Dear Emma, perhaps you have long ago been influenced by the medieval German Celtic Saint Hildegard of Bingen? If not she might become one of your favorite sources of inspiration for the things that interests you. A mystic and a prophet, a "wise woman of the woods" herbalist and nutritionalist, author of many works and treatises, composer of music that includes sonorous melodies and the Divine Feminine perspective, a leader of her community and of the Abess of her monastery for women, and also a determined influencer who successfully challenged and persuaded the Roman Catholic male hierarchy (including the pope). I'm not certain, but I doubt there are equivalent terms in Christianity for a Wisdom Dakini, bodhisattva, vajrayogini, and even the Tara Buddha . Either way, She is much more than a wise nun who was finally canonized & recognized as a Doctor of the church after 800 or so years of neglect.
i love braiding sweet grass too! i am involved with roxanne gay's book club and we just finished Lessons for Survival: Mothering Against “the Apocalypse” Book by Emily Raboteau. it reminds me a lot of braiding sweet grass, both are mothers and professors who talk about underserved populations, environmental issues and other important topics that are uncomfortable and usually overlooked 🙏💜
Thanks for all of these recommendations love! I have read Braiding Sweetgrass 4 times and it truly is my bible as well. It just makes so much sense. Also love your recommendation on sitting with the plant and getting to know it as a form of studying herbalism. I self taught myself herbalism and then took a course after just to find that getting to know the plant actually taught me just as much as studying. Both are needed
Great selections. I think you would really enjoy the work of Sharon Blackie - I recommend If Women Rose Rooted and The Enchanted Life by her. The Gift of Healing Herbs by Robin Rose Bennet is wonderful too
This is great! Thanks so much for sharing. I’ve added these to my list. Also, would you mind sharing what equipment you’re using to capture your voice clearly while also getting the nature in the background? This was super soothing!
Thank you so much for such great book recommendations! I originally came here in the hopes that you would share some recommendations on reproductive health; I would love if you would share some of your cycle syncing journey!💚
Just thrifted a copy of braiding sweet grass and couldn’t be more excited to start! Thank you for sharing 🤍
yay! let me know how you like it!!

You should add the "Medical Medium" books by Anthony Williams to your collection. They were a game changer for my path. 🤍 thanks for sharing!
