As the son of a medical herbalist, Dylan has been exposed to the healing qualities of herbs since early adolescence. He has spent over 30 years researching, teaching and writing about the metaphysical basis of the European herbal tradition.
Parallel to his herbal work, Dylan is also a very experienced palm reader. In 1990, his book The Hand Reveals: A complete guide to the European Cheiromantical Tradition, was published. He was also invited to contribute a section on palm reading to the Oxford Companion to the Body, published by Oxford University Press.
