Katie Hanus is a mother and herbalist who some may say is not meant for our current modern cookie-cutter rushed world. She’s the founder of The Handmade Life which offers herbal traditions, small-batch goods, consultations, and workshops. She shares her wisdom with us all today and on her blog, The Nature Wheel where she discusses her suburban homesteading and her two daughters’ homeschool experiences with nature, food, ritual, and ceremony. Her connection with the natural world has played a key role in her most beloved life experiences. Both the Handmade Life and The Nature Wheel were born from a desire to share the abundance of joy and healing the natural world offers. Katie loves helping empower people as they build or refine their own unique paths to thrive.
Katie has trained to date with Sacred Journey School of Herbalism in Austin, Texas and with The Herbal Medics Academy in San Antonio, Texas with an emphasis on empowering healthy lifestyles in women and children. She’s been supporting her own family’s complex health, learning, and developmental needs for the past fourteen years through a variety of modalities and therapies. She holds certificates in permaculture design and nature-based coaching.
She practices sit spot, a sense meditation where you sit outside every day in the same spot and notice nature. It can be as little as five minutes a day and it has proven to be a true gateway to her emotional and mental well-being. Katie reminds us to notice, incorporate, and be grateful for the natural world and bring it into our homes and our everyday lives.
