Rose Shamanic Plant Spirit Initiation
Rose is a potent international symbol of love, beauty, the Sacred Feminine, personal transformation and the Divine; a powerful symbol in many spiritual traditions and carries deep symbolic meanings across cultures.
Working with Rose ceremonially brings us many teachings on profound levels, and is a key medicine for the heart and heart chakra (anahata chakra). Rose’s wisdom teaches us about seeing our own inner beauty, the Sacred Feminine, and helps us deal with overwhelming emotions with softness and grace.
Rose also brings teachings about the cycle of life - budding, blooming, death, transformation and reseeding, helping us to either blossom into our fullness or close old chapters.
Like many in the Rosaceae family, Rose’s wisdom brings us lessons related to its thorn medicine, teaching us about the boundaries that protect our essence, our beauty, and the fruits of our labour, helping blossom deeper love and understanding of our self and others.

What is a Shamanic Plant Spirit Initiation?
A shamanic plant spirit initiation involves a deep, spiritual connection with one Plant or Tree. The initiation creates the sacred container for personal transformation, healing, and a greater understanding of oneself and the natural world with the Plant or Tree as your teacher, elder and guide. The word initiation is utilised as the ceremony is not a simple ‘meet and greet’ of a Plant, it requires a commitment to the Green Being in the form of fasting, so you are able to diet with the Plant or Tree for the entirety of the ceremony. The initiation is entirely an experiential ceremony. The facilitator will utilise different shamanic and energy practices open the connection between you and the Plant or Tree and help you enter into the energy realm of your Green Being Ally. Personal reflection is a large part of the initiation, as there is no middle man interpreting or receiving messages on your behalf. The initiation gives rise to you becoming your own guide with the Plant or Tree Ally as a mentor.
Cedar Shamanic Plant Spirit Initiation
One of the most sacred trees of North America’s First Nation People’s, Cedar has been part of supporting life and ceremony for hundreds of years. We will be journeying with Cedar to learn from this plant ally’s gifts of strength, protection and ancestral memory.

Shamanic Plant Ceremonialist Practitioner Training
An advanced, experiential training designed for those ready to support others and enter direct, ceremonial communion with the intelligence of the Plant Kingdom.
For over a decade each, we have held ceremonies with the non-psychotropic plants of the world, listening to their ancient wisdom and sharing their spiritual medicine. With strong guidance from the Plant Kingdom, we feel it is time for us to share the harvest of all that we have experienced and plant seeds with those called to the sacred path of service.
With this heart-intention in mind, we have created a practitioner training that guides those who are already on their awakening journey to begin holding ceremonies for participants to experience the magic and healing of the Plant Kingdom.
Leading the Way for the Future of transformational Plant Medicine Ceremonies.
Our connection to the green world is a fundamental part of humankind’s evolution.
We have been gathering in ritual with plants ever since we first walked the earth.
It is one of our most ancient forms of communion, health, and spiritual guidance.
And yet, in our modern world, we have become profoundly severed from the land and its subtle wisdom. Anxiety, ecological grief, and a sense of "rootlessness" are at all-time highs.
At the same time, we know that ceremony and a direct relationship with our native flora are vital for our individual wellbeing and community resilience.
For over a decade each, we have been passionately pioneering a grounded approach to plant medicine: weaving the deep ritual of shamanic practice with the accessible healing power of native, non-psychotropic plants.
A quiet shift is underway in the world of healing. People are beginning to turn back towards the land, towards slower ways of knowing, towards forms of transformation that ask for presence rather than intensity. With this growing interest comes a deeper need for practitioners who can walk this path with care, humility, and integrity.
This training is for those who feel that call within themselves.
The Shamanic Plant Ceremonialist Practitioner Training offers a way into working with native, non-psychotropic plants as allies in ceremony. In a landscape where much attention is placed on psychoactive altered states with exotic plants and experiences in far-off lands, this path returns to something more subtle yet equally powerful. It invites a form of transformation rooted in relationship, in listening, in the intelligence that already exists within our body and the local natural world.
The work is gentle, yet profound.
Through this training, you learn to recognise the quiet power of plants that grow on our doorstep and to work with them as companions in the unfolding of inner change. You begin to develop the capacity to hold space for others in a way that is steady and attuned, grounded in ethical awareness and respect for the processes that arise.
At a time where people are searching for meaning and belonging, it feels more important than ever to sit in a circle, listen to the plants in our local landscape, and remember how to heal ourselves. These ceremonial spaces are lifelines. People find a sense of peace that doesn't require a "trip," discover the profound magic in nature that surrounds us, and feel a groundedness that conventional wellness often misses. For many, these practices have restored their sense of purpose and local belonging.
There is a growing need for this kind of work. Spaces that do not overwhelm the system, but support it. Experiences that do not take people away from themselves, but bring them closer. We see a huge opportunity in the current nature-connection, shamanism, and wellness boom.
Forest bathing, herbalism, and cold-water swimming have moved beyond the fringes and are now recognised as essential for wellbeing.
Grounded, non-psychotropic ceremonial spaces are finding their way into the mainstream too.
This is not a path of quick results. It asks you to slow down, to deepen your perception and personal practice, and to build a relationship with the land you stand on. In doing so, you grow into a practitioner who can offer spaces that feel safe, connected, and real.
How we sit with the plants influences our culture, our ecology, and our collective healing.
This is a returning.
A returning to the land, to the body, to ways of healing that honour connection and responsibility. Where the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
If you feel the pull towards this work, this training is a place to begin.

You will receive another mentoring call before attending an in-person plant quest weekend on 4th June - 6th June 2027.

You will receive an integration call on Sunday 20th June (alternative date maybe available as long as it is very close to this date) to complete the journey.
There are only a very small number of spaces as this is running alongside our Shamanic Plant Ceremonialist Practitioner Training. As the Plant Kingdom loves to be in communion with humankind we wanted to open this out to those who are not on the practitioner training but ready to commit to the next level of relationship with a plant.
Included in the investment amount is a camping space and food for the weekend. Investment is on a trust based sliding scale:

Community Peace Circle
In light of the current political climate of the UK and the heart breaking events that continue to unfolding globally, it has never been more important for us to hold the intention of peace. Set on the day of Stand Up To Racism march in London, this gathering is our way of supporting peace, harmony, unity and freedom, between all people and lands. This is a donation based event (suggested donation £10 but offer what you can), registration is required so we can prepare and send out details closer to the time.
We believe that peace in our outer world begins when we know, understand, experience and embody peace in our inner world. To guide this journey, we will work with two sacred plant allies from the North American First American traditions:
The White Pine Tree is known as the Tree of Peace in five traditions of the indigenous peoples of North-East North America a symbol of unity between the five nations.
Tobacco is a sacred plant ally also part of the North American First Nations traditions, whose spirit carries prayers to the Creator and a sacred plant of the peace pipe (please note we are not be ingesting or selling tobacco in this ceremony).
We will be in ceremony with these two plant allies, with the support and witness of Grandfather Fire, sharing in circle to acknowledge places in our inner world or lives where we may be experiencing conflict, and offer prayers for collective peace in our communities, localities, country and globally.
