How can we more deeply connect with plants and what can this mean in our lives?
Join author and plant whisperer Rachel Corby in a conversation about growing your connection with plants with moderator Paul Moss, executive director of The Plant Initiative.
Learn about a journey of plant enchantment, where recognition of those other beings as animate, en-spirited and intelligent, opens the door to a whole new way of being. Communicating with plants can help change everything, influencing how we behave and enriching our lives with intimacy and meaning.
There will be time for questions from the audience following the discussion. This free program will be livestreamed with a link to be sent to participants before the event and will also be recorded and available for viewing online afterwards.
About Rachel Corby
Rachel Corby is an author, personal rewilding coach, plant whisperer and sacred plant medicine mentor, based in the west of England. Rachel first began to hear the whispers of plants while completing research for her Geography degree, in a remote Scottish valley during the early 1990’s. She followed their call across five continents, learning in each place from the peoples of those lands, but also directly from the plants, mushrooms and the land herself. Her work is entirely experiential, constantly guided and nudged by direct communication with Gaia, by her plant and fungal allies.
Rachel is the author of four books including Rewild Yourself: Becoming Nature and most recently Rewilding & The Art of Plant Whispering. In addition she has contributed chapters to four further books and been published in various magazines and journals in the UK and beyond. Rachel has been interviewed on multiple UK based radio stations, including a regular slot on BBC radio as “Gloucestershire’s Medicine Woman”. She has spoken at various online events including Toward a New Way of Being with Plants Conference, Humanity Rising and Rise Up Rooted. Rachel has also been featured on numerous podcasts including Becoming Nature, ONE (Organisation of Nature Evolutionaries) and The Lumieres Podcast.
Rachel is an advocate for regenerating and reviving interest in the indigenous plant medicine of her homeland, the UK. In summertime she holds ceremonies and wild medicine walks at various UK festivals, including Wilderness and Medicine, to further this aim. Rachel hosts online and in-person events, including indigenous plant ceremonies, workshops encouraging the direct communication with our more-than-human kin and personal rewilding apprenticeships.
