Join Good Medicine Collective members Tessy Seward and Ginny Gill for a quarterly series designed to deepen our familiarity and relationship with local medicinal plants. Explore the identities and traditional uses of these plants while connecting with them in teas, tinctures and essential oils. Tessy and Ginny will guide movement, meditation and breathwork practices carefully chosen to complement the cycle of the seasons and the energetics of each plant.

Winter Offering: Monday, December 15th, 6-8:30 pm. Meet ELDER

During this the darkest week of the year, we will gather for an intimate evening with Elder, the thirteenth and last tree in the Celtic tree calendar. Elder is associated with wisdom, transformation, and regeneration. She connects us to the otherworld and the eternal cycle of death and rebirth and offers potent protective and healing medicine for the body. If you’ve ever reached for elderberry syrup during cold and flu season, you are familiar with some of the gifts of this tree, gifts which inspired Hippocrates to name Elder his “medicine chest.”

Join us Monday, December 15th, 6-8:30 pm to learn more about the history, properties and energetic signature of ELDER.

Tessy and Ginny will share herbal lore as well as movement and breath practices to deepen our connection with this ancient healer, protector and guide.

Tessy will lead a yoga kriya and Ginny will guide us in a conscious connected breathwork practice to expand our meeting of this plant ally.

Join Genell Huston & Ginny Gill for a space to honor, court, revere, and support the woman you are stepping into.  Each breath, each step, each leap is for you to create. Where will you head? What will you forgive? What will you embrace? What are you willing to live?  What remains unseen?  

Together in a circle of women we will welcome in a new beginning with intention and be guided by movement, breath, spirit, into a sacred container to support the emerging in each of us. Be ready to move, breathe, and be.

To support what is emerging in you, we will open by inviting in the wisdom of Cacao entering a portal to soften our hearts.  A yoga/movement session to support deep listening to the wisdom well of your body's movements, sensations, and divine nature. The movements will help you connect to your tissues, to your mind, to your heart. After the movement, we will shift into a Breath Journey, moving into a conscious continuous breath to support access to a deeper levels of consciousness, release stored emotion, and settle our nervous system into rest, digest, and release. These practices combined can offer big shifts, releases, and inspirations. To support what is emerging in you, we will open with a heart-centered cacao circle and close our time steeped in connection and creation with others to integrate. 

We are dedicated to being in a relationship with the Sacred Feminine and revere archetypes of the Goddess. We welcome women, non-binary, and gender-queer people who are devoted to the fullest expression of themselves.

Join us post offering for an optional field trip to local ocean beach for invigorating cold plunge.
