Reclaim your innate capacity to learn directly from the plants & cultivate tangible relationships with medicine plants.

More than ever before, humans need the wisdom of the plant world and we need people who know how to listen.

This course is a solid introduction to the art of Embodied Plant Listening - a practice inspired by Stephen Harrod Buhner, Amazonian Dieta traditions and ancient healers the world over. It will transform the way you relate to herbalism, plant medicine and your place in the living world. By discovering that you are capable of learning directly from the plants who actually hold the medicine, you will start to not just believe that plants are intelligent, aware beings but to actually perceive it.

When we listen to the plants, and not just other human’s opinions of herbal medicine, we can know herbs as living beings with their own essence and personality. It’s when we develop this kind of attentive relationship with the plants that their potential for healing and transformation is truly unlocked.

This unique combination of embodied practice, recorded classes and personal email guidance allows us to offer a low-cost entry point into this body of work while still ensuring that each student finds their way to actually embody the lessons.

I personally accompany and witness each student's journey.

Herbalist, teacher and deep lover of this wild earth

This is how it works:

  1. When you enrol, you get immediate acces to the 'Foundations of Ancient Herbalism' videos, covering herbal energetics, flavour theory, animist world views, etc.
  2. This gives us time to post you a herbal study pack with three mystery herbal tinctures (numbered) so you can start feeling your herbs without your mind hijacking the process. [Overseas enrolments will have a postage-related delay.]
  3. Every day, you do a guided meditation (provided) while ingesting your tincture. You fill out your daily entry in the workbook and you slowly start to perceive the effects and the personality of the plant.
  4. After one week, the class recording is released and you watch the class while reflecting on your own experience.
  5. Every week, you will be prompted to email your reflections on your experience. Each email is responded to personally by Stephanie.
  6. Each student who sends 80% of the reflection emails will get a bonus 1:1 tutorial with Stephanie in the month after completing the course.
 
Throughout history, plant people and healers have developed direct relationships with plants through developing the art of subtle listening. This kind of relationship is possible for you too. No matter what your plant walk looks like - whether you are a professional herbalist of 30 years experience, a beginner student or just someone who loves plants - your innate capacity for communication with plants is waiting to be unlocked.

  • Learn how to listen to plants, and identify what they are teaching you.
  • Reclaim your sensory and intuitive intelligence for a felt sense of connection to plants
  • Meet three powerful plants for mood and mind, and learn to use them with skill
  • Practice and apply herbal energetics and flavour theory

Frequently Asked Questions:

Is this just a bunch of videos?
Nope. This is an on-demand course with two important elements: the box of herbs for practical, daily embodiment of what you are learning AND a connective email journey, where you get a weekly reflection prompt in your inbox that goes straight to me. I read and respond personally to each email so I can accompany you on your journey and be available to support your learning experience.
What do I get when I sign up?
You get instant access to the Foundations of Ancient Herbalism mini course. You will then receive a box in the mail with 3 herbal tinctures plus a course journal. From that point on, classes and reflection prompts are drip-fed to you at specific times to allow you to practice and integrate before moving on.
What does this require of me?
All you need is 10-15 minutes of your day for personal practice, plus 90 mins per week for the classes and the reflections. It works best when you are able to commit to the process (the plants like this better too!) and be fairly stable in your routine. Don’t sign up if you are planning on travelling a lot, are pregnant/postpartum or in a party-hard phase of life. You just won’t be able to tune in to the plant in the way this requires.
What is your cancellation policy?
Sign up and feel regret instantly? I offer a 95% refund (to cover bank fees) in the first 24 hours. After that, as per Australian Consumer Law, I will only offer a refund if I fail to actually offer you something that matches the description on my website.
