Plant Allies for Shadow Work

Working with our inner shadows in healthy and beneficial ways  supports spiritual evolution and overall health. As we move into the  darker half of the year--with longer nights and colder weather--we are  provided a beautiful opportunity to spend more time in introspection.  Shadow work involves approaching our inner tender spots, including hurt,  anger, and grief, with guidance and in a safe space. Whether working  with a shadow work journal, a mental health professional, or a spiritual  guide, plants and the natural world can provide meaningful support. In  this class, we will journey through folklore, ancient symbolism, and  personal accounts of magical allyship with the plant world. We will  highlight the mystical aspects of certain plants that beneficially  contribute to shadow work and the road to personal betterment.

Trigger  warning: In this class, we will touch on some topics which certain  people may find triggering. These topics include grief, anger, thoughts  of harm/self-harm, and mental illness.
