Guided Practices of Intuitive Herbalism...
"I can highly recommend joining Emilia for her monthly herb circle. We were blindfolded and introduced to a mystery medicinal plant, to feel, smell and tune into the plant with other senses. Truly a mindblowing experience of discovery. We walked up into the woodland and used art materials to reflect our findings. Each month there is a different plant exploration in a different way. I will definately be back next month."

A Training Journey to Embody Earth Wisdom Teachings and The Ecological Consciousness Grandmother Earth is Calling For.

Cave of the Ancients 2025
Our aim is to support an evolutionary and revolutionary transformation that enables humans to realign with life on Earth and flourish. We will use the Medicine Wheel as our map and Earth Wisdom Teachings to empower and heal ourselves.

Our personal awakening serves the collective awakening, and on this journey, we’ll be making ripples of expanded consciousness in the world.

We’ll be learning to evoke the fields of creative genius, heightened awareness, emotional power, clear purpose, healing and resilience, dreaming, courage and acting for the benefit of the whole, integrity and vitality.

This journey includes tools for groups, family situations and the world.

Learning Ceremonies
The journey consists of eight three-day learning ceremonies. You’ll be learning dynamic and practical tools for self-knowledge through relationship with the web of life.

This journey has the potential to bring you dramatic personal growth, and in the intervals between ceremonies you explore the teachings in daily life. In this way you embody the learning and gain the depth of benefit you are seeking.

Join Robert this Wednesday evening 23rd July 5pm - 7pm for his first group offering here at the Hands On Retreat:

Satsang is all about creating a space where it's easy for everyone to relax into their authentic beingness which is of course loving presence.

It's not a place for the mind to engage but more of a no mind space for our hearts to flower.

The best way I can describe Satsang is an intentional gathering of souls in human form coming together to remind each other of who we truly are and through embodying that realisation, much healing occurs for everyone present.

Satsang is always unique in the way it unfolds and ĥas no set format.

Nothing to bring except sincerity 💛 and tender honesty🤍
