Hi! I’m Mira.
I am a nurse-herbalist and holistic health educator with more than a decade as a registered nurse and close to 30 years studying herbal medicine.
My greatest passion in all areas of my work is connecting people with the knowledge and tools to be empowered in their own health and healthcare.
I believe in the ability of the body and the spirit to heal, given the right environment and support, and I believe in the power of the plants to help us along the way.
Through practical herbal education, simple rituals, and evidence-informed guidance, I help people build sustainable self-care routines in the journey to greater health.
My credentials:
BA in anthropology (Bard College)
BS in nursing (University of Connecticut)
Foundations of Herbalism (The California School of Herbal Studies)
Herbal Foundations Program, levels 1 and 2 (Farmacy Herbs)
Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist
Certified Cannabis Health and Wellness Coach (The Cannabis Coaching Institute)
Certified Microdosing Guide (Microdosing for Healing)
Certified Lactation Counselor
+ numerous holistic trainings including reiki practitioner, Munay-Ki practitioner, certified kundalini yoga instructor, biomagnetic therapy, NADA ear acupuncture, biofield tuning
+ all I have learned as a breathing, healing, seeking human on planet earth, and all I have been graced to be witness to in the whispers of the plants themselves
While it is true that the human body is quite complex- we have 60,000 miles of blood vessels, 46 miles of nerves, literally trillions of synaptic connections in the brain- it is important to remember that the body is also amazingly simple.
We are in essence made up of earth, air, water and fire- the same four elements that all of creation is made of. The earth of our body comes from the soil, the vitamins and minerals we intake, the bioflavonoids from the plants we ingest. We are made of 60-70% water, the same water that flows through the rivers and oceans. The air in your body, the breath you breathe, is the same oxygen that is exhaled by the trees around you. And the fire- your metabolic fire, your life force, the energy that makes it all run.
What is the quality of your soil? What is the quality of your air? What is the quality of your water? And what is the quality of your fire?
The earth is calling us to heal.
In a world where our food, which is meant to be our source of nourishment and vitality, has become junk literally sickening us - choosing fresh, local, nutrient-dense food is radical.
In a world where we are told we are fine because our tests came back “normal” and we are fine and we are fine and we are fine until they can find a label for us- making choices to protect our health and vitality long before there is a diagnosis is radical.
In a world where we have more knowledge available to us than ever before and yet our life expectancy is going down- harnessing that knowledge to regenerate the living tissues of our bodies is radical.
In a world of blue light and metabolic dysfunction, stoking the fires of your mitochondria and the fire of your spirit is radical.
In a world of computers and smartphones and artificial intelligence and virtual reality - completely disconnecting and walking in the woods is radical. Being present to the smell of the pine forest is radical.
The earth is calling us to heal.
I am here to help you listen.
