I’m honored to welcome you to this space!

My name is Damiana. I’m a mixed woman of color, daughter, sister, caregiver, community member, survivor, first generation immigrant. I was born and raised in Great Tenochtitlan aka Mexico CIty to a large beautiful family, inheriting the traditions of both my mother’s and father’s lineages. Currently living as a guest in Chumash land with my partner and 2 dogs, my practice blends together my Mexican roots, mixed upbringing, food as medicine, Curanderismo studies, western herbal training and mutual aid. 

Thank you so much for supporting the growth of La Luneria in reciprocity. I’m excited to share with you my practice and what I carry in a way that serves you and your communities. I started my plant path in my grandmothers’ gardens and kitchens, enjoying what they grew and fed us. I took it for granted for many years, thinking it was just the way we all lived. As a young adult I started getting involved in urban agriculture and that really sparked a passion for herbalism and reclamation of our old ways. I will be sharing about ancestral foods and celebrations, diy remedies, savory and sweet recipes, self care ideas, emotional + physical + spiritual herbal knowledge and mutual aid experiences. All rooted in relation to other human and more than human beings.

Thank you so much for joining me!

In love and prayer,
Damiana
