An introspective plant medicine immersion with rose
Saturdays beginning May 10 at 10-11:30am ET
We’ll gather live online for six weeks to introduce ourselves to rose, develop and deepen relationship to learn more about their medicine, and engage in a self-reflection journey to learn about how that medicine lives within us and our lives. We’ll explore the plant’s energetic and physiological personality through connecting to our own bodies, gentle movement, guided visualization, guided reflection practice, and herbal medicine making.

Relationship & Reverence
Unlike courses that only teach about a plant's physical properties or what it "does" for humans, our time together is a communion with the plant's spirit. This space supports you in building your personal relationship with the deeper essence of rose, utilizing reverence as a tool of connection.
This journey is more about learning how to build relationship than about how to "use" a plant. Sufia supports you in building your own intuitive language and way of learning directly from rose about its personality and medicine, a practice you can continue with other plants, other humans, and other unseen beings.
Each week, we'll commune with rose through a different avenue of connection including guided visualization, movement practice, guided reflection, and studying the plant's constituents and energetics. In this way, you learn about the multidimensional medicines of the plant, while learning and honoring your own medicines.

In addition to weekly live gatherings, Sufia will provide daily practices to initiate and deepen your connection with rose.
Unlike a typical academic model of engaging learning material only in a classroom or at a particular time, Plant Commune-ment is a six week immersive experience, a guided way to journey with a new relative and invite them fully into your life.
No prior experience or knowledge is required, simply bring gentleness for yourself and a sense of curiosity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a particular spiritual or religious background?
No, this work is based on messages from nature, not a particular tradition. Energies that support this container are Earth, Sky, Fire, Water, Wind, Ether and our plant relatives - energies that can be witnessed and learned from by everyone because of their inherent interconnectedness with nature, and simply because of being a Being on this planet.
Do I need special equipment or tools?
Access to the internet is all that is needed. You'll be able to access the course on this site using the login info you create at registration. Access to a quiet, comfortable space and a journal dedicated to this course are highly recommended.
This course is set up so that you may connect with rose on the non-physical plane, so it is not necessary to purchase the physical plant for our time together. However, it is delightful to experience rose's medicine in different forms, so upon registration Sufia will provide some trusted sources to obtain rose if desired.
We'll be discussing and implementing many tools and practices, so you'll likely find you want to incorporate things like candles, altar items, a mat or cushion, or other comfort items, but none of these are required for participation.
Are there prerequisites or particular knowledge needed?
Nope, just a desire for this type of growth. A sense of curiosity and willingness to practice gentleness with yourself will be immensely helpful.
This work builds on itself and provides a fertile foundation for further study in herbalism, energy medicine, and other intuitive arts.
