on all dimensions. I am available for herbal & flower essence consultations in person, on the phone, & through zoom live conferencing. In person bodywork sessions are available and designed uniquely for the client, weaving modalities of Zen Shiatsu, Craniosacral, massage, and herbal medicine allies. Sound healing (the gong) and plant musings of wildcrafted flower essences & essential oils enhance the treatment on subtle, vibrational levels, promoting a deep relaxation of the Spirit. Sessions are created to hold a safe and sacred container for each client to achieve greater health on all dimensions. The use of sacred plant bundles and their smoke in sessions helps to transmute energies and to send prayers directly to source. ➳My Herbal Path➳ I began the herbalist path after moving to the desert of Moab, UT. Upon my desert relocation, the herbal allies of leaves, flowers, roots, essences, & essential oils flowed my way for various ailments like sore throats, sprained ankles, colds, and emotional baggage. My new love for plants as medicines grew rapidly, and I began researching herb schools to attend that were providing a hands on experience to immerse myself in. This school would soon manifest as the Rocky Mountain Center for Botanical Studies in Boulder, CO. It was here that my medicine path & healing journey unfolded as I studied to become a Certified Clinical Herbalist with a background in Earth Centered Herbalism, Vibrational Medicine, Ethical Wildcrafting, Holistic Nutrition, & Medicine Making. Graduating three years later with medicinal plant knowledge in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Ayurveda, and Western Herbalism, my specialty would become the least known of the botanical treasures, the Flower Essences. Before beginning herb school, my relationship with the plants drastically deepened through an accident I endured after a long scramble amongst the redrocks near the La Sal Mountains in Moab, UT. Just as I locked my hands & feet into a nice 'crag' or 'hand jam' to make a very short ascent to the top of a mesa, my dog Lefty dislodged a boulder onto my head from above. It was in this moment, a flash of a few seconds, that my entire life would change forever. I would embark on a journey into the underworld and healing arts arena simultaneously, with an "undiagnosed" traumatic brain injury (TBI) and a "loss of self". A week after the injury and getting stitches, I had two Complete Partial (grand mal) Seizures. Mantra, visualization, quiet time, and craniosacral therapy would become my new allies utilized in combination with herbal medicine to expedite my recovery over the next 3-5 years. "It is through most importantly an attitude of "anything is possible" along with mantras, visualizations, herbal adaptogens, a plethora of flower essences, craniosacral therapy, cannabis, friends & family, and mass amounts of quiet time in nature that I lend my full recovery to." Sara Jane Taylor Basic symptoms of my TBI included a partial loss of vocabulary, slight amnesia, the entire gamut of emotions, two complete partial gran mal seizures (which also included a NDE), no energetic boundaries, numbness on the left side of my body down to my toes and fingertips, and a general feeling of being "out of body" for 2-5 years. ➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳ Through this direct and profound experience of healing oneself with plant medicine and alternative therapies, I have total faith in the power of plants and am awakened to the "belief" that we are entirely energetic beings. It has since been my life path to teach and educate the world about botanical medicines & alternative therapies, particularly the flower essences and craniosacral therapy. I generously share my intuitive insights, herbal lore, the wisdom of flower essence therapy & craniosacral therapy on a daily basis. ➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳ It is innately the plants healing design to aid the body in attaining homeostasis on all levels of being. ➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳
