     Flower Essence Apprenticeship

Learn the clear, systematic method of Flower Essence healing that I use in my own practice. At once practical and deeply rooted in Earth-based shamanism, this training will help you:
  • Understand how Flower Essences work and why they’re so potent for trauma release
  • Facilitate profound healing by getting to the root of emotional patterns and trauma
  • Learn the art of Shamanic journeying, plant communication, and how to attune with the plants on your own
  • Create customized formulations
  • Receive a starter apothecary of 72 Flower Essences
  • Walk away ready to work with clients immediately.

Counseling Training

Learn exceptional coaching skills so you can fully embody your role as healer.
  • Learn the fine art of questioning and listening between the lines
  • Walk your clients through their shadows
  • Hold space for others’ healing journeys
  • Skillfully express compassion without exhausting yourself by setting boundaries and practicing energetic protection
  • Learn a dialogue process that traces symptoms to their roots so you can create the perfect formula for each client, every time.

Mentorship Training

I am passionate about helping you build a sustainable, thriving business. That’s why you will learn to:
  • Bridge the practical and the mystical in your business by learning how to look to the unseen realms for direction and take action in smart, grounded ways
  • Learn how to build your clientele with people you love serving
  • Confidently put into words what you offer (and why it’s valuable) in a way that feels good to you and speaks directly to your audience
  • Honor the deep value you provide as a healer, so you can un-shame yourself around money and feel confident charging what you want
  • Understand the importance of making resonant, coherent business choices (so you don’t fall for “advice” that leads you astray)

        Personal Healing Odyssey

True healers must do their own, inner work. That’s why this training emphasizes and deeply supports your personal transformation.
  • For three months in a row, work one-on-one with an experienced, Woman Rising Flower Essence practitioner. You’ll receive three personalized Flower Essence counseling sessions (including a formulas customized just for you). This is more than mentoring: this is entirely for YOU and your own, personal growth, so you can do the work you need to do and experience for yourself the true power of working with customized Flower Essence formulas in this way.
  • Repair emotional woundings that have been holding you back in life
  • Reframe and release limiting mental beliefs and doubts keeping you stuck
  • Heal trauma held in your body and claim your role as vibrant, healing Earth Priestess Medicine Woman.

This program was everything I was looking for….

Where to begin? This is a program that really changed the way I look at plant medicine. And at the same time, it really helped me to grow and learn so much about myself.
It was a life changing experience for me.

The most valuable things I’ve learned is how powerful our intuition is and how to connect with Spirit for guidance. This insight has changed how I view the world, make decisions and connect with others. Also, I know this sounds obvious, but this program showed me how powerful Flower Essences are as a healing modality – both emotionally and physically.The retreat was amazing! This is where I really connected with the plants and flowers… and the shamanic journeys really had a tremendous impact on me. Not that I ever doubted the presence of spirit before but after my experiences at the retreat, I’m just amazed that this presence lives with us everyday, in everything and that we can connect with it. So cool! Flower essences and plant medicine are such an inspiration and I feel so grateful that I’ve found something that I feel so passionate about!

About Your Mentor

Ameya

When I was 19, a book on plant spirit medicine literally fell off of a shelf and into my hands … and I fell in love.

I was already working with herbal medicine, but I knew I wanted to go deeper: all the way to the emotional and spiritual roots of symptoms. After writing my college thesis on plant spirit medicine, I began training in this modality. It was incredible — but also incredibly complicated! I started fearing it would take me a whole lifetime to learn the system, leaving no time to share it with others.

Everything changed when I learned about Flower Essences. By sheer chance, I stumbled across a Flower Essence Practitioner training — and two days later was in New York City, training with my new teacher.

Working with Flower Essences answered so many of my deep callings in a fresh, elegant way. They were deeply rooted in Earth-based Shamanism, answering my calling to communicate with plant spirits to facilitate healing. They packed a surprisingly potent clinical punch. They were shamanic and embodied. And the system was simple enough, I could offer my community profound healing without spending a decade studying first. I knew I had found my dharma path.

Everything became real for me when I started working with Flower Essences in my own life. I was blown away by how they helped me face everything I had been spiritually bypassing. Suddenly, I was on a fast-track to healing the traumas and emotional patterns that had been holding me back (or that I’d been spiritually bypassing). The benefits manifested on emotional, spiritual, and physical levels. My exhaustion and chronic colds dissipated and I began waking up feeling vibrant and energized. Even my chronic yeast infections (which I’d tried treating with everything from acupuncture to homeopathy to Peruvian shamanism) finally resolved … along with painful menstrual cycles and a host of mother issues.

Since then, my work has taken many forms, but the core has always been Flower Essences. I have witnessed their limitless healing potential with my clients, and I know that a big part of the work I’m here to do is sharing far and wide how clinically potent Flower Essences are for healing trauma and deep emotional wounding, without toxic pharmaceuticals or endless psychological processing.

That’s why this is so much more than a program, for me.
It is my passion.

Flower Essences aren’t a magic pill — there’s no such thing, when it comes to sustainable transformation. But when you know the proper healing process (which is what this Practitioner Training teaches), Flower Essences are powerful allies that can move us forward crazy-fast, through safe, effective pathways. I am convinced they’re the Medicine our world needs right now.

