****The first year of apprenticeship is for the Personal Creation of Deep Relationship with your chosen Master Teacher Plant/s (this apprenticeship is not limited to anyone plant, but will support you to learn the way to develop this direct spiritual connection to any plant teacher.) Many may choose to only embark on year 1 of the training to radically deepen in the personal connection and love of the plants and to become more empowered within their individual journey of healing and awakening.
This year of immersive learning with the plants will illuminate each apprentice’s sacred path of service and if in their calling is to move forward with the next level and year of focused apprenticeship.
This in-person and online container offers absolutely unique and lineage sanctioned mentorship and energetic support for the steep and intense learning curve with the master teacher plants through:
