In the past, the term “witch” was used to refer to female healers. They were the ones who stayed behind, caring for the sick using natural remedies. This is in stark contrast to male healers, who used harsher methods to tend to the wounded on the battlefield. It is through herbalism that Maia Toll began to explore the witch archetype.
As she studied herbs and magic, Maia found herself looking to escape her earthly vessel. She never felt comfortable in her own skin, and was often frustrated by her body. Her attempts to flee brought about a revelation: an exploration that’s disconnected from the body is insanity. By fully integrating the body and soul, Maia felt a stronger connection to the mystic.
Maia is the award-winning author of the best selling Wild Wisdom Series which has inspired readers worldwide to explore their human nature through the magical lens of the natural world.
Her latest book is The Night School, which explores the self through the lens of philosophy, divination, and astrology. She also owns an herb shop called Herbiary, with locations in Asheville, Philadelphia, and online.
