Your sacred space is where you can find yourself again and again. 
~ Joseph Campbell ~

Become part of an ancient healing modality where...

  • Your clients could receive your sacred gifts that accelerate their healing.
  • And these sacred gifts could grow your practice in a new way.

Does this resonate?

You’re a committed healing practitioner with significant expertise, yet…
  • You have the desire to bring your clients into a deeper state of healing and conscious awareness.
  • You have a call to hold safe and sacred space so that your clients have more insight and understanding into their life purpose.
  • You would like to offer your clients more than traditional therapy’s limited options and prescription medications.
  • Your expertise may have reached its limits with some clients’ chronic ailments.​
  • You may feel the call to have more resources to assist clients who are stuck in their unhealthy patterns and you desire to create that space of healing in your practice.​ 
  • You sense something sacred happens when deep healing occurs.​

Here's our offering...

  • You will experience ancient and current advanced methodologies to hold safe and sacred space for deep healing.
  • You will be steeped in how to detect your clients’ different states of consciousness.
  • You will learn ways to integrate plant-spirit medicine therapy in your repertoire.​
  • And you will experience transformation and growth as a practitioner AND personally.
In our current healing and psychological world, we have seen that traditional therapies and pharmaceuticals no longer or have not worked for many of our clients, especially over the last few years. It seems to have brought about more and more frustration and feelings of helplessness on our parts as practitioners and surely for clients. Therefore, we and they need more options other than prescription medications and/or CBT, meditation, talk therapy, narrative therapy, etc. 

We have spoken to many experienced healing practitioners who have a desire and passion to learn more about transformational plant-spirit medicine, holding safe and sacred space, and how to use them both therapeutically to bring hope and support their clients who are stuck or who have been labeled with "treatment resistant depression," and the like.

Some also have shared they do not understand or weren't ever taught how to create and hold safe and sacred space for their clients (or for themselves) in any particular way and would love to learn more.

It is for those reasons and more we have decided and are honored to offer this Sacred Immersion Training Program. It's time to connect your clients to their deepest parts of themselves for transformational healing in a safe and sacred environment filled with compassion, caring, and authenticity. 

Please continue to read below for more information, the logistics, the tuition, and how to apply to become a part of our Sacred Immersion Training Program. We are looking forward to connecting with you and supporting you in this safe, sacred way so you may support your clients in breaking through their barriers and suffering to move forward in life.  

Mission & Devotions

​Our mission and devotions are:
  • To prepare healing practitioners to create and hold the safe space and sacredness of this people-centered process.
  • To teach/prepare healing practitioners about the sacredness that is plant-spirit medicine
  • To support healing practitioners in creating their own definition of sacredness, their own person-centered process, and sense of responsibility/respect for the process and plant
  • To create intimate, safe and sacred spaces for people to learn, grow, and heal by supporting them in learning to create the same for themselves
The Sacred Immersion Training Program is, in total, a mixed in-person and Zoom 10-month program (80 hours) and is a immersive experience for healing practitioners ready to include safe and sacred, transformational plant-spirit medicine therapy in their repertoire. We are looking forward to sharing this safe and sacred space with you so that you may share it with others.
This training in no way promotes, condones, or facilitates illegal activity, and is strictly for educational purposes only. It is designed to provide education from our personal and professional experiences.

Benefits, Objectives, Experiences

Sacredness

To us, Sacredness is ​calm expansion, being grounded and present, having intentionality, conducting and participating in ceremony and ritual, and connection to Life Source - something greater than ourselves and something that we can hold for each other.

Core Learning Objectives

  • Expand your knowledge about energy, sacredness, and your versatility as practitioners in aiding your clients in areas of depression, anxiety, and trauma.
  • Learn about the process of using plant-spirit medicines safely, therapeutically, and sacredly with your patients and clients from initial meeting, preparation, and immersion to integration.
  • Learn about plant-spirit medicine and sacredness on the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.
  • Learn more about yourself as a person, practitioner, and sacred space holder.

Benefits

  • Expand your practice in a whole new way.
  • Learn to hold safe and sacred space for your client's journey.
  • Support and accelerate your clients' healing journeys.
  • Grow your versatility as a practitioner in aiding and supporting your clients in gaining some relief in areas of depression, anxiety, trauma, and finding meaning in their lives.

Transformational Healing

Research of this modality has shown the ability to break through walls that have been there for many years, helping yourself and your clients to move forward while processing trauma and decreasing symptoms of challenging emotional experiences. In our SIT Program, we honor and support you in finding the sacredness of what it means to be a practitioner that creates and holds safe and sacred space for themselves and others.  ​

Community & Connection

Our intention is always to create safe and sacred spaces so that everyone receives all they need at any moment in this process. This is what we hold for our SIT Program as well; a deeply healing journey personally and with others in community.  

We promote community and connecting throughout this training in many ways, for example: holding meetings in between weekends, our 4-month monthly cohort supervision meetings, emails, and while we are all sharing ceremonial, safe and sacred space on the weekends.

Immersive & Integrative

Our ​SIT Program is an immersive experience in many ways. It is our belief that we learn best by experiencing and immersing ourselves into what we'd like to eventually to hold for others. You will learn how to create, prepare, and hold safe and sacred space on the different levels of consciousness: mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual - for yourself, your cohorts, and your clients.

You will also learn more about transformational plant-spirit medicine and how it works with those levels of consciousness. You will explore more about yourself as a person, sacred space holder, and practitioner as well as define what sacredness means and looks like to you. And you will learn the practical and the sacred in a created by community connections with others and more deeply with yourself.
