About the Event
Partnering with the Plants with Rachel Weitz
“In some Native languages the term for plants translates to those who take care of us.”
― Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants
This women's class will gather to engage respectful, nourishing, and collaborative relationships with our Plant Elders. We will listen in embodied presence to what the plants would like to show us. These wise ones have the long view and know deeply about change, and they want to support us as their younger kin. Partnering with the plants in a good relationship helps us navigate the changing times we are living in with more grace, wisdom, perspective, and can bring deep healing. The age-old sacred relationship between plants and humans allows us to be in touch with the divine wisdom all around and within us. These monthly meetings will be an anchor and a touchstone to be able to ground and attune to inner wisdom and the web of life in order to support our everyday lives as we surf the ever changing landscape. In this class series, we explore practices that cultivate relationships with the plant kin. Experience the unique and exquisite presence of each plant that goes beyond what has been written. From the foundation of an authentic relationship, we will engage the possibility for healing, transformation and direct revelation. This course is for women who enjoy being outside with the plants, connecting with community, and who have a desire to be in personal relationship with the plant world. Herbal tea, plant infused snacks, and a medicinal treat will be provided and will deepen our embodied experience of the plants. Tara Lanich-Labrie of The Medicine Circle (themedicinecircle.com) will be blessing us with her magic and sharing plant inspirited snacks.
