Herbal Medicine Making
This class is an introduction to herbal medicine making. We will focus on making tinctures and herbal infused oils. Spend a day playing and listening to the plants – and come home with a treasure chest full of awesome green medicine.
We will start off the day with a hands on plant walk . I will take you around the Center on a magical plant tour revealing to you 25 + everyday herbs that are probably growing right around you.
We will play some plant games. Get to know the plants through multi-sensory connections. And you will receive direct intuitive input on the medicines for you to make.
In addition, we will go over all the basics you will need to make and be able to use your own tinctures and herbal infused oils.
You will come away with a real appreciation of herbal medicine as the medicine of the People.

About the class:
In this class, you will identify your Birth Colors and draw your personal Earth Energy Chart. Your Personal Earth Energy Chart acts similar to an astrological chart but instead of being based on the stars it is based on your entry point onto this Earth.
Your Earth Energy Chart reveals your Mission Walk – the purpose you for which you came to this earth. Your Mission Walk defines the special gifts, talents, and objectives you brought in with you when you chose to incarnate in this lifetime. Your Earth Energy Chart also reveals your latent talents – those aspects of yourself that you are here to develop and evolve.
The Earth Energy Chart helps you answer the question “What is My Mission in Life?” It helps you determine and direct your Mission in Life by learning your Gifts of Birth and how the gifts are used to develop your Latent Talents. These gifts do not change, just as your birthday does not change.
Twylah Nitsch has consolidated the Wisdom, Prophecy, and Philosophy of the Ancient Senecas into a study of self-awareness based upon one’s Gifts of Birth.

October 2009
Mid-Life Awakening
A multi-dimensional approach to creative transformational living mid-life that supports you in conjuring, crafting, and creating this new life of your dreams.
In this class, we will use intuition, multi-dimensional accessing, natured centered healing, Wisdom Councils, and Sacred Craft to begin the self-initiation into True Adulthood.
Midlife is the turning point to living a whole new kind of life. Midlife invites you to reclaim your conscious awareness that you are magical and you can live a magical life.
But you don’t just wake up one day and find yourself tripping in the magic fields of life – it takes some conscious expansion to pass through each of the necessary initiation gates.
This workshop leads you to reveal to yourself the initiatory stage you are approaching and offers you a multi-dimensional pathway that will lead you through that gateway to your next threshold.
We will spend the day in a natural setting working with the spirit and guidance of nature.
Anchored in a Wisdom Council of Elders, we will access your intuitive and multi-dimensional awareness, plus your dreams and sensory consciousness, to unearth those magical dreams (and steps to those dreams) that are your gifts to not only yourself – but also to the world.
As the dream sharpens and comes into focus, you will be guided in crafting the representative of the power of this dream in a Sacred Power Wand.
It will be a magical day - all crafted to open the portal to yourself and your New Life at Mid-life.

Consider this :
This gift of mid-life and beyond is a shining, wonderful gift full of magic and possibilities.
What are you going to do with it?
- Do we stay drudging through a life we have outgrown?
- Do we retire to sit in the study while we wait for ourself to slowly come to a halt?
- Do we pick up some old dream that got tossed by the wayside and try and make it happen even though it has no heart any more?
How dreary can this be!
You have years and years in front of you.
If you’ve had a wonderful life and every one of your dreams came true - then it is time to create another life of your dreams.
If you’ve had a crappy life and not one of your dreams got through into reality – or you are pretty sure you don’t have any dreams - then it is about time you created a dream.
At this age of your life you don’t have to stake out your territory like you did in your 20s or hurry up to reach your major life goals before you are “too old” like you did in your 30s.
No, your task now is much more interesting. After you get over the shock that everything in your life comes up for a major reevaluation you realize that you have landed in a new level of consciousness. Your task in your 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond is to take this new level of consciousness and embrace an expanded involvement with the world as you get to know yourself more intimately and deeply.
The time has come to live the adventures you dream of – and to find the dreams for your adventures. You are now in the time of your life where -like never before- you can do what you want and be who you want.
Imagine living your life as the adventure that you sometimes dare to dream about. What if you actually had the choice to create your life the way you want to?
Well, you do. You already have the power to create the life you want– you just may not know about it yet. Or you know it but have not been able to tap into it yet. Or you know it and want to take it further.
I know that at mid-life everything changes – your health, your feelings, what you think, what you do, your hopes and dreams, how you view the world and your place in it – even who you thought you were changes.
But instead of all those changes marking just an end to an era let them become an incredible opportunity for infinite possibilities of new beginnings.
It is time to take this incredible gift of years ahead of you and make it into your dreams come true.
It is time to dream something different and better for yourself.
It is time to claim your magic and live that magical dream that is tucked away inside of you … or go and unearth those magical dreams that have been buried under the avalance of stuff.
It doesn’t matter if you are …
- Happy or sad.
- Alone or supported.
- Old or older.
- Healthy or not.
- Afraid or courageous.
- Disappointed or excited.
- Tired or vibrant.
Wherever you are you can find your way to yourself and you can create your “new life at mid-life”.
At this stage of your life, you are beginning the longest period of adulthood and often the most fulfilling.
I invite you to choose to be the magic you are and live the adventure of your dreams.
