The MAGIC, MEDICINE & MYSTERY of TREES

A Retreat for Grounding & Healing the Heart with Medicinal Herbs

CENTRAL PORTUGAL

Guided by Herbalists Robin Rose Bennett & Olivia Fite

Saturday & Sunday - October 21 & 22

Hawthorn, Oak, and Olive will be our magnificent guides as we delve into an exploration of the wisdom that these and other trees have to offer us.

Become healthily rooted in kinship, cultivate a joyful heart that is also at ease expressing grief, and a healthy body with the help of physical and spiritual tree medicines.  

We’ll share time with trees, observing, meditating, and journaling or drawing. We will also be exploring a variety of medicinal preparations that can be made from tree twigs, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds to offer us immune strengthening, skin healing, spirit lifting, heart nourishing medicine, and more!  

You will go home with not only a deeper connection to these specific trees, but knowledge & practices for you to expand your relationship to other plants for many more years to come.
