BotanicWise was founded by Charis Lindrooth with the intention of providing a forum where plant wisdom can be shared and where like-minded people can connect and build a community to steward land, medicinal plants, and supportive relationships with each other. Inspired by the work of Rosemary Gladstar, David Winston, United Plant Savers, and many internationally acclaimed teachers and organizations in the herbal renaissance, BotanicWise strives to create space for land and plant stewardship, with an inner mission to cultivate alliances between plants and people, and between people and people. We are grateful for all who participate in this expanding green movement that invites perspective on the transformation of modern health and health care in this country.
The Tonic Way begins this week!

Hello Reader, In just three days, the first live class of The Tonic Way: An Invitation to Remember with Guido Masé begins. In these troubled times, supporting yourself with tonic herbs is essential. Why? For starters, the daily practice of taking tonic herbs opens a relationship with the plant world that is deeply transformative. As we turn to tonic plants and natural rhythms to transform, protect, and heal, here’s what we will learn… 🌿 How to approach optimal health using cyclical herbal protocols 🌿 Why it’s important to understand cycles within us, and around us—how they function and where pitfalls can occur 🌿 How to work with tonic plants to support stronger medicinal herbal protocols 🌿 How to craft a cyclical herbal tonic protocol that supports recovery from acute health issues 🌿 How tonic plant chemistry offers guidance rather than intervention 🌿 What it means to support living systems instead of managing them By the end of this journey, you will:🌿 Understand tonification as a living principle, not just a category of herbs…
🌿 Understand tonification clearly and confidently…
🌿 Apply tonic principles in real-world practice…
🌿 Think in systems, not symptoms…
Plants have always modeled reciprocity and responsiveness. Day-to-day, this work is essential and incredibly rewarding—for ourselves and the people we love. The Tonic Way invites us to remember.“As a medicinal herbalist, I consider myself to be a student and am perpetually on the lookout for excellent teachers. Guido is beyond excellent—he is truly a master teacher who cannot hide his deep passion for nature.
He puts an extraordinary amount of work into each class and touches upon every single aspect of the health and well-being of human beings. Guido's eloquent communication, excellent organization skills, and engaging personality make him a teacher whom I truly hope will be offering many more courses.” ~ L.

Hello Reader, You have more control over how you feel than you might think… actually, control might not be the right word…bear with me as I work through this… Herbalist Guido Masé says, “As we think about healing, we want to honor cyclical patterns inside us and apply that support in cycles. We want to do it in a way that honors the fact that we are full human beings that live in a context, both outside of us and inside of us.” When we start with listening and understanding, we build an...
