Life doesn't always need to look as magical as this Norwegian Village does... but the fact remains, there are treasures all around if you look around with grateful eyes.

In her work, Eeva Maria emphasizes our connection with nature. Her worldview could be described a bit animistic and based on Finno-Ugric shamanistic traditions. She uses herbalism, drumming journeys, and research of folklore and mysticism to support her work. She has authored two books in Finnish that draw from folklore, herbalism, depth psychology, and traditional skills and crafts.

Eeva Maria’s new course Discover the Power of the Wild North Within You is based on Finnish mythology about three archetypal animals of our nature. Each of the animals have a connection with a female figure or goddess in the folklore, so both the goddess and the totem animal are introduced in each of the three chapters.

In this course, Eeva Maria interprets the mythology for today: what can you learn from these stories and perspectives that’s applicable in your life, now. The course offers insights, knowledge, exercises, and prompts for introspection. Welcome to explore!

We offer this course as inspiration for you to create your own views and applications of these myths. Can’t wait for you to experience this journey. We’re excited for what you might discover that’s special to you 💙

Storytime! Why I moved back to Finland from the US

Storytime! Why I moved back to Finland from the US (My best attempt at explaining it)

🦋 By Nordic Wisdom co-founder Bhakti:

I used to live in the US for 10 years. Towards the end, small things started piling up that made me miss Finland more and more. Maybe they were strange things? I missed ample sidewalks and easy strolls to the grocery store and not having to drive everywhere. I missed being able to go to any forest on a whim and it being completely normal… Bringing a bucket and picking blueberries. I missed going to a properly hot sauna and jumping into a cool lake after. I missed bustling city centers with cafes, parks, and people. I missed appreciation for time off and I missed literal time off. I was turning into a workaholic for no reason. American people are friendly and enchanting, and I mean it, but the culture felt unfriendly somehow. Competitive and uncompassionate compared to the atmosphere I grew up with in Finland. I couldn’t ignore it…

To be poetic, I began feeling the call of the north. Perhaps melodramatically and totally national-romantically, I read the Kalevala in an attempt to feel connected to my roots, to any roots perhaps. It was a strange longing for both wilder and freer living *and* for a society that’s more structured and equal in its approach.

I think it’s a Nordic thing.

We have huge respect and love for nature that’s instilled in us since we’re babies. The Nordic way of being is passed down, it’s the way of life, it’s normal: self-care is built in. And care for others is, as well. Groundedness and connection to nature are, to me, the greatest gifts of our culture and wisdom.

Sometimes I miss my second home, the US, and what I most miss about it are the moments I was swept off my feet by its magical nature. And it happened all the time: the incredible mountains, the red desert that hides secret life, prairies and the scent of sage, jungle-like forests with ancient redwood and ferns taller than me, and the warm, powerful ocean waves forever crashing at the shores.

The most connection I feel there, too, is with nature. That tells me something 💙

True words from Nordic Wisdom creator Katja Frange

True words from Nordic Wisdom creator Katja Frange:

"By being truthful, your spirit and vitality is set free and your energy isn’t worn thin by hiding away or covering up.

Please be responsible with your free, powerful words.

You can also speak for those who can’t do it for themselves.

Untamed truthfulness is clear and matter-of-fact, boundary-setting, and loving. You can express truth without sentimentality or judgment.

Trust it."

💙
