“Numen is the animated force in all things living, and this is strongly demonstrated, although often taken for granted, in plants. Numen: The Nature of Plants explores the animated life force in plants and how it is intricately connected with human health and healing. The use of plants as medicine is one of the only forms of healing that’s embraced by every culture and ethnicity, and that has endured since ancient times and is still in use today in most areas of the world."
