Hold integration sessions, that help keep the natural wisdom of Ceremony alive for people, in an embodied, heart centered, grounded way. This body of work is both somatically & trauma informed.
This course will teach you how to support people to integrate their experiences in ceremony, back into their everyday lives, in a way that honours the living web of life, and their connection to their own spirit wisdom and self love. While working with modern somatic, trauma informed practices to ensure the lessons and gifts from ceremony become embodied.
Plant Medicine Teachers open us up to experience the weaving of the luminous web of life. The threads of this web are made up of the 5 Elements - Spirit| Fire | Earth| Water| Air. We can call this an indigenous world view.
Plant Teachers show us where the threads of the living web around us are broken, or the energy flow is blocked. You will learn practices both ancient and modern about how to tend and mend these threads, in relationship with the 5 Elements, and with modern theurapeutic practices.
We give respect to Indigenous People around the world, who under great duress have held true to their sacred wisdom teachings and practices
of nature connected spirituality. I give respect to the Indigenous People of my birth country Australia, and Uki where I live. I pay my respects to the Elders,
past, present, and emerging.
Learn how to empower people to integrate their journeys, in a trauma aware and embodied way, connected to their
True Nature
5 Elements and Mother Earth - so they feel able to create soulful, loving, positive change, benefiting themselves, their families & communities.
Learn the art of creating a container of non judgement, acceptance & love.

MEET YOUR FACILTATOR,
SASHA STAR
"I am passionate about creating safe and sacred spaces - bridging ceremony and daily life".
Sasha has learned from shamanic wisdom teachers for 25 years - firstly through wisdom teachings from the Seneca Wolf Clan People's of North America, and Indigenous Australian wisdom keepers - then later from sitting with Q'eros Elders & Shipibo Maetros & maestra's in Peru.
Over the last few years, she has explored the wisdom teachings of her own ancestral heritage, undertaking pilgramages to sacred sites in both England and Ireland, where the guidance from the Elements, the natural world, and Mother Earth helped connect her with her spiritual roots.
On her path Sasha learnt that self love is key in all realms - and to trust her intuition. She learnt protocol on how to work with spirit realms.
She also learnt how the body holds trauma until the person is ready to integrate it, and how to help facilitate the transmutation of these energy blocks through somatic practices, breathe, and other movement therapies.
Sasha first met the Plant Teachers in 2001, who became beloved guides on her path.
Beginning in 2016, Sasha worked for four years as part of a team in sacred ceremonial service, holding space and offering song in Ceremony. She founded the pre and post ceremony care & Integration service, at the retreat centre where she worked, and has coninued to offer Plant Medicine Integration sessions since.
Her recognition of the importance of recent developements in somatic modalities and trauma healing led her to study, Mastering the Treatment of Trauma, as well as undertaking her own personal research. She is particularly interested in the intersection of spirituality, science, somatic psychotherapy, indigenous wisdom teachings, rituals and Mother Earth's lore. Which is the inspiration for creating this course.
Her own journey connecting more deeply with the 5 Elements began in ceremony guided by the Plant Teachers, was nourished by time spent with indigenous wisdom keepers, and continues through her teaching of the Medicine Wheel online, (where she developed her Weaving Worlds Drum Journey work), and her immersion in the natural elemental beauty of the land around her home of Uki Australia. Sasha's North Star is love & authenticity.
"The wisdom I received is strong".
"Sasha, I hold close to my heart, anchoring me to Gaia while weaving the threads of the past through our new found self discoveries. Her wisdom and teachings from her deep understandings and workings with the sacred plant medicines, and Celtic & Peruvian guidance, flowed through with such safety, grace and divine energy. The wisdom I recieved is strong. I can't thank you enough Sasha, Pacha Mama, and the Elements and Allies.... Doors have opened, new understandings have been felt and our indigenous roots honoured."

"I am so grateful to Sasha for being such a nurturing, attentive and grounded guide. Because of my personal and social conditioning, I used to struggle to give voice to the critic inside my head, which means it often grews inside and lead to me stepping into separation. Instead, thanks to Sasha's patience and understanding, I felt empowered to speak my truth and learn from my doubts. It was really a revolutionary experience of being able to bring "the whole me" to the journey, and I now feel like I have been able to equip myself with all the knowledge and tools of the course without having to give up my critical thinking (which can be a very good thing!).
I have been in similar contexts where such questioning is not so welcome, and found Sasha's gentle strength in holding it nothing short of remarkable. I now feel empowered... I am so excited to see where it leads! I couldn't be happier with the outcome, and hope to work with Sasha again soon. THANK YOU ALL!" Frida, writer, ceremonial facilitator & integration guide
"Writing this I am finding it very hard to find the right words to describe the beautiful and profound journey Sasha took me on. It was a journey of getting in touch with my true self and self love, rediscovering to trust my intuition and creating a ritual for my self in order to step into the next part of my path on this earth.
Having come back from a six months journey to South America where quite a few of my inner workings had started to be presented in a new light, working with Sasha has helped me to untangle, realign and let go of the ones not needed any longer, while stepping into a new chapter of my life.
I feel that these words hardly do the profundity of this process and the amazingness of Sasha any justice, but I do hope that they do inspire anyone who feels the slightest calling, to follow their intuition and go on this magical and beautiful journey with the even more magical Sasha". Leone, artist and Bespoke Hand poke Tattoos, Art Therapy student
"This course gave me everything that I expected and so much more. Getting to know Sasha and feeling everyone’s energy (even through Zoom) was incredibly helpful. It feels like the community, the satsang as Ram Dass would say is brewing beautifully in the background. I’m sure the experience can be different for everyone, I can only talk for myself, but the integration felt like years of work.
... Integration gave me strength to start the work with my gifts, not to feel like I’m not worthy or too small. I feel like I’m going through an incredible change inside, and obviously outside as well. I managed to move out from a situation and relationship which didn’t help me on my path in the most peaceful way. I can only recommend this course to anyone who’s ready to take the next step." Kati, Nurse
"I learnt so much wisdom and knowledge from Sasha, and also from the other participants in the group. It was amazing how many synchronicities happened as the weeks went on. I found it to be a very positive, transformative and beautiful experience. I would highly recommend this course". Heather, hypnotherapist
