Maia Toll

Maia Toll is the author of the best selling and award-winning Wild Wisdom Series, The Night School, and Letting Magic In. With over a half-a-million copies in print, Maia's books have inspired a line of oracle decks, journals, puzzles, calendars, and even a temporary tattoo book. The seeds for Maia's books were planted when she apprenticed with a traditional healer in Ireland where she spent extensive time studying the growing cycles of plants, the alchemy of medicine making, and the psycho-spiritual aspects of healing. These experiences reawakened an interest in philosophy and the history of mysticism which had been a large part of Maia’s academic studies at The University of Michigan and New York University. Maia’s books build on this foundation, eloquently translating patterns and metaphors from the natural world to help modern seekers understand and grow within their own lives. She co-owns an herb shop, called Herbiary, with locations in Asheville, Philadelphia, and online. Maia lives in Asheville, NC with her partner and three ridiculously spoiled dogs.
