A monthly online community facilitated by
Spiritual Herbalist and Life Coach, Tracy James
From New Moon to Full Moon, we walk with one plant spirit—building relationship, restoring kinship, and tending to the sacred within and around us.
NATURE IS SENTIENT AND WISE
You are part of a living conversation with nature, an ancient dialogue that connects you to the wisdom of the Earth and the spirit of all living things.
When you truly listen, plants become more than food or medicine—they become allies, protectors, and guides, inviting you into a transformative relationship.
Reverence is a space to honor this connection, guided each month by the spirit of a different plant ally. From New Moon to Full Moon, you deepen your connection to nature through dreamwork, ritual, coaching, and shared exploration.
By slowing down, listening, and aligning with the deeper intelligence of the Earth, you come back home to your body and knowing and live in greater integrity with your gifts, purpose, and path.
To be in a state of reverence is to embody humility, awe, and respect.
This circle is an invitation to deepen reverence for the natural world, for our plant allies, for one another, and for ourselves.
With this shared intention, we contribute to the restoration of balance and a sense of collective belonging.
RESTORING KINSHIP
Our ancestors lived in greater harmony with the natural world, guided by the profound intelligence of plants and the land. They knew that healing, nourishment, and wisdom could be found through communion with nature.
Today, in our modern lives, that connection is mostly forgotten.
This practice isn't about studying the medicinal or botanical properties of plants. It's about remembering our relationship with the sentient presence of nature, through practices, rituals, coaching, and community support.
BUILDING THE BRIDGE
Each month, we focus on a specific plant ally and its unique teachings. Through the lens of nature’s intelligence and the five elements—earth, water, fire, air, and aether—we open ourselves to the ways plants speak to us through the senses: through the body, emotions, heart, mind, and spirit.
- Two Monthly Online Gatherings: Connect with the plant ally, your fellow journeyers, and receive direct coaching and mentoring from Tracy in a supportive space.
- Monthly Themes and Practices: Explore topics such as heart opening, visioning, dreamwork, guardianship and protection, ancestral healing, cultivating intuition, and shifting brain wave states, guided by the wisdom of each plant.
- Ritual and Sacred Listening: Engage in simple yet profound practices to honor the plant spirit and receive its guidance.
- Embodied Connection: Plants communicate not only through their chemical properties but also through their energetic and somatic presence. This work invites you to engage with plants in a deeply felt way—through your body, emotions, vision and subtle awareness. Tracy’s Phytosomatics approach integrates the wisdom of the plants with the intelligence of your physical and energetic self, opening pathways for profound connection and healing.
- Integration Tools: Receive a monthly guidebook with rituals, guided meditation, journaling prompts, and insights to integrate the plant’s teachings into your daily life.
- Community Support: Be held in a circle of like-hearted individuals walking this path of reconnection and reverence.
- Plant Sourcing Guidance: You will be given links to recommended sources where you can purchase the plant each month in either tea form, fresh, herbal essence, essential oil, or tincture, or you are welcome to find your own sources.
MEET YOUR PLANT SPIRIT ALLIES
In Reverence, we journey with a variety of plant allies, each offering unique guidance and energy. These plants are chosen for their ability to illuminate themes central to our growth and connection with the natural world. Through your senses and intuitive channels, we explore how the plants connect and engage.
Some of these plant allies may grow near you, offering a chance to connect more deeply with the wisdom of your local ecosystem. By working with plants rooted in your surroundings, you deepen your relationship with the land and attune to the rhythms of the spirits of place. This connection grounds the work, calling us to honor the intricate relationships that hold life in balance.
These are a few of the allies we are coming into relationship with:
- Mugwort: Guardianship and Protection – Establish boundaries, clear energy, and invite clarity through dreaming with this potent herb.
- Rose: Heart Healing and Opening – Soften into love, release grief, and embrace the beauty of vulnerability.
- Calendula: Inner Radiance and Self-Worth – Cultivate confidence and reconnect with your inner light.
- Tulsi (Holy Basil): Spiritual Illumination and Alignment – Open to spiritual clarity and align with your higher purpose.
- Rosemary: Mental Clarity and Focus – Sharpen your mind and strengthen your connection to memory and insight.
- California Bay Laurel: Grounding and Anchoring Intuition – This plant invites you to deepen trust in your inner knowing, embody your insights, and make them real in your life.
- Bobinsana: Emotional Healing and Connection – Deepen your bond with the natural world and open pathways for emotional resilience and connection.
Each of these plant allies invites us into a deeper relationship with nature, spirit, and ourselves. As we build new relationships with these plants, it's equally important to revisit and tend the ones we’ve already cultivated. Strengthening these connections month by month allows us to grow in reciprocity, respect, and alignment with sentient nature.
WHY COMMUNE WITH
PLANT SPIRITS
Plant spirits work with us where we are—whether we're seeking healing from trauma, opening up creative channels, questioning our life's direction, or feeling called to remember ancient ways of knowing. As we slow down into "plant time," this communion brings us into relationship with beings who can reflect our wholeness back to us, even when we've forgotten it ourselves.
WORKING WITH TRACY
My work with plant spirits is rooted in a profound respect for indigenous wisdom and a commitment to ethical, culturally sensitive practice.
I have experienced firsthand the transformative power of this work. My journey led me to the Peruvian Amazon, where I lived and participated in over 15 traditional plant dietas guided by indigenous curanderos from the Shipibo lineage.
These experiences, along with my own plant initiation practices, have shaped how I listen to my own knowing and to the animate spirits of nature. The challenges and grace I've encountered along the way have informed how I hold space for others to step into this sacred relationship.
With over 20 years as a life and leadership coach and 15 years in psychedelic integration coaching and shamanic practice, I bring a toolkit that bridges the mystical and practical.
As someone of mixed race and diverse sacred lineages, I deeply understand the importance of finding and walking your spiritual path in a way that honors your unique heritage and personal journey.
Drawing from these varied dimensions of experience, I hold a supportive space with guidance and practices to help you enter into your own sacred, reciprocal relationships with plant spirits as conscious beings.
The true magic unfolds when you and the plants begin to find your own sacred dialogue.
