Description
This week, we sit in the tub with Mars: Secular Sabbath collaborator, folk herbalist and earth lover. Mars inspires us by outlining the path she went through on her journey in coming back to herself and her culture through herbal healing. As she went on to help others heal themselves through her Dose of Diosa community, she guides people through remembering, a term which carries bespoke meaning for Mars.Through exposing the people around her to their states of remembering, Mars speaks to moments of sharing with women, bringing themselves back to nature through learning about the healing properties of everything the Earth has to offer us. Mars shares how powerful these rememberings have been in what she calls “shifting consciousness.”Mars recounts her journey in reconnecting with her heritage of the indigenous people of El Salvador, starting with an intimate tea ceremony as an inspirational healing practice. The intuitive feeling that grew from this personal healing is what drove her to her purpose: plant healer and teacher. Starting out by attending events with her own blend of herbal teas, Mars spread her mission of guiding people to have safe spaces with nature from walks to plant medicine ceremonies. She learned entrepreneurship through trial and error, and in this conversation, she tells stories of where she has been (from working at an insurance company) to where she is going. After discovering her passion for healing, Mars continues to explore new avenues in which she can further this self awareness by exploring her dreams. Referencing our own Secular Sabbath Book Club read, Dream Yoga, Mars explains how dreams can further this remembering, and dreams also express areas of her inner psyche. Spaces that are open for healing. As Mars recounts her experience of living a conventional 9-to-5 life in hopes of changing and rewriting her indigenous history, she finds through her remembering that the Earth has always given her everything she needed.
