Holistic Women’s Sensitive Wisdom
Episode 18 season 5: Corinna Wood on Aligning with Nature
Have you fallen out of touch with the Earth? Listen in on this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, as host Elizabeth Cush welcomes Corinna Wood, a visionary teacher of women’s wisdom and a trailblazer in the holistic healing community, for a talk about sensitive, women-centered tools for inner growth and healing.
“Grounding into our needs is such a rooted way of being, and I think it is really important, especially today, and especially with highly sensitive women.”
Show Notes:
We live inside. We work inside. We spend our time on computers, phones and other devices. All that may seem to be convenient and comfortable, but it can also serve to cut us off from the natural world—and an important source of women’s wisdom. In this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, host Elizabeth “Biz” Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Maryland and Delaware, and soul support for highly sensitive women, welcomes Corrina Wood, founder of Red Moon Herbs and the Southeast Wise Women Herbal Conference. They talk about her Wise Woman Needs Wheel, a tool that maps human needs to natural cycles, how it can help inner growth and healing, and why it may be a particularly useful framework for highly sensitive women.
Listen and learn:
