A journey of Connection

Join us this winter in creating a 
circle of women
exploring, connecting, and building relationships with each other and the natural world. 

Women traditionally gathered medicine, food and supplies for household objects in small groups. It was at this time that women shared with each other the mundane, the trials of being a wife
 and mother, the joys of one's heart 
and wisdom about life.

The Santa Monica Mountains are 

the perfect backdrop for just
such an adventure.

We will
connect with the spirit of the plants, discover our individual plant allies (helper plants), learn the practical uses of the plants and how to prepare medicines. 

We will sit and observe nature
together in quiet contemplation,
enlivening our senses and understanding our place 
in the natural world more deeply.


$150.00 for 6 week session
+ a small materials fee
