Spiritual Heart

According to traditional medicine of all cultures and in the teachings of Hildegard of Bingen, the heart is the seat of the soul. In the fourth century B.C., the Greek philosopher Aristotle identified the heart as the body's most important organ, the seat of all emotions.

The mystics of all traditions taught us that gratitude is the key to blessings from above. The famed Islamic physician Avicenna said, “when the heart is not healthy, the entire system is diseased". He introduced herbal action to arouse the vitality of the spiritual heart and incline the spirit towards joy and a higher purpose. I often create fresh herb tinctures in low doses for emotional healing in my Western herbal medicine practice.
