    Yay! My three favourite witches are back with another episode.
    I think witches feel particularly drawn to nature because there is so much magick in it-from thunderstorms to the unfurling of a Silver fern's frond, taking the time to connect to, appreciate and learn from nature is not only rewarding and beneficial, but hugely inspirational to our craft too.

    Growing up I was always barefoot unless it was mandatory to wear shoes like school or stores. I still at 58 years go barefoot except when shoes are required. The first part of my day I’m walking in the grass and grounding with the earth and it is the last thing I do at night before bed and I have foraged herbs from the age of 13 for medicinal use. I have always just loved the feeling I get from connecting with nature ❤

      Same here, I'm always bare foot as much as I can, there is something special about feeling the earth under your feet. I'm normally in my garden at God knows what o'clock before I go to bed walking around in my garden or out in the meadow out front of my little bungalow, it feels like your releasing all the stress of the day and letting the earth take care of it all. God knows what the neighbours must think of me seeing me flouncing around my nighty 😂

    100% Nature was my gateway into witchcraft. I spent countless hours among the trees and creeks growing up, and find myself still feeling most at home in the woodlands or on a quiet beach.

    Kiwi Witch here! (Your pronunciations are correct btw!)
    I myself am an introvert but growing up all I wanted to do was go outside and go on wild adventures and even going back home for awhile, you cannot deny the pull of the land. There's something about it that calls to people eventually.
    Currently in Australia and know I have found a family of Witches here at last ^_^
    Keep doing what you do!

    Loved this episode, I've just clicked to restart it so I can thoroughly take it in :)
    My altar space has been packed up since February as my house has been getting rewired, I've been struggling to connect to my practice through this time, and this episode has made me remember that even though I'm a hearth witch, there's plenty of nature outside that I can go and connect to in the mean time :) I'm also inspired to go back to my plans for my garden, and add some more species to the list for purposes other than eating fruit and veg :) will do my best to use native plants :)

    There was a great program on BBC I-player a while ago (2018 i think) with Judi Dench around communing trees called "my passion for trees" , as she has a passion for them and has many in her garden as memorials to lost friends and family. And they set up with a tree expert - and listened to the trunks of the tree' s through special headphones and almost like a stethascope instrument it was amazing the sounds and also the connections between them - including how they help to heal each other.

    Love love love this episode. I am a true green witch and love anything nature based, foraging, making my own tinctures etc. It truly is the basis for my practice. Life is so busy and we can miss so much that is happening right under our noses in nature. Being mindful and following the seasons really helps to ground me and reassure me x

    This podcast episode just reminded me how much I want to learn how to contribute to community/native gardens and foraging! 💚In hindsight, it really makes sense that I would be drawn to hedge/green witchery... especially with how often I would collect leaves, acorns, seeds, shells, and more well into adulthood. 😁

    When the pandemic started and I was locked at home I started crocheting and walking in my local woods and parks collecting twigs, leafs, flowers and other gifts of nature. I started making decorations from them and I think that is when I understood something that I probably knew all the time - I'm a witch.

    hello! i just found your podcast recently and wanted to say that it's been so good for me. i had your "introduction to witchcraft: our stories" episode playing in my ear to help me through a nerve-wracking dental procedure. since then, i've gotten into the routine of listening on my way to and from work, and not only am i learning a lot from the three of you (and getting some good laughs at the humor), but i'm getting more in tune with my craft and spirituality. thank you so much for sharing your insights and making it accessible to us on UA-cam. ❤

    As to the final topic, when I moved from the NE of the US, to the south, it took me years to adjust. I have always relished the winter downtime. Reflect, recharge and planning time. I am an avid gardener. In the south, you barely get a good nap in before you are back in the busy time.

    Thank you! That's so much true, that nature is crucial for our body, mind and soul health. And for our awakening as wild women and witches.
    It would be interesting to listen to your views on ecological approach and lifestyle in whichcraft, sustainability, zero waste and so on.
