There’s a kind of exhaustion that goes deeper than tired.
You’ve spent years looking after everyone else. Putting yourself last. Pushing through when your body asked you to stop.
And now your body is asking louder.
Maybe it’s physical signals you can’t ignore anymore. Maybe it’s a feeling of being disconnected from yourself.
Maybe you just know something needs to change.
You were taught to override your body. To push through your cycle, your fatigue, your knowing. To keep going no matter what.
But there is a different way.
For thousands of years, there have been herbs specifically for women’s bodies.
Plants named after Artemis, the goddess who protected women through every transition.
Mugwort, called “Mater Herbarum” or Mother of All Herbs. Hawthorn, wild woman of the hedgerows, used for centuries to bring clarity to the heart.
They grow in hedgerows and gardens. They’ve been supporting women through every threshold for centuries.
The woman you used to be is still in there. These plants are here to help you return to her.
I don’t feel like the same person I was 2 months ago. I’m more confident, grounded, and clear about how to care for myself.
Wendy doesn’t just teach herbs – she teaches trust in your own body.
— Jenni V
“My hormones were all over the place after my third child, some days I was nonfunctional.
Wendy helped me feel like myself again. Her depth of knowledge is phenomenal.”
—Maryan W.

After Week 1, I cried. The plant spirit journey was so clear, so REAL ,that I couldn’t dismiss it anymore.
By Week 4, I was literally talking to the roses in my garden and they were answering.
I sound crazy saying that, but I don’t care anymore. I know what I know.” — Sarah

Time adjustment due to UK clock change
Week 1: Reconnecting With Your Body + Meeting Your Plant Ally
Sunday, March 8Themes:
- Returning to your body after years of overriding it
- Introduction to mugwort (Artemisia) and its ancient connection to women's health
- Meeting your plant ally for this season of your life
- Opening to what your body has been trying to tell you
Focus:
We begin by coming back into your body. For many women, this is unfamiliar territory after years of pushing through, ignoring signals, and putting everyone else first.
Wendy teaches three simple rituals of reconnection that ground you in your body and attune your senses.
Then you'll take your first plant spirit journey to meet your ally. Mugwort, whose Latin name Artemisia honours the goddess who protected women through every transition. And hawthorn, used for centuries to support the heart and bring clarity.
Practice:
Live guided plant spirit journey. Nature observation walk with the question: "What is my body noticing?" Journal what you observe.
Week 2: The Sensory Tea Ceremony + Being Witnessed
Sunday, March 15Themes:
- Deep listening to your body through the senses
- How plants communicate through taste, sensation, and feeling
- Being witnessed by other women on this path
- Building trust in your own experience
Focus:
You'll share your Week 1 experiences with the circle. This is where you realise you're not alone and that every woman receives plant wisdom in different ways.
Wendy introduces the Spirit Monograph, a collaborative document of plant wisdom that your cohort will create together. One monograph for each herb (mugwort and hawthorn).
Then she teaches the sensory tea ceremony, a practice of deep attention to colour, aroma, taste, sensation, emotion, and insight. A way of letting the plant speak directly to your body.
Homework:
Your own sensory tea ceremony during the week with hawthorn. Fill out the experience template that feeds into the Spirit Monograph.
Week 3: Drawing Meditation + Receiving Wisdom Through the Body
Sunday, March 22Themes:
- Bypassing the analytical mind
- Allowing wisdom to come through your hands
- Trusting what you receive
- Seeing your experiences reflected in other women's wisdom
Focus:
You'll share your tea ceremony experiences and watch as Wendy weaves them into the Spirit Monograph alongside the voices and wisdom of your cohort.
Then you'll learn drawing as a way to communicate with plants. Artistic skill is irrelevant here. As you draw with focused attention, something opens. Wisdom flows in ways that bypass the part of you that second-guesses everything.
Practice:
Spend 20-30 minutes drawing your plant ally with music. Share any messages or insights that came through.
Week 4: Folk Tincture Making + Taking This Forward
Sunday, March 29Themes:
- Making medicine with your own hands
- The herbal actions of mugwort and hawthorn for women's bodies
- Honouring the transition from one season to the next
- Continuing this relationship beyond the course
Focus:
The practical culmination. Wendy teaches you the folk tincture method, a simple template you can use with any herb for the rest of your life.
