Soul: Nettles helps us to re-wire our own personal grid with self-empowerment and authentic power that honors the love of our Soul. Nettles helps us to walk through the world with an acknowledgment of the present and acknowledgment of the great Mother Earth. This allows us to see and connect with our inner world and see what we are mirroring in our lives through repeat patterns that are from old resentments and old belief systems. As we honor what we are holding from our past, we can choose to not let it go, we can honor that we are not allowing the evolution of the Soul. Nettles offers us the strength and vitality to connect with the strength and compassion of our Soul and recognize what we must detoxify from within to create the life we want in our outer world.
