Do have a natural affinity toward the green world of plants? The Wise Woman’s knowledge of the vegetal world has been a Priest/ess specialty for millennia for healing and optimal health, whose wisdom comes directly from our Mother Gaia.

When working with customers and private clients, her goal is to find the partnership between plants and people to bring about physical, mental and emotional balance, working to uncover root causes for profound, long-lasting change.

In our hour together on Community Luminaries, Cheryl will be giving us a taste of her accrued wisdom as a Wise Woman, through the lens of how an Herbalist sees the world. One of the herbs she will be focusing on will be stinging nettle in its myth, folklore and medicine. Please come with your questions and experiences to share about this powerful healing specialty of the Wise Woman archetype!
