005. Jacqui Lalita on Divine Feminine, Rewilding, and Liberating the Body

Sep 25, 2020

Jacqui Lalita, the founder of the Wild Wisdom School of Earth Medicine & Embodiment, has been helping women connect with the divine feminine through ancient dance traditions, plant medicine and poetry for decades. In this episode, she talks about how reconnecting with nature helps you get back to the proverbial garden, establish grace and empowerment, and see how your body has a capacity to heal itself. Giddy about how the earth has gifted us with medicinal plants, Jacqui shares some of her favorites, such as reishi, adaptogens like ashwagandha, tulsi and eleuthero, as well as nervines like milky oats and lemon balm. 

In this interview, we discuss:

• Why women are in need of rewilding today
• The difference between sexuality and sensuality
• How the practice of yoga can be a bridge to dancing
• How an meeting with David Wolfe led her to becoming a chocolatier
• Jacqui’s belly dance DVD, poetry books and courses offered
