Plant Temple Fridays
April - October, 2024
10am-1pm each Friday (specific dates below)*
All gender identities welcome
*You can register for the whole series or for individual classes
This class will gather to engage respectful, nourishing, and collaborative relationships with our Plant Elders. We will listen in embodied presence to what the plants would like to show us. These circles will be an anchor and a touchstone to ground and attune to inner wisdom and the web of life in order to support our everyday lives as we surf the changing landscape of these times.
Experience the unique and exquisite presence of each plant that goes beyond what has been written. From the foundation of an authentic relationship, we will engage the
possibility for healing, transformation, and direct revelation.
This course is for all folks who enjoy being outside with the plants, connecting with community, and who have a desire to be in a personal relationship with the plant world.
Herbal tea, plant infused snacks, and a medicinal treat will be provided and will deepen our embodied experience of the plants. Tara Lanich-LaBrie of The Medicine Circle will be blessing us with her magic and sharing plant inspirited snacks from her family's farm, Esoterra Culinary. Tara is author of Foraged and Grown: Healing, Magical Recipes for Every Season, and a culinary herbalist that works with the land and plants to create healing and magical food.
In this class we will:
-
Practice developing authentic, reciprocal, and collaborative relationships with the Plant Elders and the Land
-
Receive direct messages and insight into your own spiritual, emotional, and physical growth in council from the Plants that choose to work with us
-
Engage in healing and divination practices with the Plants and the Land, including herbal baths and plant brushings
-
Experience the support, nourishment, and sacred process of being in a community with other humans and our collective wisdom in collaboration with the than human world
-
Rest, recharge, and restore with nature and the embodied knowing that we are nature
