His contribution to our home and his inspiration to us as defenders of our 'Aina was unfathomable ... beyond measure. Please send your thoughts and blessings to him and his family as he returns back home to be with the ancestors.
Medicine At Your Feet
Somewhere... There is a place of serenity. A place we can breathe deeply, walk slowly, pick our medicines right from the vine. Where we can take all the time we need to heal. To renew and refresh. A place where we can get to know ourselves again, to remember why we're here. Somewhere... there is a friend to help us in this journey. Someone who knows the ancient Chinese arts of acupuncture and moxibustion; who can show us where to find the hidden medicinal plants nestled deep in the Hawaiian Rainforest.
"With my
patients and students I work on a multitude of levels to help improve
their quality of life, but my specialty is taking them out into the
forests and jungles to teach them how to prepare plant medicines for
themselves. I find that the more people are actively engaged in their
own healing process, the more quickly they find their lives suitable
for human habitation."
"My work is more akin to gardening than it is to repairing an engine. I consider the emotional and spiritual aspect of our well being to be as important as any other aspect of our healing." - David Bruce Leonard
