Psyche

Nervousness, insomnia, low mood, inner restlessness — the psyche speaks many languages, and it cannot be reduced to a chemical formula. Medicinal plants approach it on a level that reaches deeper than pure active ingredients: they carry an essence.

Three Phases of the Psyche

According to the signatura doctrine of Roger Kalbermatten, psychological processes can be divided into three phases — development, preservation, and metamorphosis. Every person passes through these phases repeatedly, and each calls for different support. Plants often have a clear association to one of these phases in their form and essence.

The soul is a garden — and every plant within it has its own time.

Plants for the psyche do not act against the soul, but with it. They do not take over — they accompany. And they open spaces in which transformation becomes possible.
