Kathryn Solie: The Wisdom of Poisonous Plants

Kathryn Solie is widely known for her work as a "poisonous" plant educator. She feels that her current mission is to foster a greater cultural understanding of certain aspects of plant consciousness and, ultimately, to help build a community of unique practitioners who engage in dialogue, learn from, and support one another, both in their commonalities and differences. She believes that together, we can recover the most ancient human lineage—our relationship to the wisdom of the plant kingdom. Kathryn studied painting at Naropa University, a Buddhist-inspired school in Boulder, Colorado, completed a sacred plant medicine apprenticeship with the Gaia School of Healing in Putney, Vermont, and underwent training in Hakomi, a mindfulness-based, body-centered psychotherapy. While all of these trainings have influenced her work, they pale in comparison to what she has learned from the plants themselves.
