Letter to Susun, Spring 2002
By being who you are, it gives other women "permission" to live and be beautiful in their own way. Thank you. Having recently read your books and seen your metapause video, I am blown away. Because all the quiet but powerful thoughts, beliefs, feelings etc that I have had for years are suddenly validated as real and not "on the fringes".

AT 50 my menopause stage now is one of isolation bordering on meltdown. Tho there are rough spots, it is the best, most promising time of my life. It is so liberating to know that what I have been going through is not odd. I have
no one I can speak to about any of this, so finding out about your work has been a divine gift and loving proof that the universe has many ways of nurturing us. We can trust in provision.

Many thanks, you are a beautiful person. You are a testimonial to the fact that women at our age can be young, healthy, beautiful and alive looking and being. The power contained in your work of art - yourself- is awesome!

Love, sunshine moondust and starlit skies

"Green sources of calcium are the best. Nourishing herbs and garden weeds are far richer in minerals than ordinary greens, which are already exceptional sources of nutrients...But calcium from green sources alone is not enough. We need calcium from white sources as well. Add a quart of yogurt a week to your diet if you want really healthy bones." pp.28-29

LISTEN TO SUSUN WEED'S RADIO SHOW

The Wise Woman Tradition encourages us to work towards good health from the inside out. And it helps us to remember that our healing choices influence not only ourselves but the entire planet.

Spirit and Practice of the Wise Woman Tradition

The Goddess is Alive in Every Woman

The Wise Woman Tradition is a Spiral

Having just read your article regarding the differences between the Scientific, Heroic and Wise Woman healing traditions, I suddenly understand something more about myself. I've often adhered to the thinking of the heroic tradition, blaming myself, my thoughts, feeling myself pathetic for not rising above mere physical illness. But my heart always told me something different. It is the reason why I love to nourish my family, spend time simply touching the plants in my herb garden, or breathing in the night air. Health is so much more than an absence of disease. I feel as if you've just given me permission to live as my heart tells me to. Thank you Susun. ~ Crystal

Seaweed is an everyday miracle.
The benefits of including seaweed's optimum nourishment into your daily diet are extensive: increased longevity, enhanced immune functioning, revitalization of the cardiovascular, endocrine, digestive, and nervous systems, and relief from minor aches and pains. Health benefits from a wise woman alliance with seaweed include glossier hair, more luminous skin, less digestive distress, renewed energy and stamina, rekindled sexual desires, and reawakened delight in life
.

"Seaweed helps remove heavy metals and radioactive isotopes; I eat it as a vegetable once a week or more. Learn about KELP from Ryan Drum, professional wildcrafter, herbal educator. Discover Dulse (Palmaria Palmata) featured by Mendocino Sea Vegetable Company." Susun Weed


"I am grateful for eating weeds, and I love cooking at the Wise Woman Center because the plants are truly loved and honored; I know we taste it in the food made from them. Food and eating are of supreme importance to our health on every level, and to the health of our cultures and our planet." ~ Marie Summerwood

"Making your own medicines saves you money if you follow the Wise Woman Tradition of using local herbs, free for the taking. Even one day's work in field, forest, and kitchen can provide you with many years' worth of medicines. When you make your own, you know for sure what's in it, where it came from, when and how it was harvested, and how fresh and potent it is." p. 121, Herbal Pharmacy

LOVE LETTERS

Dear Susun,

I had the honor of speaking to you a few weeks ago when I ordered Juliette de Bariacli Levy's books. I have read them and feel like I am seeing something I must understand, but it is behind a glass window that I can't move through. When I learn a language different from my original language, I learn very quickly, when I am in the environment and surrounded by experience in that new language. I learn very little from books unless they are stories. I want to know everything and learn everything I can from you.

I am like a child. I am open to learning all I need to know. … It is my hope that I can learn as much from you as I can for the remainder of my life.

With love and respect, Cate

"Now the time has come for us to recognize this invisible thread woven into our lives, this common thread that runs from our earliest foremothers to us, this thread of love and nurturance that can lead us out of the maze of planetary destruction, war and self-hatred." Susun Weed

New Zealander Penny Pollard:
" The Wise Woman Center is a place of strength and power. Its essence is wild. Its energy is old. In this place there is a meeting of the worlds, of this there is no doubt. The green guardians are ever vigilant. In the haze of twilight dawn they show their faces. This is a sacred space, a place of honoring and learning that draws out each one’s wisdom, weaves and spins it with the winds of the Ancients. Fire dances in the night sky. A frog echoes in the dark. This land brings you home to your self.
"
