Who is it for?
People of all ages, genders and associations are drawn to Shamanic practices and the Path of the Shaman. We are blessed in the British Isles with an abundant coverage of ancient woodlands and such deep heritage of being at one with the Earth, Nature, her flora and fauna. This training invites you to go deeper in your connection with some of the wisest and most potent spirits of the forest, through direct, in-person, guided communion with them in one of the most beautiful natural woodlands in the UK.
Humble and Majestic Yew is an evergreen part of the deciduous landscape of many of the older-growth forests in Northern Europe, oft on well-draining soils. Its fine, waxy needles resemble Pine, but upon closer inspection, not only do we miss the signature scent of the Pine, but also the branches are woven more densely, more intricately, less conforming to a predetermined, or predictable pattern of replication...
Yew, up close, looks like chaos itself...
Bark flaking off in flat layers, like some sort of reptilian skin, curves and twists in the slow growth of the trunk not unlike swirls of ink on the surface of water...
Overall, a masterpiece of organic creation - shaped, not only by the elements themselves, but by some preconceived intelligence that - upon aging some thousand years - actually physically turns them inside out...
As some sort of long-metaphorical advice to our own existence, they map out the Hero's wanderings, succumbing to chaos in his early days - and then a seeing through of perseverance, a definite and solid anchoring and taking up of space - and then a clearing out of one's channel, to run Divinity from head to root and back again...
Some say that the Yews are holders of Souls... certainly, without this clarity of channel, in my experience they can and do pick up the energy of whomever projects upon them - but as soon as they are clear-centred, there is an ethereal lightness of consciousness, when, combined with the ancient wisdom of thousands of years bears fruit for whomever opens themselves to this level of communion.
What to expect?
Journeywork with Yew Tree spirit is profoundly visual, profoundly somatic and incredibly instructive. Rather than necessarily showing up in personified form, although She/ He may well do, He holds a wider container for the deeper work to take place.

Expect to spend the day outside in the woodlands of the Surrey Hills AONB, with the majestic, ancient Yew Trees (estimated at 1500 years old and more). The work will be both standing, walking and lying down with the trees in communion, working with flower essences and journeywork.
The Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is really that - and much, much more...
Atop a chalk and sand-ribbed landscape, peppered with Flint (varying colours of chalcedony quartz), this area is both beautiful and historic. Bisected by the 132 degree leyline (Dragon Line), it is a powerful vortex both for plant life and fauna, as well as for seekers willing to look under the hood of creation.
Please bring a packed lunch, water/ thermos and snacks. Residential options available, please enquire.
Places limited. Directions given upon reservation.
Please note that Yew Spirit is an incredibly powerful activator and ally and we generally know deeply if we have been called into this work with Yew.

HARRIET’S WORK IS A SYNTHESIS OF FAMILY & SYSTEMIC CONSTELLATIONS, SHAMANIC PRACTICES AND ENERGY MASTERY. AS SUCH, ALL OF HER CONTAINERS SUPPORT THE ORGANIC AND ALIGNED DEVELOPMENT OF THE EMBODIED HUMAN SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE - AND ALL TAKE PLACE WITHIN THE CAPACITY OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM.
Working both online and in-person, 121, in group workshops and with Nature and her own horses (Horse Constellations), Harriet fuses the spiritual with the Human, the 5D with the 3D, the mundane with the magical to create experiences that empower her clients to think differently, make changes and resource themselves to live more full, expressive, creative and joyful lives.
