- Cedar "The Tree of Life"
✨UPDATE✨
During this video, I make reference to CEDAR as being a medicine of the past. It is still a very important medicine to many First Nations Cultures of the present day.
One of the challenges that many first nations cultures face is having their practices framed as past ones vs. living ones that are still active.
Please excuse my ignorance of this important fact in the creation of this video. I resonate with the understanding that these are living practices and will work harder to be sure to frame indigenous wisdom from active cultures in the present tense in future videos.

I’m a Native American and honestly speaking here. You are my go to guy next to spirit itself for learning about Mother Earths wonders. Thank you 🙏🤗😊🥰❤️
One fave herbalists also. Thinking about cedar last night, also last thousands of years
Me also
I'm an Indigenous person of the PNW. Your teachings are respectful and accurate. THANK YOU!!
Thanks for all the support and gratitude for the videos we have been making. This is the first one of this 2016 spring season. We are excited to be sharing more as the season unfolds.
Let us know if there is a topic you would like us to cover this year and we will see what we can do.
Just wanted to say thanks for the very detailed videos, they are a pleasure to watch. My family and I are planning to do more herbal and wild crafting adventures starting this spring, been gathering field guides and have been helping my 74 yr old mother who has parkinson's disease to follow a holistic natural approach to help with her debilitation, I'm pleased to say she has been off all meds for almost 4 yrs now using only lions mane mushroom, cbds, cannabis, and some supplements :)
Keep the good vids coming and stay happy and healthy, we're in central Montana if you ever get down that way hit me up would be fun to spend a day or two learning medicine with you.
I'm wondering, is this the red Cedar Tree?
Yes it’s “ Western Red Cedar “ it’s native to the Pacific Northwest of the United States 🇺🇸 and through west coast of Canada to southeast of Alaska
"I have an idea. Let's go on a cedar hike today." That sound like something I would say to a friend, who would promptly roll his or her eyes bur follow along anyway. I love cedars. I love how you always talk about the plant's spirits as well as the more typical biology stuff.
+The Last Grownup in the Woods Thanks, as you know, it is so important to keep in mind that these plants are also conscious beings, not just the stuff for making food and medicine.
Harmonic Arts Botanical Dispensary s
@@Herbal_Jedi It is great to see you write that. I studied Botany for 3 years at university and I love plants but have been criticised and mocked when I say plants have consciousness and can essentially "think". People laugh but I got to that conclusion from learning more and more about them and the only explanation was, for plants to evolve or do what they do there has to be awareness. It's so refreshing to see someone write this.
Get better friends! I'd freak out.
Can u help me identify the herbs .. its on my latest videos
It's worth noting that the famous household cleaning agent called Pine - Sol used to contain 8-12 % real pine oil that was harvested from old yellow pine tree stumps that were left in the ground after clear cutting for at least 20 years or older but not anymore since supplies became limited .
I've dug up several old cedar trees that were buried on my property and can definitely vouch for the intense smell of this pine oil which is highly flammable and very painful if it touches your mucous membranes or your eyes .
"Tree of life grew on both sides of the river and the leaves from the tree were the healing of nations"
And though he was an older strain of ganja he was still one of the most worthy cannabis cup winners of the 90’s.
Amen. And then they disobeyed their Creator. His answer? He clothed them with fur and animal skins and forbade them entrance into their beloved garden. There were two trees in the garden. :)
Who is The Living Water?
@@Garythedog3 Living water is unpolluted in an undisturbed watershed that flows in a stream exposed to sunlight and air. It is alive with good bacteria and microbes that are a big part of a healthy body. In today's world it will only be found in remote pristine areas. To drink this kind of water in today's world is truly a blessing.
The actual tree of life was a date palm 🌴
I have been binge watching videos on this channel. I love it! So informative and entertaining. As an anthropologist, I love hearing about the cultural significance of these plants as well. Thank you!
+Alicia Benjamin so glad to hear you are enjoying our videos, if your going to binge watch something its nice for it to be both educational and entertaining. Let us know if there is any plants you would like us to take a deeper look at this year.. ;)
Have you read Ethnobiologist, Nancy Turner's artful book on the Plants of Haida Gwaii? Linguistics, cultural respect, art, legends, family truths despite diverse truths.
As a lover of wetlands and wooded areas, and their indescribable poetic beauty, the best use of cedar, is taking shelter under its shade in the heat of summer, or to take shelter during snow storms, the deer seem to love to to take shelter under them in the winter.
I can't stop watching these videos! Speaking to my soul!!
The world is a better place when society reconnects with a true appreciation for the Earth and its many blessings it shares with us all!
And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Genesis 1:29
Thank you for your beautiful perspective and knowledge . I almost cried because I didn't realize any one still holds that knowledge got the communication to the plant kingdom. Everyone calls me crazy for me relationship to plants and animals. Thank you again. Keep doing you and stay blessed.
I have cedar all over my acreage and now I’ve learned to use it in my macrame. The little tables I create make my friends so happy! The scent is intoxicating.

