More Than An Academic Pursuit
While writing this, I am still in school with a year ahead of me in the Quantum Botanicals Advanced courses. My mentor, Bonny Casel, is a powerhouse: teacher, healer, and everything in between. When I was younger, I would envision myself as someone like Bonny, but I didn’t think it was at all possible to achieve this type of wisdom and confidence.
As I continue my studies, I am constantly in awe of how Bonny merges science-based knowledge with esoteric wisdom. After many years of wishing and hoping I’d find the right teacher to help me fulfill this old dream of mine, I know I am in the right place with the right wisdom being passed down to me. Knowing Bonny, even simply by proximity, but especially as her student, has further emboldened me to get on my feet, hit the books, believe in myself, and have a real hunger for all the knowledge I have learned over this past year. Every day, I wake up knowing I have something to live for, attain, and be proud of- and it is all within my grasp. This is not merely an academic pursuit, but an expansive rite-of-passage into self-discovery and transformation.
Although I am a shy person, I have found some amazing friends within my classmates, and even Bonny herself has made me feel comfortable enough to open up and talk to her about any questions I may have along the way.
Every now and again in our lessons, Bonny talks about her own teachers, and recalls how fulfilling it was to learn from them. She speaks of them with such pride and reverence, and it is an honor to be initiated into this long-standing tradition of healers. Rest assured that someday in the future, someone will speak highly of Bonny in the same way, too.
