Five Week Workshop on Thursdays, 2:00-3:30 pm Eastern, beginning April 16th, 2026. Details Below

In this live, online, experiential workshop, you’ll be gently guided onto the forest floor — into the luminous, fleeting world of spring wildflowers. We will not meet them as mere harbingers of spring beauty, but as ancient, sovereign beings whose lineage stretches back over 150 million years with stories to tell and wisdom to share. These are flowers who rise through last year’s leaf litter to announce that life is returning again.

Blending science, imagination, and reverence, we’ll explore how wildflowers speak to us and support our unfolding—especially in times of collective uncertainty. As they emerge in precise and mysterious timing, they carry profound teachings about resilience, collaboration, and trusting the rhythms of light and life.

This is a space to awaken your intuitive senses, deepen your joy, and remember the ancient bond between humans and the flowers who have always loved us, shaping the very world we inhabit.

In a cultural moment saturated with noise and fear, returning to the wildflowers offers something radically grounding. They do not rush. They do not dominate. They rise, blossom, and return again again to the dirt. Their intelligence is relational; their strength communal. And they want to share it with us.

Through story, science, guided practices, and shared experience, we will explore how flowers are the elders who midwifed us into this world and want to nurture us still. Together we will gently, slowly, and convincingly step into their world and begin shifting from talking about flowers in third person to welcoming them into our conversations as respected elders.

The wildflowers are returning. They are asking us to remember.

“This is a powerful and unique workshop. I really welcomed this opportunity to follow my intuitive passion for flowers. Mary provides a space for didactic information, group discussion and experiential learning to help participants come to know these amazing, ancient beings and our relationship with them in a way that was fulfilling and had me wanting more!” – Merryl

In this course, you will:

• Develop a felt sense of our deep evolutionary love story with flowers and understand how they are our elders who have helped shape the living world we share with them today.
• Learn how to receive guidance from the flowers and trust the intuitive pathways through which they communicate.
• Explore recent science on plant intelligence, collaboration, and interspecies communication in an intriguing and digestible way.
• Reexamine the story of human exceptionalism and open to a wider understanding of intelligence in the living world.
• Practice imagination and intuition as legitimate relational tools for engaging the more-than-human world.
• Be gently guided through a step-by-step process for connecting with a flower ally and receiving guidance and support for your daily life.
• Deepen awe and wonder for the intricate webs of collaboration that hold our ecosystems together.
• Receive vibrant visual presentations, handouts, a bibliography, and worksheets to support continued exploration beyond the course.
• Gain a greater understanding of why reverence for our natural world is key to our future.
• And much more…

The flowers are speaking, asking us to remember and resurrect our entwined evolutionary love story.

Session One: Emergence – Wildflowers and the Return of the Light. With the guidance of the spring ephemerals, we will explore our long evolutionary story with flowers and how they have dreamed us into being over the eons.

Session Two: Listening on the Forest Floor – How the Wildflowers Speak. We will explore the science of plant intelligence – how plants communicate and connect with us and the world around them.

Session Three: Trusting the Bloom – Desire, Timing, and Inner Knowing. Exploring and practicing how our heart’s desires, intuition and imagination are key tools for connecting with the flowers and all the non-human world.

Session Four: Crossing the Threshold – Beginning the Living Conversation. Learn the step-by-step process to meet and receive guidance from your chosen flower.

Session Five: The Returning Light Within – Receiving Wisdom from your Flower Elder: In this session, we bring it all together with a guided meditation, the full uninterrupted process and collective group sharing.

“Flower lovers unite! I always sensed the flowers were a powerful presence in our human experience, and this workshop wove together both science and mystic tradition in a way that helped to contextualize and anchor what my intuition already sensed — deepening my love for the flowers over and over again, week after week. It was a rich and vibrant journey where we explored, in collective space, the aliveness of the flowers. Mary is a wise, kind, and generous guide who truly speaks for the flowers. I feel blessed to have gotten to participate in this beautiful experience” – Terry

“While I have worked with essential oils in a similar vein to Mary’s path, becoming mindful and heartful of the actual flower was a revelation. Mary draws heart-centered, open people into her sphere and that makes the class even more potent. I loved the blend of history, science, and intuition.” -Lori

“This class opened my eyes to the evolutionary history of flowers and their capacity to communicate clearly with us if we listen. Mary is a knowledgeable and sensitive teacher, encouraging and supportive, and provided many opportunities for class interaction. I recommend this class highly. – Carolyn

Each workshop will be limited to 20 participants to allow depth, intimacy and shared exploration. All sessions are recorded. We gather on Zoom, and a private community space will be available for sharing reflections and images of your flower encounters. Workshop fees are non-refundable.
