ReConnect with Plant Wisdom

Looking through the results of my Spirit Wild Plant quiz over the last seven months, I discovered an unexpected trend. And I think it has to do with helping us through these stressful times we are in.Cattail and Chickweed have been appearing consistently. Could this be kin's way of helping humans tap back into their wildness, resilience, and freedom? It feels like they really want us to learn the importance of navigating turbulent times with emotional maturity, recognizing and acknowledging emotions rather than suppressing them.In this episode, we talk about how to express strong emotions in a healthy and constructive manner, and I invite you to explore the energies of Cattail and Chickweed to better understand the flow between emotions, intellect, and instinct.Topics Covered about stressful times➡️Wild Plants, and their roles in helping humans➡️Cattail's connection to emotions➡️Trusting your instincts, even when emotional|➡️Chickweed's lessons in trusting intuition➡️How these Wild Plants enhance your abilitiesExpanded Show HERE☝🏽ReConnect with Plant Wisdom podcast Ancient and modern knowledge from biology to spirituality about the wondrous ways plants help you lead a Naturally Conscious life.

This is such a good episode with my good friend, Fontaine Burnett. We talk about the transcending cultural and linguistic barriers to embody who you are. Beyond that, what is created when you get out of your own way, and let musicality flow through you.There are so many parallels between how Fontaine creates relationship with music and I how I work with my inner plantness: tapping into Cosmic and Earth consciousnesses. We get into the details of working with energies and entities as a creative process.Fontaine Burnett was born into a family of musicians and music lovers. It was very clear early in his life what he was put in this world to do…to be a conduit for universal creative energy. His career as a musician has brought him to stages and studios in nearly every corner of the world with many highly renowned and famous collaborators,  but it is his nearly supernatural musical intuition that sets him apart from most musicians. The instrument Fontaine plays is an Array Mbira instrument.Topics Covered about getting out of the way➡️ Presence, allowing, and embracing to unlock the transformative power of otherkin wisdom➡️ Music as a deep connection to to universal consciousness➡️ Working with plants and entities for spiritual growth and understanding➡️ Learning when to be still, when to lead, when to collaborateResources Mentioned About Fontaine Burnett Experience a Plant Music Healing session Get a Botanical Tarot Card reading Bring your Inner Music into the WorldExpanded Show HERE☝🏽ReConnect with Plant Wisdom podcast Ancient and modern knowledge from biology to spirituality about the wondrous ways plants help you lead a Naturally Conscious life.

Bear with me on this one; it is not always easy to put what the plants have taught me into human words, especially when we are taking about the evolution of Homo sapiens!In this episode, I challenge many of the societal norms and expectations we have around what makes us human. What exactly is the human species and why are sapiens the only ones left? Could it be that humanity actively prevents the emergence of species differentiation?We know that embracing diversity is positive, and yet we still look at neurodiversity and diversely-abled people as something to "fix". Instead, how much more freedom will you feel to truly be yourself when you see differences as capabilities instead of deficiencies?Topics Covered about Homo Sapiens Evolution of human species and multiple species with genus Homo Is it possible that what we are labeling handicaps are actually emerging capabilities? Society fears what is different, so it tries to eliminate it Recognizing neurodivergence as expanded abilities Working with plant partners to understand species differentiationResources Mentioned Why science thinks Homo sapiens become the last human species Scientists Identify Cryptic New Species of Tiger Cat ReConnect with the Plant Kingdom for expanded abilities Evolve your capabilities and embody your differences with mentorshipExpanded Show Notes HERE☝🏽ReConnect with Plant Wisdom podcast Ancient and modern knowledge from biology to spirituality about the wondrous ways plants help you lead a Naturally Conscious life.
