LEARN MORE &amp;amp; REGISTER Welcome to another episode of The Plant Healer's Path. In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin sits down with Gulf Coast cunningman Howl Aza for a wide-ranging conversation about animism, rewilding, bioregionalism, herbalism, and what it means to truly belong to a place. Together, they explore an approach to healing that extends far beyond the individual. Howl shares his perspective on the self as something shaped by the totality of our relationships—with our bodies, families, communities, plants, animals, landscapes, and the other beings with whom we share our lives. They also discuss what an herbalism informed by animism and deep ecology might look like, including the importance of local plants, reciprocity, tending relationships with place, and considering the entire life cycle of the medicines we make and use. Throughout the conversation, Howl and Wolf reflect on wildness, responsibility, discomfort, presence, and those powerful moments when we realize that we aren't simply visitors to the natural world—we belong within it. Whether you're an herbalist, naturalist, animist, rewilding enthusiast, or simply interested in cultivating a deeper relationship with the living world, this conversation offers plenty to contemplate. If you'd like to learn from Howl and Jesse Wolf Hardin in person, join them at the 2026 Good Medicine Confluence.
