Healing Trees and Inspiring People

We’ve all heard the phrase “it’s like I’m talking to a wall.” Well, how about talking to a tree? No, really, why don’t we talk to trees?

Dr. Jim Conroy, the bonafied Tree Whisper uses a holistic healing system called Green Centrics to facilitate and promote the continual health of plants and trees. He discovered that three or more stressors can cause the decline of a tree and his natural techniques are guaranteed to heal any suffering bark.

“When you put your hands on a tree, you probably feel the bark,” he said on his site. “When I touch a tree, sure, I feel the bark but I also feel the tree's Life Force or Growth Energy flowing through it.”

From an early age, Conroy has loved and studied plant life. He took that love and turned it into a major at Delaware Valley College. A Bachelor of Science in Horticulture wasn’t enough for the ambitious tree-lover. He went on to receive a Ph.D. in Botany and Plant Pathology from Purdue University. He has been promoting plant and tree health in research and marketing for over 25 years. He explained that while he worked at a chemical company, he would walk through fields of crops and knew that the science and marketing departments were missing something. He wondered why his team could not heal the suffering plant life he observed. Then he realized he had to think outside of the box and attended an introductory talk hosted by the founder of a holistic healing system designed for humans.

Though skeptical of the techniques at first, Conroy left the talk with a new sense of how to help plants over a long period of time instead of just applying short-term treatments to them.

Now, Dr. Conroy has teamed up with the founder of the Institute for Cooperation with Nature, Basia Alexander, to teach a workshop about the leading methods of tree whispering and, according to eomega.com, “to experience the profound life force growth energies, nature spirit intelligence, and wisdom.”

So, before you decide to cut down that dying tree in your backyard, you might try chit-chatting with it. It may tell you something.
