The Goddess In The Garden: How To Grow Three Herbs For Beauty & Healing

In this episode, I invite you into the garden with me to explore what I call “the goddess in the garden”—a reflection on how growing herbs can be a deeply healing and empowering practice. I share my love for three special herbs: rose, calendula (marigold), and lady’s mantle, and how each one supports both beauty and wellness, inside and out.We’ll talk about what I see as the goddess rebellion—a return to the earth, to simplicity, and to meaningful community connections. I also touch on the science behind gardening and mental health, and how even tending a few pots on a windowsill can bring peace and purpose to your day.Whether you’re a lifelong gardener or just curious about growing your own herbs, I hope this episode leaves you feeling inspired to connect more deeply with nature, your own inner wisdom, and the healing beauty of the plants around you.In this episode, I talk about:Gardening as a form of self-care and spiritual connectionWhy rose is one of my favorite herbs for emotional and skin healingThe many uses of calendula for beauty and first aidThe folklore and feminine magic of lady’s mantleHow growing herbs can support mental health and reduce stressEasy ways to start gardening, even with limited spaceResources:Series Playlist -  "From Soil to Spirit"  - watch here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtGmbdK5tigdaoI6mlsJdkzFSiJxrt7Am&feature=sharedSeries Playlist  - "The Goddess, Herbalism, and Sacred Symbols" - watch here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtGmbdK5tigd379v87qNELJjygFWn1Dp5&feature=sharedBook, "Benedictaria: The Blessing Way of Southern Italian Folk Medicine" by Gail Faith Edwards - https://blessedmaineherbs.com/products/pre-order-benedicaria-the-blessing-way-of-southern-italian-folk-medicineOrganic Herb Source: Strictly Medicinal Seeds (and Live Plants!) - https://strictlymedicinalseeds.com/———— MY ONLINE COURSES 🌱🌝 Roots & Spheres Class: https://bit.ly/RootsAndSpheres  🌿Herbal Foundations Apprenticeship: https://bit.ly/HerbalProgram
