Herbal medicine is the medicine of the people. It 
          is simple, safe, effective, and free. 
          Our ancestors knew how to use an enormous variety of plants for health 
          and well being. Our neighbors around the world continue to use local 
          plants for healing and health maintenance. You can too. 
        Learning About Herbs
        
        Information on herbs and their uses has been passed down to us in many 
          ways: through stories, in books, set to music, and incorporated into 
          our everyday speech. Learning about herbs is fun, fascinating, and easy 
          to do no matter where you live or what your circumstances. It is an 
          adventure that makes use of all of your senses. Reading about herbal 
          medicine is fascinating, and a great way to learn how others have used 
          plants. But the real authorities are the plants themselves. They speak 
          to us through their smells, tastes, forms, and colors. 
        Anyone who is willing to take the time to get to know the plants around 
          them will discover a wealth of health-promoting green allies. What stops 
          us? Fear. We fear that we will use the wrong plant. We fear poisoning 
          ourselves. We fear the plants themselves.
        
        These fears are wise. But they need not keep us from using the abundant 
          remedies of nature. A few simple guidelines can protect you and help 
          you make sense of herbal medicine. This series of short articles will
