A groundbreaking comprehensive exploration of ancestral and Indigenous medicinal uses of mushrooms and their cultivation, covering mycelial networks from the perspective of whole human health.
Fungi are the Alpha and Omega of this planet. Through their connections to the rock, soil, air, water, plants, animals, and humans, fungi hold our ecosystems together. They carry medicinal compounds that can be isolated and studied by scientists, and they carry something less available to scientific study, something ineffable known by many indigenous peoples. Fungi carry a vibration of connection, a way of being in the world.
This comprehensive guide explores the deep, interwoven web of the mycelial network from the perspective of the whole of human health for the lay reader. In Section One we discover what mushrooms tell us about how to be in right relationship with the natural world, with other people and spiritual world. In Section Two we explore a variety of diseases and disorders - the consequences of imbalance in our relationships. We also meet the mushrooms that have shown up to assist us with these diseases. In Section Three we take a deeper dive into a variety of medicinal mushrooms to learn their stories, their way of living and what they have revealed to science. In Section Four we explore our direct relationship with these mushrooms, how to grow, preserve, and ingest them as food and medicine.
Medicinal Mushroom Profiles include entire chapters on: Reishi Lion’s Mane Cordyceps Turkey Tail Chaga Maitake And many more!
This book is for those who have been failed by the conventional healthcare system and are turning to medicinal mushrooms for answers. And for those wishing to bring the wisdom of these mushrooms into healthcare as in many other countries. Likewise, herbalists and mushroom cultivators will take their understanding of the medicinal benefits of mushrooms to the next level.
