meet camp leader Lisa
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE REMEMBER HOW MUCH WISDOM WE ALREADY CARRY?
I’d love to welcome you to the campfire.
Hi, I'm Lisa.
Campfire Medicine sparked from an unforgettable five day search for our sweet neurodivergent doggo, Touka, in the wilderness.
We found her.
That experience quietly changed the direction of my life.
In the language of Campfire Medicine, I’m a Trailblazer and Touka is a Moonkeeper. Somehow, that feels exactly right.
Over the next year, I began weaving together everything I'd learned over 17 years as a naturopathic doctor with the ancient wisdom of the Medicine Wheel, my deep love of nature, and one question that kept following me:
seventeen years of the same conversation.
In 17 years of practice, the same thing came up again and again. People arrived having already tried everything. They'd been thorough. They'd been disciplined. They'd followed the plan.
And they still felt unseen.
What kept striking me wasn't that they needed more information. It was that they'd been handed a map drawn for somebody else - and then blamed themselves for getting lost.
Campfire Medicine is the thing I wished I could hand them.
what campfire medicine is, and isn’t.
Campfire Medicine is health education. It draws on 17 years of naturopathic practice, but it is not a clinic and it isn't care. Nothing here diagnoses, treats or replaces your own health practitioner(s) - and when what you need is clinical care, I'll say so.
where this comes from:
— Seventeen years in naturopathic practice.
— Human Design energy principles, retold in the language of nature.
— A deep love of wilderness and one very determined doggo.
— The Medicine Wheel, and the rhythms of earth, water, air, fire, and spirit.
