“I have enjoyed the wisdom that Pip and Lucy have shared, and their delightful way of offering knowledge and projects without making anything compulsory. There has been plenty opportunity for sharing between those of us taking part in the group.”

“Brilliant! The way that Lucy and Pip warmly welcomed everyone, held each person’s truths and experience of the seasons, communicated the relevant data about the seasons along with the relevant emotions that go with those seasons was authentic, smart, and kind. ”

“A cycle of seasons is now complete…This exploration took me on an amazing journey that not only deepened my awareness of nature and her moods, but also of my relationship with the seasons and my own cyclical patterns.”

Testimonials

"it has been such an illuminating, powerful experience"

A cycle of seasons is now complete. This exploration has taken me on an amazing journey that has not only deepened my awareness of nature and her moods, but also of my relationship to the seasons and my own cyclical patterns. I have enjoyed meeting like minded people who have enriched the whole journey. The gifts I have gathered throughout the year are a reconnection to my own creativity, a remembering of how precious kinship is whether it be to fellow humans, or our amazing plant life and planet. Thankyou so, so much Lucy and Pip for expertly guiding us through this elemental journey, through its highs (and some lows). It has been such an illuminating, powerful experience. Thankyou, thankyou.

"the most challenging and beautiful healing adventure"

The course has been the most challenging and beautiful healing adventure . To be in the presence of the wisdom and loving energy of the plant spirits , and to receive the wisdom and loving guidance of Pip and Lucy has been a blessing and a privilege . I feel I have only just begun to meet the healing teachers of the plant world , a long and beautiful apprenticeship awaits . I wish I could do it all again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. Plant spirit medicine has changed my life in a good way and I hope to share that experience with others in my herbal practice.

"the plants have so much to teach us if only we will listen"

When I first heard about PSM, I was intrigued, mystified and curious to learn more. I decided, rather tentatively, doubting I had time to fit anything else into my already hectic life. But I had a gut feeling it was the right thing to do, despite many self doubts about my ability to connect with spirit - plant spirits. I have been amazed at how much I have learned and connected to the wonderful plants. They have so much to teach us if only we will listen. All this is with huge thanks to Pip & Lucy - not only wonderful, sincere genuine people but incredibly inspiring too.

Whether you wish to develop or add a healing modality to your skills or experience personal growth I recommend this course. The benefits are many, including meeting other wonderful like minded people. SP derbyshire

I came to do the Plant Spirit Medicine training after having treatments with Pip for a number of years and feeling a deep call to learn more about this incredible medicine. The first year was of practical nature and a deep dive into the 5 Elements , this meant we had the privilege to spend our time outside in a beautiful setting in the Shropshire countryside with an incredible tribe of people connecting with our plant friends and to the seasonal cycles through journaling and drum journeying .

Our teachers Pip Waller and Lucy Wells were guiding us through each weekend with great knowledge and wisdom.

The second year built up the practical and theoretical knowledge behind Plant Spirit Medicine and gave us the tools to start putting into practise what we had learned in the first year.

I learned so much doing my case studies during the last year and had 1-2-1 mentoring and feedback with both Pip and Lucy. I felt throughly supported throughout , which has continued after the graduation as well. Pip and Lucy have extensive knowledge and lived wisdom that comes through in every part of the training as well as a relaxed , creative and fun way of teaching. I loved our elemental themed evenings , sacred fires and singing that were such joyful moments running throughout the two years.

I am both humbled and excited to be able to offer this medicine that comes directly from our plant allies to my clients . With deep Gratitude from the bottom of my heart.

"the most amazing course that I have ever done"

I have just completed the most amazing course that I have ever done. It was an incredible and deeply moving journey over two years with a group of people that I had never met before, and whom I can now call family. A journey of emotions, tears, laughter, friendships, facing oneself, growth and healing in a sacred, supportive safe space. Lucy and Pip are the most down to earth, funny, inspiring teachers I have ever met and they take us on a magical journey.

A wonderful journey with the plant spirits, sitting and engaging with them with an open heart, to receive their medicine for ourselves and enabling us to offer help to others on their healing journey.

I highly recommend this course.
