testimonial
'Hat skipped the stuff you can 'get online' and went straight to deep insights on why things happen in my life the way they do, and what a difference it's made to know it!Their teachings were very intuitive and generously given - the information shared has been so helpful already.Working with Hat has improved my relationships and settled me into my soul's path with more confidence - more so than any other course or self-development I have done.As well as being an expert in their field I believe Hat is a gifted seer - I thoroughly recommend working with them. Working with Hat is one of the most transformative things I've ever done.'-Karen Mackelvie

Hat has devoted their life to coming back into right relationship with the natural world, and teaching others about the magic that unfolds when we open ourselves to commune with the spirits of plants.Drawing mostly from their native Celtic traditions, as well as being influenced by humankind's relationships with plants across our planet, Hat's practice invites a remembering of the old ways, to come back to our true humanity in a world wracked with violence and suffering.

Central to Hat's work is the belief that herbalism is a radical, anti-capitalist, political practice.They are passionate about providing support that rejects the medical industrial system, and uplifts the marginalised folk who need it most.Healthcare is a sovereign birthright for everyone, and reclaiming your right to wellness should NEVER be a luxury.Datura Astrobotanics was created as a small but mighty gesture for helping that dream to be a reality for more people in a world determined to keep us sick.
