Thank you both for sharing. There was a lot of wisdom here that was moving for me. I learned at least a couple things that hopefully I will be able to hold onto going forward.

]]> Comment on Stephen Buhner Interview: Herbs and foods that heal by Vincentd http://herbmentor.podbean.com/2008/06/22/stephen-buhner-interview-herbs-and-foods-that-heal/#comment-622141 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 23:03:25 +0000 http://herbmentor.podbean.com/2008/06/22/stephen-buhner-interview-herbs-and-foods-that-heal/#comment-622141 A great interview. I particularly enjoyed Stephens's broad philosophical and historical sweep. He shows how much has been lost in the Western style through his discussion of how Cuban doctors know not only their patient's conditions but the conditions in which they live. Stephen has also provided an important reminder that one of the tasks of the physician is to acknowledge mortality and to help patients prepare for, rather than deny, life's final transition. I greatly appreciated his thoughts on dosage in acute conditions and his call to rescue knowledge of the many active plants that have not made it into our formal materia medica. Thanks for this. Looking forward to the next interview. A great interview. I particularly enjoyed Stephens’s broad philosophical and historical sweep.
