6 day Women's Herbal Medicine Retreat - Born of an Ancient Core

Born of an Ancient Core

Returning to the soft, ever flowing wisdom that lives within us,
communing with, listening to, and becoming our True Nature

Outside Asheville, NC

🔥



Women carry an intrinsic connection with the realms of Spirit; Birth Givers, Womb Carriers, Plant Stewards, and Seed Tenders of a New & Ancient World.

For centuries we have gathered herbs, made medicine, and tended to the hearth and health of our families and communities. It is through the precious portals of our wombs that women are deeply and innately connected with the spiritual realms, being those that bring children to Earth. It is one of our greatest gifts; born gateways for bridging Heaven on Earth.

This 6 day immersion is designed to both soften and empower women to deepen in their unique medicine; a flowering of the Soul. It is a reclamation of our true nature, through herbal education and deep listening. We will be gently nourished by the wild springs and empowered by the medicine of sisterhood, song and Plant Spirit Medicine.

Together we will study herbal medicine specific to women’s health (natural birth control, plants that support us in our menstrual cycles, herbs specific for menopause, PCOS, endometriosis, etc.)

In addition, we will learn how to listen to the spirits of the plants and connect with them on a multidimensional level; spending intimate time with Lotus, Rose, Trillium and the native plants of Appalachia.

Our time together will be a balance of education, ceremony, & play. 🌹

This is a safe container to enjoy your magic, to pause and come back to center, to release what holds you back, and to empower yourself as an herbalist and as medicine for these times.

“Rest in that sacred place within yourself
and again remember who you are…
What is your true nature?
Why did you come to this Earth?
No one else can uncover this story for you
It is in the precious embrace of our own hearts
that we find our true nature.

In the deep ebb and flow of our wombs

and in the silent space between breaths

We find ourselves again and agin

holy, wholly, home on Earth.

We carry the fire to rewrite and embody ourselves;

To discover the fire of our Element

In this, comes returning to the simple architecture of our being;
Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Ether
When we begin to understand these elements within ourselves
we can work with them to reconstruct the fabric of our being.
Returning to the heart;
to give life to life!”
