The Herbalist’s Way: Knowledge, Craft & Practice
Herbalism is learned slowly, through making, observing, and returning to the same plants again and again. This blog explores what it means to walk the herbalist’s way — a path shaped by practice, patience, and relationship rather than quick results.
Walking the Shaman’s Way
Step into a fireside conversation with Plant Spirit Medicine Woman Sorrell Robbins and discover The Shaman’s Way—a year-long, in-person shamanic journey around the medicine wheel. In this intimate interview, Sorrell shares how 13 moons of ceremony, plant spirit allies, Munay Ki rites, and small-circle community can help you heal old wounds, awaken your inner healer, and remember who you truly are.

Awaken Your Inner Alchemist: The Magic of Making Your Own Flower Essences

Saying YES to Your Inner Shaman!
From seeing fairies as a child to healing deep wounds through shamanism, my journey has been profound. Now, I'm inviting you to join me on "The Shaman's Way" – a summer immersion for women seeking transformation. This isn't just a course; it's a sacred portal. Discover soul retrieval, plant spirit medicine, Munay Ki Rites, and more in a nurturing circle of sisters. Read my story and learn how you can join.
Soul Retrieval
Soul retrieval is a profound healing journey that can help you reconnect with lost parts of yourself, such as creativity, passion, and vitality. This ancient technique, often used by Shamanic Practitioners, involves recovering and reintegrating 'lost soul parts' that may have been forgotten or blocked due to trauma or life experiences.
The Medicine Wheel: A Journey Of Self-Discovery
The Medicine Wheel serves as a tool for self-reflection and spiritual growth. It can help us see our lives with greater clarity, identify areas needing healing, and navigate the world we exist in with a greater sense of inner-peace and outer-harmony.
The Munay Ki Rites: A Gentle Path to Shamanic Power
What are the Munay-Ki Rites, what do they feel like, and what can they change? A complete guide to all 10 initiations, plus Sorrell's own journey.
