"I have to say that I feel so deeply blessed to be able to study this medicine. It is taking my understanding of plants to the level that I intuitively knew existed but had no way of knowing how to go about getting to. It brings together everything I have studied up to now, from cranial sacral, herbal medicine, shamanism and the healing of consciousness for not just us but for the planet." Derek, Washington

Work Exchange - Each year we accept two people to do partial work exchange with a reduction in fee for each class and apprenticeship.

Plant Spirit Healing Apprenticeship

Dates: April 23-25, May 21-23, June 18-20, July 16-18, August 13-15, September 10-12, October 15-17

Friday 10:00am to Sunday 3:00pm. ~ All sessions must be attended.

Plant Spirit Healing joins the conscious intelligence of plants and humans, generating profound healing through alignment with the vast network of Nature. We are a part of that organic web and when we ask sentient plant beings to communicate, guide and heal us we catalyze our innate potential to be who we truly are and live more fully engaged in our lives as we walk the path that is uniquely ours. Extending far beyond symptomatic healing, it addresses the roots of our physical, emotional and spiritual imbalances and the source of our dis-ease by raising our awareness and making broken hearts, exiled souls and malnourished spirits whole again. Beyond personal healing, Plant Spirit Healing offers a way for us to restore balance to the Earth through living in concert with spiritual ecology and planetary imperatives.

Pam Montgomery

"To be healthy is to be whole and to be holy. It is to acknowledge the great goodness that our bodies are linked to the bodies of other people, to the bodies of plants and animals, indeed to the earth, the sun and moon, and the other heavenly bodies. It is to receive the awareness, at once humbling and exhilarating, that we are a part of Creation, one with all that we live from and all that, in turn, lives from us." - Wendell Berry

 

 

Plant Communication ~ Re-claiming our Birth-rite

Plants are the most successful organisms on the planet and unlike animals, including humans, have the unique ability to create food, oxygen and tissue from sunlight. The latest scientific research shows that they are intelligent beings who have the capacity to store enormous amounts of information while being highly efficient in communicating and making decisions. Indigenous healers have known this about plants for centuries and have recognized that it is actually the spirit of the plants that does the communicating and healing.

During this three day intensive we will explore both science and traditional knowledge to learn how to communicate with plants and translate their message. Through entering the daydream of the plant and through traditional dream journeying we will come to understand the spirit of the plant and how it can serve as a guide, ally and friend helping us in our lives and other’s with everything from serious physical illness to making decisions in our lives to bringing a greater sense of well being. Join us as we learn how to align with the plants and listen deeply.

This experiential long weekend will include:

    • receiving the resonant signature of the plant through felt sense

    • building relationship with plants through sensual awareness

    • communication through light, sound and breath

    • stepping into the daydream of plants

    • Spiritual Plant Bathing

    • receiving a personal plant ally

    • traditional shamanic journeying

    • focused breathing with plants called “Greenbreath” to overcome obstacles, access healing and merge with plants

    • deepening already existing relationships with plants for efficient effective treatments
