Rekindling Our Relationship With Plants

There comes a moment, often subtle, when we realise that the world has grown too loud and the body begins to whisper for something older, softer, and true. Herbs have a way of meeting us in that moment. They invite us back into relationship with the earth, with our intuition, and with the parts of ourselves we silenced to fit a world that forgot how to listen.

Working with herbs can change your life not because they “fix” you, but because they remind you that you were never disconnected in the first place. Every cup of tea, every tincture drop, every oil pressed into the skin is an act of remembering that healing can be simple, that slowness is medicine, and that nature still speaks when you’re quiet enough to hear her.

Understanding the real meaning of a “Witch”

For generations, the word witch was twisted into something dark or dangerous. But historically, a witch was simply a person, often a woman, who understood plants, cycles, intuition, and the invisible threads that connect life. She was the midwife, the herbalist, the wise one of the village. Her knowledge was feared, not because it was harmful, but because it was powerful.

To reclaim the word witch is not to align with anything evil, but it is to reclaim sovereignty, intuition, and the right to live in harmony with nature. It is to stand in the lineage of those who honoured plants not as commodities, but as companions. It is to remember that being connected, attuned, and earth-rooted.

The Journey Home

Herbalism isn’t about learning everything at once. It’s a gentle journey of remembering. You start with one plant, one ritual, one moment of presence. And slowly, your life shifts. You become more attuned to your body, your emotions, your rhythms. You begin to trust your inner knowing again. You feel held. Supported. Part of something ancient and wise.

Herbs don’t just change your health- they change your relationship with yourself. They show you that healing can be a partnership, not a battle. They remind you that nature has always desired to walk beside you. And in that remembering, life becomes richer, softer, and more meaningful.
