I decided to take down some notes but I found myself writing out most of what you said because it all resonated so deeply. Plantwalkers have hope, yes, I truly believe they do. Sitting with the plant is, for me, Taoism being practised. Re-wild our hearts, love that. I live very close to a re-wilding property of 3,500 acres in Mid Sussex, Knepp Re-Wilding, I love going there. I educate my clients to help their horses re-wild by foraging, it blends with me so beautifully. Being fed beyond the plate! yes! Domei is a great neologism. See, it just all resonates, I am so thrilled to have joined Travel With Plants and thank you for this bonus of The Green Path, I am looking at all the plants I see, the dog walks has slowed down considerably.😊

So refreshed by this post, and looking forward to more, thank you.... I've never found others who feel in this way, apart from herbalists who seem shy about discussing it! I'm in Cambridge England and open to connecting with others. Currently hearing the whispery siren song of mugwort from the meadow nearby, encouraging entry to other worlds🌿

I'll be writing more on Domei and the contemplative lineage from these lands in relation to nature. Examples being folk like Hildegard of Bingen etc.

This post was a welcome breath to my world with your description of ‘Domei’ and its connection to the Celtic language. I have been struggling for some time to find a connection with someone here in England who wants to explore the world in this way. Your post has given me joy and inspiration to continue to follow your important works. Thank you.☘️