For this incredible modality to bloom far and wide, we need highly integral, devoted, smart women working with Flower Essences at a masterful level. We need modern Medicine Women who are doing their own inner work and know how to create sustainable businesses, too. That’s why I created this program.

I am fiercely protective of my students and will walk beside you straight to your greatest victory. I adore the raw realness of women diving into their shadows and resurrecting themselves. I am deeply steeped in Earth-based Shamanism and my priestess lineage of Avalon. I know that the plants are the true healers, and it is our privilege to partner with them.

I LOVE this program and am proud of it in every way. It is my dream come true and profound honor to support you as you claim your place in the Medicine Woman lineage and share this powerful medicine with those who need it.

High Res Head Shot
These wonderful women will work privately with you in your one-on-one sessions and will also attend our live retreats, often sharing additional teachings.

All of these women have trained as Woman Rising Flower Essence Practitioners. They also each have their unique backgrounds, skills, and experiences to inform and expand this work.

Most importantly, each one has been devoted to her unfoldment and emotional transformation through Flower Essences for quite some time. Their depth radiates.

Heal others. Transform yourself.
Connect with the plants. Share your gifts.
Answer your calling.

A bit more about what sets this program apart …

A hybrid virtual-and-live format

You get the best of both worlds: online and in-the-flesh. Most of our work is done online, so you can learn without a plane ticket and connect to an eclectic sisterhood all over the world. But you’ll also be invited to our (optional) 3 1/2 day retreat. There’s never any pressure to attend this retreat, but if you’re able to come, these teachings (and friendships) can sink in even deeper.

Experience the power of Flower Essence Counseling

You’ll receive three private Flower Essence Counseling sessions of your very own. And frankly? These alone are worth the price of the program. By working with an experienced Flower Essence Practitioner (and receiving a customized formula, just for you), you’ll experience the power of Flower Essences for yourself. These sessions are just for you and your growth. And they’re why every single woman who’s gone through this program has called it “life-changing.”

Deepen your Earth Priestess Wisdom

Flower Essences are fundamentally shamanic, as they involve communicating with the spirit of the plant. We’ll go deep into Earth-based Shamanism and Priestess teachings so you can fortify your partnership with Gaia and allow her rhythms to support you and your clients’ healing journeys. Learn how to recognize yourself as a reflection of Nature, deeply communicate with the earth, and hear (and answer) the call of the cosmos.

Kickstart your own apothecary with 72 Flower Essences

Most other programs require you to buy Flower Essences after your training. But we think every practitioner should receive a generous starter kit. Unboxing this package is such an exciting moment!

An exceptionally rich Sisterhood

You’ll connect with us in our 13 live content calls, our additional 3 live Q&A c&lls, in active Facebook group, and in person at our (optional) retreat. You will be held, supported, and lovingly challenged for the entirety of this program — and if you choose, beyond, as part of our Collective (more on this below).

I am deeply invested in your success.
As a Sister and as a practitioner

You’ll get more than training — you’ll get a mentor. I walk my talk and care so deeply. I am invested in you being met, being treated with presence and deep caring, and having your own, bone-deep and transformational experience. I champion you on your own healing journey. That’s why I am unusually generous and available to my students. This modality is my passion, and I am so excited to share it with you.

Val Casalderrey

My prayers to learn the Flower Essences were answered and
I knew Ameya was the ONE I needed to learn from….

Since I stumbled upon Joanne Ameya online, my life has radically changed. She is the most kind, generous, and wise teacher I have encountered. A mentor, teacher, an inspiration, Priestess, Joanne has a luminous soul that has been a precious gift for me. Her devotion to her students – their learning and evolution – is admirable. I learned so much from her! The Certification Program was far and beyond anything I imagined. Having one-on-one sessions was one of my favorite parts because of what unfolded in my own healing journey. And the retreat was so in depth. A highlight. I fell in love with the plants and with Joanne even more. I am forever grateful for what I have learned and that I carry this light in the world.

A truly sacred container

for women to deepen into and remember their authentic essence…

In my Woman Rising Flower Essence Practitioner Certification Program, I felt truly held, seen, and empowered as I peeled layers away that were standing in the way of me fully embodying my divinity and acting as the channel and conduit I knew myself to be deep down. These teachings weren’t necessarily “teachings” in the traditional sense, but rather codes to help me reactivate the living wisdom that was already within my cells. The program acted as a catalyst for deep awakening in my life on many levels and I am beyond privileged and humbled to share this wisdom with my clients in my practice. Thank you, Ameya, for creating this magical container for women everywhere. May She rise and awaken through us as we remember our Truth. And so it is. Aho!