You'll make your tincture together, live. You'll learn what your body needs as it moves through seasonal transitions and how mugwort and hawthorn support that process.
You'll receive the completed Spirit Monograph, created by your circle.
Practice:
Make your folk tincture during the session. Label it. Set it to steep for a moon cycle.
Addressing Your Quiet Concerns
"I'm exhausted. Will this be another thing that drains me?"
Wendy created this course specifically for women who are running on empty. The practices are gentle and grounding. They’re designed to fill you up, not deplete you further. You can come exactly as you are. There’s no expectation to perform or get it right.
"Will this actually help with what my body is going through?"
Mugwort and hawthorn have been used for centuries to support women’s bodies through times of transition. You’ll learn the actual herbal actions of these plants, how they work physically, and how to make medicine with your own hands. This is practical, usable knowledge alongside the spiritual connection.
"What if I can't connect with plants? What if nothing happens for me?"
Something always happens. You might be expecting a dramatic vision, but plants speak through subtle sensations, emotional shifts, and quiet knowing. Wendy will teach you how to recognise these subtler forms. And you’ll be in a circle of women having their own experiences, which helps you trust yours.
Meet Your Teacher
Wendy Dooner
Plant Spirit Herbalist
& Bestselling Author
Wendy Dooner is a medical herbalist with a BSc in Herbal Medicine, a plant spirit practitioner, and the bestselling author of Plant Spirit Herbalism.
For over 20 years, she’s been helping women reconnect with their bodies through plants.
In her clinical practice, she’s worked with hundreds of women navigating exhaustion, hormonal transitions, and the feeling of being disconnected from themselves.
She knows what it’s like to override your body for years. To push through. To put everyone else first. And she knows what it takes to come back.
Her approach brings together rigorous herbal training and plant spirit wisdom. She believes women shouldn’t have to choose between science and intuition when it comes to their own bodies.
The herbs she works with, mugwort and hawthorn, have supported women through every life passage for centuries. They’re not exotic or hard to find. They grow in hedgerows and gardens.
And they’re waiting for you.
“I absolutely loved the course. Wendy was fantastic; she’s incredibly skilled at explaining things from all angles, which I really appreciate. The course was very informative and has opened up a new world for me in plant medicines and their healing powers. It’s deepened my interest in plants and their benefits, highlighting how nature significantly aids in healing. Wendy’s expertise in this field is truly epic.”
“The Shamanic Herbalism course was an incredible way to safely dip my toe into the world of plant medicine.
Wendy made learning enjoyable. Her authentic knowledge of the topic allowed folk methods to be used in practical applications that I feel comfortable using daily.
In addition, through hands-on learning, reputable material and lecture, Wendy provided a well rounded container for all learning styles. I would recommend this course to anyone starting or fostering an already-established relationship to plants.”
“What I love most is how Dooner gives us permission to see plants the way we did as kids—as living beings we can talk to and learn from. This isn’t about complex rituals or exotic herbs—it’s about forming real relationships with plants growing in your backyard.”
“My world seemed flat until the little calendula flower outside my window waved and said, ‘Hello!’ Wendy puts into words all the experiences I’ve had with my herbal allies.”
“At first it seemed silly, but I’ve always had a love of flowers in my bones. It has brought me so much joy knowing I can communicate with something I love. I have so many new friends, and learning to connect with them beyond just the physical level has been truly mind blowing.”
“I was burned out from life, exhausted from perimenopause, disconnected from everything. This course gave me permission to stop pretending I didn’t hear the plants. Now when I work with clients, I bring plants into healing sessions—as allies, teachers, witnesses.”
Reclaim the Woman You Know You Are
Your body has been asking for your attention. It’s time to listen.
For thousands of years, women have turned to mugwort and hawthorn during times of transition. Mugwort, known as the Mother of All Herbs, and hawthorn, used for clarity and heart. These are the plants your grandmothers’ grandmothers reached for.
They’re here for you now.
Wendy is your guide. The plants are your allies. The circle of women walking this path with you will witness your return.
You’ve put everyone else first long enough.
The journey begins on March 8th, 2026.
