HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Today at 11am (Brisbane time) I will be hosting a live zoom New Years Day Mugwort ceremony.
For those who missed it here are the details again
Date: 1.1.2024
Time: 11am (Brisbane, Australia time)
Duration: 1 hour approx
Replay available: Yes I will post the replay in Mondays paid subscribers Substack after the event
Cost: The wildcraft series is available to paid subscribers but you can subscribe for only one month then cancel your paid subscription, so if you just want to do the mugwort ceremony and mugwort month it’s only going to be $8 (Whaaat?) yep only $8, or stay for a year for only $80 or as long as you want. I love that you can jump in and out as you want.
Do I need my own Mugwort?
If you can get your hands on some mugwort before then that great but if not don’t worry this intergalactic superstar can be accessed with just your intention and by just showing up to the ceremony.
Whats in the ceremony:
I will be showing you how to use sacred mugwort as a smoke (both inhaled and smudged), as an infused oil, and via a drum journey to meet the mugwort plant diva.
I will share with you some questions you might want to ask mugwort or you can think of your own.
What else will we be covering about mugwort over the next month?
Over the following three weeks I’ll be giving you lots of info on plant ID, harvesting - including using the full and dark moon to potentize infused oils with different energies which can be used in different ways for healing, clearing or manifesting.
I’ll show you how to make your own beautiful smudge sticks for energetic clearing and moxa sticks for healing inflammation and moving stagnation.
We will drink some mugwort tea and talk about when this is a good idea and when it isn’t.
We will be talking lots about dreaming, visioning, meditation and multidimensional reality, so strap in cause its going to get cosmic!

Whats happening 2024
This year there are lots of beautiful offerings coming up. I will be continuing the wildcraft series here on my Substack which will continue to be one of my main teaching platforms.
I will also be running courses with Cat Green from Everyday Empowered our Everyday Herbalism and Herbal Immunity courses will run again this year. These face to face courses via Zoom are a great way to get personal attention and work with us closely.
I will be starting Podcasts soon, probably late January. I’m excited to announces my first guest will be Tatiana Dawn (Twiggy) from Alchemilla Herbals and The Elder Tree, straight after her Tasmanian herbal pilgrimage. The podcasts will be available to all subscribers both free and paid.
HerbFest will be another amazing opportunity for us all to come together to celebrate herbs this year again.
I will also be running a few in person wildcrafting courses (dates and locations to come)
Towards the end of this year my new book comes out (woo hoo!!)
So stick around for so much sharing of all our plants friends!
Mentoring spaces available
I have an opening for a handful of mentoring clients at the start of this year. I offer mentoring to naturopathic students and graduates, for support with case studies, herbal education and clinical practice.
I also offer mentoring for people in small business using herbal products who would like help with formulation, product development and herbal education.
Session are either in person, if local, or via zoom and are $75 per hour.