Wherever you are along your Flower Essence journey

you are welcome here

Over the past 8 years, we’ve found this program is ideal for:

  • Women who have already studied Flower Essences who want more depth and detail about how they can release trauma and emotional patterns
  • Women offering healing in other modalities — massage therapy, herbalism, acupuncture, midwifery, etc. — who want additional tools for their Medicine Basket
  • Health coaches, life coaches, and women’s health practitioners who want to help their clients move more quickly out of stuckness, plateaus, and deep-seated patterns
  • Mothers seeking natural remedies to support their children on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels — from infancy all the way through adulthood
  • Newbies who have dabbled in Flower Essences and already know: this is part of their dharma path
  • Lovers of the depths and women who are devoted to doing their own emotional healing work
  • Any woman who’s heard the call of the plants.

A deep dive into personal understanding and healing…

I feel truly grateful, honored, and ecstatic to be a part of this program.

Ameya’s course work was a beautiful mix of information, experience, integration, presence, and community. Her ability to hear and see you and meet you in a moment to shed light, offer a question for further inquiry within, and sprinkle seeds of love and wisdom to be received has been a breath of fresh air and so deeply appreciated. Working with the Flower Essences personally has allowed for me to dive deeper into personal understanding and healing of old wounds, patterns and beliefs and in turn I have been able to share this potent “medicine”/modality with clients, friends, and family. The results have been phenomenal. Clients are working through both major and minor challenges, transitions, transformations, and deep healing with support to the spiritual, emotional, mental and physical bodies. If you are looking for and to embody “the more” within you, Ameya holds a beautiful, powerful, sacred, safe space for you to dive in and do the work in supported way with a group of conscious Woman who support and show up in Sisterhood with one another.

This program transformed my life…

I joined this program because, well, I like to say it was the flowers calling to me.

I felt very certain that I needed to do this program. And then when I spoke with Joanne, I felt so incredibly safe and I was sure that she would be the right teacher for me. This program has changed my life – personally and also professionally. It has given me clear direction about the way that I want to incorporate healing work and film in my life and …. It is making me a different person. Also, the community of women that was created has become very important. I am certain some of these women – if not all – will be lifelong close friends. Thank you so much!”

Questions and Answers to Consider…

Can I still heal others if I’m not perfect?

Yes, oh, yes. The beautiful thing about being a leader at this time is knowing that we are all, always works in progress. The best practitioners understand what they’re inviting others to go through … because they’ve done (and continue to do) their own deep work on themselves.

How much time do I need to devote to this program?

Each week, we have a 90-minute weekly teaching call and some homework. On average, plan on spending two or three hours per week on this program.

We know life gets busy, so we’ve woven spaciousness right into the program with implementation weeks. Our rhythm is: 3 weeks of content, 1 week off. That way, if you’ve missed a call or gotten a little behind, you have the time to catch up … or simply take time to integrate and go out into nature. This is our way of helping you avoid overwhelm and supporting you in creating healthy, natural rhythms.

What happens when the program is over?

I am fully committed to helping you become a masterful Flower Essence practitioner and build a sustainable business. I’ve included everything I can pack into this program to help you get there, but the support doesn’t stop there.

At the end of the program, you will have the option to continue with our certification process and join our Collective. This is completely optional! But if you join the roughly 60% of women who choose to be certified, you’ll also enjoy tons of ongoing support, including regular educational calls, being listed on our practitioner directory, discounts on Woman Rising programs and Flower Essence sets, and connecting with a whole community of women devoted to being amazing Flower Essence practitioners.

I’d love to do this … but what if it’s a huge financial stretch for me?

I understand. Even though we hear over and over again from students that this program is worth far more than what we charge for it, many of the women who are called to this program are just starting their journey into right livelihood — making a living sharing their gifts and serving others — and it’s a big financial reach for some of them.

If you are called and this is truly your time, you can make anything happen. Because this training is so intimate, we can customize payment plans just for you.

But what it really comes down to is timing. If you know you’d love to do this program but just don’t have the resources, wait until when we offer it next year. Please do not exert undue pressure on yourself or over-extend yourself if you truly don’t have the resources for this.

Touch into your own timing. If you have heard the calling … If now is your time to answer it … It would be our honor to welcome you.

I was looking to help people heal themselves.

I didn’t realize I would come out so dramatically transformed myself…

I was drawn to this program because out of all of the flower essence trainings available, I found the Woman Rising curriculum the most comprehensive. Going into the program, I was looking to help people heal themselves. I didn’t realize I would come out so dramatically transformed myself. The program has taught me how to heal painful events from my past, establish boundaries, and step out as a practitioner and I’ve doubled my business income. I would recommend this training with my whole heart and soul!

Our world is afire with chaos and possibility.

These are the crucial, crumbling, exciting times that will be spoken of for generations to come.
We have the power to change the world. Now.
To be the revolutionaries our great-grandchildren will honor.
To follow our truths.
To re-weave the threads.
To usher ourselves and our world into wholeness.
To be the changemakers.

Now is the time.

If you’re ready to transform your compassion into sacred activism …
If you want highly transformational tools in your medicine basket …
If you’ve heard the call to use plant medicines …
If you’re ready to become a healer and Sacred Activist ….
If you’re ready to do your own radical healing …
If you’re ready to step into the next phase of your sovereignty and priestess power …
If you’re ready to offer your love and service to others, yourself, and the Earth …
If you’re excited and maybe a little nervous …

Join us.
