An 8-week online course on earth-based healing traditions and folk herbalism.

Learn how to work with the medicine of the Earth, the elements and plants through the traditions of folk herbalism and ancestral wisdom.

If you are longing to connect with ancestral traditions of ritual and ceremony for healing of mind, body, and spirit - then this is the course for you.

Our ancestors knew the importance of observing the different patterns and cycles of nature. They understood how to bridge the spiritual realms into the physical plane for deep healing and transformation.

In this course, we will be remembering and honoring the wisdom of our ancestors that allows us to work with the elements, herbal medicine, and earth-based practices to bring healing into our lives.

You will learn about folk herbalism, what herbs to use for physical healing, their spiritual use and meaning, traditional methods of diagnosing imbalance, and how to incorporate ritual and ceremony for healing and protection.

We will be discussing ancestral wisdom on the energies of the four elements (Air, Fire, Water, Earth) their meaning and relation to natural phenomena, how to invoke and work with the elements for ritual, and how to bring balance to the elements in our bodies.

SOHEM goes beyond herbalism and dives deep into ancestral wisdom on healing, spirituality, ritual and ceremony.
