Dr. Nicole Apelian is an herbalist, a mother, a survival skills instructor, and a biologist.
She graduated with a degree in Biology from McGill University in Canada and has her Master's degree in Ecology from the University of Oregon.
She earned her Doctorate through Prescott College while working as an anthropologist and ethnobotanist in Botswana.
An unexpected diagnosis of MS in 2000 led Nicole to apply her research skills towards her own personal wellness.
She focused on a healthy living strategy, including deep nature connection and gratitude practices.
Through changes in her lifestyle, and using her own remedies, Nicole went from bedridden to being fully alive and from surviving to thriving.
And in 2015 she was among the first women to be selected for the History Channel's TV show Alone.
She then went on to survive for 57 days straight alone in the wild with little more than the plants that she found there.
She believes that there are many more people who need to find their own remedy.
This became her life's mission and the main reason for writing this book.
In it she poured over 28 years of plant knowledge and her first-hand experiences of making her own poultices, tinctures, decoctions, salves, syrups, infused oils, and other herbal remedies.
