About Author

BIO: Alex has always had a profound love for plants and as a child would help his aunty Joy next door to do her gardening.

His paternal grandmother was a herbalist in her way and the influence of the family lineage is felt today. As a young parent and smallholder, Alex practised herbalism using Juliette de Bairacli Levy’s books along with A Modern Herbal, by Mrs M. Grieve to great effect and learned experientially, participating in developing a herb nursery at that time too.

Alex’s love for Nature has been his guiding principle now for many years and his decade-long apprenticeship to become a Fir Feasa was an utterly transformative period of his life, giving him the tools to really engage in the deep healing he is committed to on both a personal and community level.

Being both a deeply spiritual and practical man Alex left no stone unturned in his search to find the truth of our situation at this time on earth has given him a great and broad range of experience in many experiential methods of healing and evolving one's natural consciousness.

During this time Alex attained an MSc in Sustainable Development with Exeter University and discovered during his research in the area of Education for Sustainability, that in order for people to become sustainable they had to become re-enchanted or fall in love with Nature. He participated at international level and trained as a facilitator of; Ecovillage Design Education, Training for Transition, Transition to Resilience Training, Community Resilience Training and these required extensive immersive group residential training's in various parts of the world.

Alex has extensive experience in innovative group work and participatory learning. Alex joined up with Nikki to begin Nature Resonance Medicine and formed the Plant Medicine School a few years ago. Alex is responsible for administration and the online element of the school and is enjoying formalising and furthering his own education in the realm of plant medicine. Alex also set up the Way of Life apprenticeship in partnership with Nikki.
