PLANT ALCHEMY, master plants and botanical wisdom

  • Thursday, 3 April, from 7:00 to 8:30 PM
  • Location: Espai Buit
Summary
"In this workshop, Juan will take us on a journey into the deep connection between plants and human beings through the lens of Plant Alchemy. Key themes of the workshop include: • The soul and spirit of nature in healing plants: How plants communicate and their language through music. • Transformation and healing: Explore the principles of plant alchemy as a pathway for physical and emotional transformation. • The bond between plants and human development: Understanding how the so-called master plants guide us in our growth. • A Portal to the spiritual realm: How plants can serve as a gateway to a deeper dimension of existence. • And finally, Juan will focus his presentation on Aloe Vera, considered by many as nature’s most complete plant: its magic and power as medicine for the body and soul. Juan will share its virtues, properties, history and legends, its magic and healing powers for both body and soul. We will discover the fascinating world of Aloe, a plant regarded as a true gift from nature thanks to its countless benefits and uses. We will explore its history, mythology and the legends that surrounded its use for centuries. As an expert, Juan will guide us through its therapeutic properties, breaking down its chemical composition and many applications for health, beauty and wellbeing purposes. We will learn why Aloe is known as ""the plant of immortality"" and how its use has transcended cultures and civilisations. But this experience will go beyond facts and science. We will dive into the ancestral wisdom of Aloe, possibly the most complete plant nature offers us, with its countless applications."

"In addition to the theoretical content, Juan will offer a hands-on demonstration using a fresh Aloe leaf. He will show us how to extract its juice, carefully explaining each step to obtain the pure gel and harness its multiple benefits. This will be a unique opportunity to see Aloe in its natural state, learn proper handling techniques and discover simple ways to use it at home."
