About the talk: This workshop is for anyone experiencing repression due to their work for liberation, as well as those involved in anti-repression and solidarity efforts. It explores how state and systematic repression impact the nervous system, body, and overall health, and how herbal medicine can offer support in both the short and long term. From calming acute anxiety to rebuilding after burnout, trauma, or imprisonment, herbs have a vital role to play in sustaining resistance. The session shares practical examples of herbal solidarity from supporting people post-arrest and in court, to navigating incarceration and healing after release. Grounded in lived experience and collective care, this workshop aims to nourish movements as much as bodies.

This is the audio version of a workshop that was originally an offering with the Railyard Apothecary in November 2024.

The workshop introduces the work of the Mobile Herbal Clinic Calais that has served over 10,000 refugees in Northern France with first aid and acute herbal care since 2019. Nicole also talks about herbal solidarity on the Poland-Ukraine border and lessons from other herbal refugee solidarity work. People will take away practical information about several of the medicines made en masse and learn what herbal medicine can look like in these challenging conditions.

This is an audio recording of the Overcoming Burnout book – with accompanying journal questions! Sign up to access a link to the show: https://solidarityapothecary.org/product/overcoming-burnout-podcast/

About the book:

Organising with others for human, animal and earth liberation can be one of the most empowering experiences alive. Yet frontline resistance comes with risks to our physical and emotional health that can lead many people to burn out and abandon social movements altogether.

This book is about overcoming burnout, linking the author’s journey of recovery with wider systemic forces such as classism, sexism and power dynamics in groups, poverty, chronic illness and ableism, as well as grief and trauma from prison and state repression. It is a call for models of mutual aid and collective care. Simultaneously deeply personal and acutely political, for anyone involved in grassroots organising, it is a must read.

She shares about the different sections and content of the book, where to buy it and more. 

The book blurb: State violence is a brutal reality for vast numbers of people. It is an experience that is racialised, classed and gendered in its design and application. It intersects with nearly all forms of oppression. Plant medicines can be a tool for solidarity and resistance; they can practically support us to survive and they can help us recover from trauma.

From herbal care for handcuff injuries to healing from incarceration, this book looks at examples from around the world of herbal solidarity in practice. Writing from her lived experience of incarceration, political organising and of running the Solidarity Apothecary, Nicole Rose explores some of the many connections between herbalism and struggles for liberation. Through recipes, remedies and stories from the herbal frontlines, she invites us to connect with our allies in struggle – the plants – to rest, to heal and to continue the fight.

This is part four of a workshop that explores herbalism, incarceration and abolition. This particular section introduces abolition (very briefly!) as well as the roles of herbalists in abolitionist movements.

About the workshop: This workshop explores the role of herbalism in supporting prisoners, families and communities affected by incarceration, and herbalist roles in the abolition of these systems of oppression. There are more than 11.5 million people incarcerated worldwide, including a massive 2.2 million in the so-called United States. Most are completely excluded from herbalism yet many can find plants cracking through the concrete. These plants can bring hope, connection and health support to people experiencing the worst of state violence.

In this workshop we will explore the health impacts of incarceration, and look at herbal strategies to support people experiencing traumatic stress and PTSD. We will look at some practical uses of plants commonly found in prison yards and what practicing herbalism in prison can look like. The workshop explores ‘abolition’ as a framework and the role of herbalists within these movements.

There are more than 11.5 million people incarcerated worldwide, including a massive 2.2 million in the so-called United States. Most are completely excluded from herbalism yet many can find plants cracking through the concrete. These plants can bring hope, connection and health support to people experiencing the worst of state violence.

In this workshop we will explore the health impacts of incarceration, and look at herbal strategies to support people experiencing traumatic stress and PTSD. We will look at some practical uses of plants commonly found in prison yards and what practicing herbalism in prison can look like. The workshop explores ‘abolition’ as a framework and the role of herbalists within these movements.
