earth medicine retreat

I'd been wanting to try an earth medicine retreat with Angela for a while, mainly to help release fear and anxiety. The experience was very supportive and gave me space to come closer to my own truth and inner wisdom. I love the way Angela holds space for others. She is warm, open, and strong. I felt I could show up 100% and no matter what I said or experienced, there would be no judgement. I came away from the retreat with a greater awareness of my own deep wisdom, as well as my capacity for greater self-acceptance. Angela is a gifted space holder and spiritual teacher that I'll continue to recommend.

cacao ceremony + soundbath

The Cacao circle was a beautiful mix of ecstatic dance, sound journey, and some lovely deep breathwork. I felt immediately moved as I entered the space and knew it was going to be an amazing evening, and it was lovely seeing so many different people there. I think all of us received something special that night. I am looking forward to more.

Apprenticeship

conscious community

From the very first weekend, Angela's teachings affected me in a profound way and everything in my life started to make sense. We learned about journeying, proper protocol, building our Medicine Hearth and the cosmovision of the 7-Threads lineage as a tool for navigating life. Not only did I gain so much knowledge, I also developed connections with wonderful people walking the same path. As part of the apprenticeship, I have access to an online group where we discuss what we have learned and help each other with integration. Apart from being highly organized and thorough in her work, Angela has a beautiful way of providing sacred space and ceremony that feels down to earth and connected to Spirit. I am forever grateful for the teachings and the path.

spiritual counsel and leadership

Angela is a fantastic spiritual teacher and healer. The spirits are strong with her, but she does not carry them heavily or loudly. I was delighted to find that she is very powerful, very knowledgeable, and has a ton of information to pass on to students. Her years of experience with spiritual leadership and counselling shine through her teaching.

animist apprenticeship

Working with Angela in the apprenticeship has changed my life in profound ways. When I began, my actions and thoughts were causing me a lot of suffering . I was not completely unhappy but I was struggling. Almost 3 years later, I am content with my life. I have learned so much about being at peace with myself and the world around me. I am deeply fulfilled by the practices I've learned and the animistic way of living in sacred reciprocity - especially with nature. I feel myself as a part of the magic of life around me and feel supported by it. I am deeply grateful for being given the skills to awaken the medicine in myself and this beautiful practice.

spiritual growth

I am amazed at the spiritual growth that has taken place for me as a result of the apprenticeship. Angela is a passionate and gifted Shamanic Practitioner, and creates a wonderfully supportive healing and learning environment. I would highly recommend this program.

Psychedelic Integration

deep healing

The medicine path is a very sacred path to me and not an easy one. The Ceremony opens the door to the truth of who we are and where our work is, but integration helps us walk through the door, so we can allow the healing to happen, make practical change, and live our truth. I’ve been able to go deeper into my healing because integration makes it more digestible, helps regulate my nervous system, and offers me a day to day practice. I am very grateful for the important platform and safe environment of the integration circles, as well as what I’ve learned and applied in my journey through Angela's wisdom sharing and guidance.

integration circles

The weeks and months after Ceremony are a precious time. It’s easy to think that everything is "fixed" and carry on as before, however integration work has shown me that big lessons need time to unravel and fully understand. Integration helps keep the healing process alive, so I can continue to grow, and really practice and learn a new way of being and understanding myself and how I fit in this life.

Plant Spirit Medicine Integration circles have brought amazing people into my life who lovingly share their own innate wisdom, and give me an opportunity to reciprocate. My most impactful learning has been that I can feel my deepest emotions, share these and be not just "ok" but stronger for it! I can be exactly and deeply who I am. The circles have been the most important part of the process for me and allowed me to fully accept the gifts of ceremony and weave them into my life.

inner work

When I returned home from South America, I felt inspired and balanced for a week or so. I tried to self-integrate but couldn’t make sense of the powerful messages and deeper spiritual meanings I had received in Ceremony. I didn’t understand what do with them, or how to create action steps to deal with my fear and resistance.

Through the integration circles, I discovered that this is where the real inner work begins! I have found spiritual community, guidance, and emotional education. With each session, I’ve embraced a deeper gratitude for my plant allies, ancestors, animals, Indigenous land, and sacred space. The most significant lesson I've gained is to trust in the process.

Mentorship

a safe space for practitioners

As a practitioner and teacher, working with Angela as a mentor is like having a soft place to land with someone who knows exactly what I am talking about, and understands in a deep way the intricacies and specific things that come up not just with my practice but also with my personal life. Angela understands the intersection of where these meet, and that we practitioners also need someone to confide in, who will hold us to the integrity we wish to walk with. Working with her has not only made me a better practitioner but a better human.

spiritual growth for therapists

I am a PTSD therapist with a relevant graduate degree and multiple undergraduate degrees, as well as holding certificates in several different therapeutic modalities. I have been working in mental health and addiction for 20 years. Despite my knowledge and training I was powerless over my PTSD and its impact on my ability to really show up as the therapist I knew I could be. Angela’s mentorship and spiritual teachings, allowed me to safely navigate a truly initiatory period of my life. She also mentored me through the integration of this stage of healing and spiritual development. This process of true self-realization allowed me to dedicate myself to the healing of others on a level I was unaware of before, while moving into a new experience of a life of action and joy.

having someone in my corner

When looking for a mentor I look for someone who embraces beginners mind, who is willing to look again, and is on the same learning/unlearning journey as me, but further along on the path. This is what drew me to Angela. I feel seen, heard, appreciated, and supported - like I have someone in my corner who will be straight with me, with love as the only motivation. The tough conversations have been most impactful because they’re celebrated instead of swept under the rug, and this has led to liberation. Angela holds a very powerful container this way. If you are looking for someone with integrity and embodied wisdom to walk with you through light and dark, you want to work with Angela.