Thank you so much for your reverence of this magnificent being. Love your ceremony. So sacred.
Loving connections with Cedar. Thank you for explaining the incredible gifts.
Cedar is one of my favorite essential oils, I had no idea it was such a powerful medicine. So grateful for the wisdom you share! 🙌❤️🔥 I will be sure to connect, respect and give thanks in the future.
So this is the second video of yours I watch and am officially a fan. Thank you so much for your wisdom!
I never thought about the connection and appreciation aspect. It makes perfect sense though, since plants can feel positive/negative feelings.
Thank you so much for this great video! I appreciate the teaching of how important it is to connect with the plant for permission to it's medicine. Very important
Yarrow, that was an awesome episode! I love watching your channel because I not only learn so much, but you have such a pleasant, kind, and reverential disposition and approach to imparting your wisdom.
It makes nature walks with my doggos that much more engaging! Many thanks. 💚
Your videos bring me to tears of joy
Thank you, very insightful and interesting. Great to see how you honoured the Trees, reciprocity and sacred ceremony.
The native flute and the stream running in the background. Just a wonderful feeling. I came looking for more knowledge on ceder and was able to relax too.
Yes brother this is real knowledge
Excellent! Love the Spiritual aspect in this video as well as medical values. Thank you 🙏
You have a special gift and thank you for sharing!
Wonderful! I had started to randomly eat that a few years ago, not knowing it was such a part of human culture.
Wow, I am so thankful I found your channel. I’ve been looking for someone with this kind of earth wisdom! I’m hooked thank you so much!
The cedar around my house is the Western Incense Cedar, Calocedrus decurrens. Very aromatic. The Native Nisenan and Miwok used the bark for their houses. The bark grows very thick and is fire resistant. Thanks for the good info! BTW what kind of hat is that your wearing? Its great!
The ceremony you held with the tree was very touching 💥
My cottage is 1950 and the bobes of my home are cedar! It is in excellent condition and a natural termite deterrent love it!

You are amazing,all my thanks Shannon from Michigan
You are excellent. Thank you
I am so happy to tell you I have a giant cedar tree in my yard, it’s 175 inches in diameter, which I think tells me it’s close to 200 years old. I hope it makes it to 1,000 but sadly I won’t be here to know. I love Tree, the fragrance she imparts to my home and garden is remarkable. I’m happy to hear all about her special, sacred qualities too, thank you Yarrow!
Thank you for a wonderful video about cedars. I live in a cedar forest. Now I know more about them.
Cedar trees are wonderful. We must thank Mother Nature for bestowing kindness upon us in the form of trees. Thanks for the video.
There is a Vortex in the Keweenaw Peninsula/Upper Michigan.....it is AMAZING....you get inside, hold the cedar trees, and close your eyes! WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!! They do a "people's fest" there yearly. Got a pic of the Vortex with "someone" in there, that really wasn't there.....I'd love to see you hit that! At Prospector's Paradise...Keweenaw County, Michigan!!
I’m from Michigan. Where is this. hattie1111@gmail.com. Thanks.
@@itsmehattie9493 It's the "Rock Shop" in the Keweenaw. You walk up behind the shop, and the vortex is up there. The owner will gladly show you!
This guy is awesome !! Love it. Great Stuff !! So knowledgeable
I love what you are doing. You love the nature. You invite the people back to connection to the nature. It has a tremendously importance, you are right and agree totally with you. You respect, honor the nature and you thank and express your gratitude to the plant, but please do not forget the Creator of all the things you promote. For HIM our entire reverence!
Such a beautiful way to communicate this information thank you namaste
Thank you! You are so good
Thank you so much ❤
Great clever and educational👍
I love to use this with appreciation and gratitude as a foot tea bath and ceremony for Mother Earth and Creator. Thank you so much for sharing your alignment with consciousness. ❤️🙏☀️Loretta Port Alberni
man your videos are amazing
Ancient Cedar of Lebanon grew larger than imagination .
I’m obsessed with the aroma of cedars
the western red cedar is a type of cypress and the denser branches and roots make very adequate hunting bows. I use the pieces of wood from the western red cedar that resemble yew in their red smooth papery bark for bow making. the fresh leaf tips are tasty when hiking
Accidentally wat hed this video when a new phone started playing CZcams videos automatically (which I don't normally do). I am so glad I did! I have always had a love affair with cedar, and now I know more of the reasons why.
❤the smell of cedar❤️
LOVE your videos...
I love your videos!
Great video, I have used cedar for over 25 yrs and I love how you approach Cedar and share how you use her.
Hi. How did you use it? Can it be used for diabetes?
I also love the smell of western red cedar lumber 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you.
I was born in B.C. Canada...grew up in Alberta...whenever my family would visit the coast when I was a kid , I would first think of the smell of cedar to remember home...rain and cedar perfect combination.😁
Green Qi is one of my favourite teas that you make. It makes me feel more connected to the forest when I am not in the forest :) Thanks for another great video :)
want to be and see,so grateful to see ,thankyou again :)with cedar and in the cedar forests,wowwwwwww mmmmmm

I believe this tree to be my Ancestors tree. I always heard oak is the tree of life..
This summer I have been such a lover of her!!
I have hugged her sat with her..
Yaas!
💖💞🌺👏🥰 love the wheel 💞💖
I have come across a few of your videos lately. I enjoy your videos about each plant and the sacredness in how to harvest. My property is surrounded by Cedars, Oaks, & Pines. I am now more interested in pursuing more medicine making. I have been making Elderberry tonic for quite a few years now. My Herbalism teacher told me we may need these plants some day for survival. I think she's right!
😆 love some of the editing on these older ones.
My dad is from by revelstoke, B.C. forest district and does salvage logging of cedars for hand cut shakes and shingles.
it is dying out now to find them handmade because machines make everything now, but what a lovely job he had out there. Only taking some of each naturally fallen tree, or scraps from logging companies. I grew up helping him cut cedar shake blocks and load the truck so the smell of cedar is literally the tree of life to me too 🥰
your awesome brother
