Beth Weinstein: Nettle Dieta: Plant Spirit Immersion + Astrology-guided Resilience for a New Era, Episode 238, Medicine For These Times Podcast
In this episode, Beth shares the details of the Nettle Dieta, a three-week pay-what-you-wish plant spirit immersion she is co-hosting with master herbalist Sam Perry and astrologer Susan DeRyder.
Recorded from her outdoor living room in Costa Rica, Beth shares the traditional roots of plant dietas from Peruvian mestizo vegetalismo lineages and how this “soft dieta” format brings that practice into everyday life. She explores why stinging nettle was chosen as the guide plant for this particular moment in history, touching on the powerful astrological transits of 2026 and what it means to build resilience, strength, and bright boundaries as we enter a new paradigm.
