Wise Herbal Ways

Do you want to find the Wise Woman within, reweaving your ancestral heritage?

This membership is about herbs, it is about reconnecting with the land to discover the ancestral knowledge, and plant communication, it is about reawakening the magic, raising the feminine energy, and it is about history.

Finding the wise woman through history. Topics covered: Woman as domestic healers and midwives Herbal knowledge passed orally, Church oversight, cunning folk, charmers, healers, witchcraft accusations, Rise of male professional medicine, regulation of midwifery, apothecaries vs folk healers, folklore and beliefs.

I hope to awaken and reconnect you with the Wise Woman within you to empower you to heal yourself, family, and community, to speak up for women’s rights.  I hope to also inspire you to question the colonial world we live in that has affected everything, including our beloved plants. Our history will include looking at plants and systems that have influenced us, so the Mediterranean, South West Asia, and North Africa will be particularly relevant.

Reclaiming the feminine, finding our voice, and reconnecting with the land and spirit are powerful, radical, and defiant acts. As we empower the feminine, we spin and weave a new world for our collective liberation.

It is an intellectual, embodied, and spiritual journey.

In this way, we are developing the Wise Herbal Ways of the Wise Woman.

“True spirituality is embodied, yes we are spirit but our work is here in this reality. We are here to live in our humanity, not to spiritually by-pass, close our eyes and collude with colonialism…..Traditional ancestral indigenous teachings tell us that we are on this earth to honour the collective, to speak out against injustice and violence. This is an embodied form of love. Call your spirit back from the colonial, capitalist, patriarchy. Decolonise your spiritual practices, root into the earth, and your healed ancestors” Dr Rosales Meza
