Uncover the healing power and inspiring lessons of the hive
About the Book
Bees inspire a joy that most people could use more of these days - simply observing them at work is truly uplifting. In The Wisdom of Honeybees, author, teacher, and beekeeper Shonagh Home encourages you to slow down and pay attention to what the bees can teach us on a spiritual level.
Begin by finding out about the remarkable lives and social structure of Apis mellifera, the western or European honeybee, which is the most well-known honey-producing bee species. Then move on to discover the rich and multilayered symbolism of the honeybees and the roles they have played in myth, religion, and society through the ages as emblems of cooperation, industry, dedication, and more.
Explore a spiritual approach to communicating with these extraordinary creatures with practices and meditation that don’t require you to keep a hive, and learn how to address any fears you may have about the bees. Find out, too, how you can form a heartfelt relationship with them - from creating a thoughtfully planned bee-friendly garden to getting to grips with a natural and holistic approach to beekeeping, for those who want to embrace bee stewardship and the emotional healing it can bring.
Finally, learn about hive medicine, or “apitherapy”, which is the ancient practice of treating ailments with products of the hive, including honey, propolis, bee pollen, bee venom, and beeswax - all incredible substances with numerous medicinal and healing applications.
