“It can be scary sometimes to be listening to something other than humans and be following what they have to say. It brings you into the realm of uncertainty. Into the unknown that people are so afraid of. Like it or not we are in that place so deeply right now. So, if not now, when?” – Liz Neves

Did you know that your house plants, kitchen herbs, weeds outside your house, and vegetation that surrounds your community have spirits just like us? Accessing plant wisdom can be a potent part of your healing journey, whether you are using their divine intelligence to heal your physical body or learning to develop your intuition.

On this episode of Enlightenedhood with Leena Lemos, Herbalist and earth-based spirituality educator Liz Neves discusses the wisdom of plants and how we can connect to their spirits to help heal and develop our intuition. Liz also shares what may be blocking you from connecting with plants, what nourishing herbs you can incorporate into your wellness as well as the top plant that usually calls out to people when they begin going deeper into the intelligence of Mother Earth.
