This is a course for those of you who want to connect more with herbs... but without hurry, one at a time, with spaces to integrate your learning, leaning into your own senses & experience.
Plant Allies; 13 Moons invites you to get to know plants more deeply - not simply through 'receiving information from so called experts' but by making your own felt connections.
We will be your guides, but won't be your 'teachers' - we provide a lunar-illuminated roadmap to facilitate your self exploration of a herb each month, supporting you to grow your relationship with that herb, while also expanding your relationship with trusting your own knowing.
The ingredients:
the lunar cycle
a plant ally for the month following broader quarterly themes
reflection & journalling prompts for every week of the moon cycle - focusing both on how the moon cycle might be impacting you, as well as how you are connecting with the plant
a monthly guided community tea tasting online
an online community forum to share thoughts, experiences & resources
access to our sensory herbalism & remedy making modules to further inspire you on your lunar cycle journey
optional 'The Moon & The Menstrual Cycle' lesson for folks who are interested in that connection
