Everything on the Earth has a purpose, every disease an herb to cure it, and every person a mission.This is the Indian theory of existence.
~ Mourning Dove, (Christine Quintasket),1888-1936, Saiish

Native Americans are renowned for their medicinal plant knowledge. It is rumored they first started using plants and herbs for healing after watching animals eat certain plants when they were sick.

In order to protect these plants from over harvesting, the medicine men pick every third plant they find.

The Native American cultures have a spiritual view of life, and to be healthy, a person needs to have a sense of purpose and follow a righteous, harmonious, and balanced path in life.

Many modern remedies and medicines are based on the Native American knowledge of the different plants and herbs they have used for thousands of years.

All medicine plants are sacred.
