About the event
Learn to listen more intimately to the energetic and spiritual forces of the Earth.
And open yourself up to the spiritual medicine of the plants.
Do you have a desire to grow your intuitive listening body?
Do you know that the living world around you is speaking its sublte language to you, but you can’t quite decipher it?
In this day-long workshop, learn how to befriend, commune with, and learn from the plants. Each and every plant on this planet has a particular energetic frequency or spiritual blueprint. While some plant beings are more friendly, medicinal, or devoted to supporting humans, truly all of the plants can be our teachers.
This way of working with plants is more of a long-term investment. It’s not like reading a passage about the medicinal properties of a plant, that you can remember and recite. It requires putting time and effort into relationship. Really getting to know the plant, the unique qualities that plant offers, and building mutual respect and appreciation. It takes more time, but beauty and deep wisdom that is gained is well worth the time.
This relational approach to herbs and plant medicine is what allows for not only deeply knowing the medicine of a plant in your body, but also invites us into a wider conversation with our inter-relationship with the Earth and land. It is what puts us into direct conversation with the mysterious unknown. With the forces of the unseen that weave themselves through all that exists.
And when we truly begin to see, feel and know the sentience of these non-human kin, we begin to recognize our oneness. We recognize we all feed one another. We feel a sense of belonging and purpose. We feel a sense of awe, gratitude, and fierce protective love for our inter-species community.
This is what I truly believe can change the world.
In our immersive day together we will be outdoors, in community, as we learn how to navigate the subtle ways these beings communicate with us. The whole day will be ceremonial, as we honor both the plants as well as our intuitive capacities and inter-relation with the Earth’s inhabitants.
We will create a sacred container together to hold us in opening to the unseen realms. You’ll learn the ins and outs of plant spirit medicine and be guided in dropping into your heart and sensory body to listen to information from the subtle realms. We will have a community experience of sitting with a plant tincture together in order to experience perceiving the medicine in our bodies.
And then we will have ample time to stretch out with a personal plant guide, experience their energies and wisdom, and practice listening to their ways of communicating with us. We will gather together to share in circle to learn from, witness, and cultivate connection with one another. And finally, we will create ceremony to call upon the healing forces of the plants and Earth in order to create sacred space between us and the living web of life.
This will NOT be a workshop in herbal medicine making, harvesting, or intellectual learning about particular plant medicines. Although I'm happy to answer any questions that come up throughout the day.
This WILL be a workshop in developing intuition + the sensory body, learning to communicate with the plant kingdom as a whole, and being ceremonial healing space. This will be a workshop on the techniques of working with plant spirit medicine so that you can apply them to any and all plants you wish to work with in the future.
