Juliette of the Herbs

I love reading blogs for inspiration and ideas.  I recently found this amazing movie through one of my favorite blogs.  The movie, Juliette of the Herbs, is a fascinating portrait of Juliette de Bairacli Levy.  According to the movie synopsis Juliette is a "herbalist, author, breeder of Afghan hounds, friend of the Gypsies, traveler in search of herbal wisdom and pioneer of holistic veterinary medicine. For more than 70 years Juliette lived with the Gypsies, nomads and peasants of the world, learning the healing arts from these people who live close to nature, and learning from nature herself. Juliette’s life story is as colourful and exciting as her tremendous wealth of herbal knowledge. Filmed on location in Greece, Spain, France, Portugal, Switzerland, England and America, and interwoven with Juliette’s vast collection of archival photographs, together with scenes of Gypsies dancing and Bedouins with their herds, Juliette of the Herbs is an inspiring portrait of a remarkable woman."


Please leave a comment and share your thoughts about the movie and this amazing woman.
