Imagination & Intuition: Living In Meaningful Relationship to Nature

About This 3 Part Series:

Earth-School facilitators Marguerite Uhlmann-Bower & Miki offer this 3 part series for the resetting of our somatic intelligence. This training helps

jump-start or further define our ability to identify the impressions we are detecting from plants, trees, soil, rivers, earth, storm spirits, microbes, and spirit guides to learn the intimate language that re-dresses conditioned human-exceptionalism: to become the Earth relatives we truly are.

Day One: June 28, 2026: 2:00 TO 5:00 P.M.

Unlock an ancient vocabulary and feeling sense through patterns, tastes, textures - the energetics and elements of all in relation to all. Explore theories of excess and deficiency, Doctrine of Signatures, Ayurvedic constitutions, and the energetic model, and how these present in us and in the landscape. 

Day Two: July 26, 2026: 2:00 TO 5:00 P.M.

Liberate our innate wisdom through somatic experience. Learn to expand and integrate our nature sensing vocabulary. Work with the elements and the somatic body to express through taste, texture, sound, scent, temperature, color, edges, lines, borders, liminal forces, and beyond, and inform the pulse, senses, limbs, organs, states of being, and kinesthetic body to transpersonal body impressions. 

Day Three: September 25, 2026: 2:00 TO 5:00 P.M.

What do we do with all this? On this day, we’ll apply the first two classes tools and techniques, and add Centering to Deep Listening (combined practices of Jose Silva, Mind Valley, Stephen Harrod Buhner, Thomas Mayer, EarthSchool) and collectively begin ‘deep articulation’ with the nature impressions we are detecting. Through shared dialogue we apply the first two classes tools that bring us Earth relations awareness.  

Each class: 

     - takes place for the most part, outdoors

     - applies 3, 2, 1 Deep Centering technique

     - relates plant & tree wild medicine making and food identification

     - invites pause to make the invisible, visible

     - works relationally to restore body intelligence

     - has electronic handouts, some paper handouts, pre-reading &/or podcasts

Sliding Scale Fee Per Class (or All 3 Classes): 

Tier 1 - per class $25.00 (or for all 3 classes-> $75.00)

Tier 2 - per class $35.00 (or for all 3 classes-> $105.00)

Tier 3 - per class $45.00 (or for all 3 classes-> $135.00) 

Instructor: Miki

Miki Also is a student of Earth, recognizes there is a life force in all of creation, and creates art to alchemize the seen and unseen. She is a graduate and now co-facilitator of the Cultivating Cognitive Agility with Plant, Tree and Nature Allies training program, apprentice to Plant medicine person Marguerite Uhlmann-Bower, and co-creator of We Are All Kin: a community re-sensitizing and recovering intuition. She is an imperfect being, remembering to listen to the original voices of Mother Earth so we may come back into relationship with all life. 

Instructor: Marguerite Uhlmann-Bower

Marguerite is a mother and lover of Earthist ways, a Clinical Herbalist educator & facilitator for Plant Pioneers. As a wild foods forager and plant medicine maker, she listens for, and is guided by, with consent, the voice of more than human kin. The depth of her work relies on this awareness: remembering our place with Nature-that-surrounds-us, aligning with and redressing and reframing our relational worldview through Cultivating Cognitive Agility trainings and mentorship programs. Marguerite offers: “as we remember that the-Nature-that-surrounds-us is equally our family, this is when we begin to treat all beings rightly, as good relatives.” www.PlantPioneers.org for more info.
