The fight to get plants legalised for use in healing steps up a gear today.

Somerset West Healer Monica Cromhout was arrested in December 2014 charged with dispensing psilocybin, a mushroom extract, in a spiritual ritual she was conducting at her home.

While the extract is illegal - Cromhout had been conducting SOMA events – where the extract is consumed as part of a spiritual ceremony - at her home for some time.

For some time the 70 year old has been waging a fight to get the natural plants recognised for their healing properties. It continues the debate around the use of drugs for medical or spiritual purposes instead of just for recreational purposes.

She now faces a 15 year jail sentence.

Cromhout only spent 2 nights in jail before being released on bail. To help others in the predicament, she posted this article on her Facebook.

Watch Monica Cromhout talking about Sacred Mushrooms, filmed at the Linder Auditorium as part of the Khanyisa Psychoactive Plant Conference on Sat 20th October 2013..

Haha yeah "plants" instead of something "fungus" related...anyway not enough people understand that "it's just a plant" or "they're just plants" is very meaningful or significant when it comes to especially legality. Well, I am an amateur horticulturist and getting us to think of that as not important is the successful result of propaganda/programming/brainwashing.

She was in trouble for giving mushrooms, not plants.
The arrest brought up the issue of other entheogens.
