Love of Plants

Mary is currently living in the mountains of Western North Carolina near Asheville. Her love of the plant kingdom has unfolded over many years through her relationship with food, herbs, and plant spirits. They have become spiritual allies for a multitude of modalities of support. She spends much of her time hiking, foraging, and learning about the plethora of wild food and medicine, both physically and spiritually. The plant kingdom has been instrumental in Mary’s journey of remembering herself as part of the natural world.

Mary shares with students in person, and online through short immersion classes.

Examples of areas of plant relationship Mary shares:

Food as medicine. Mary weaves her years of culinary artistry and the medicinal qualities of food as a way to nourish yourself aligned with nature’s wisdom.

Weaving nutritive tonic herbs into life as a way to prevent illness and imbalance, such as herbs that keep your immune system strong, your blood and organ systems nourished, release tension so your body can receive nourishment. She supports you to just have these infusions as a part of your lifestyle.

Identifying some of the wonderful wild spring greens, autumn wild mushrooms, and safe wild herbs for a basic apothecary you can turn to when needed.

Identifying the self-similarity between your inner landscape and the landscape around you as you unfold through the cycles, whether it is yearly, or life.

What is Plant Spirit Essence

Plant Spirit Essences are derived from a relationship between the practitioner and plant, shamanic journey to the spirit, and a reciprocal agreement for the plant spirit to offer its medicine through the medium the practitioner is providing. It is a very sacred relationship built on respect, integrity, collaboration, and love. Most often it is the plants that call the practitioner into collaboration of offering their medicine. They are eager to support us. It is not separate from a deep relationship with our Mother.

Plant Spirits address imbalances in the spirit body, and this healing works its way through all the bodies, into the physical.

How to Dose a Plant Spirit Essence

The best way to work with Plant Spirit Essences is to first feel which one is calling you. Through an inner knowing, pendulum, muscle testing, whatever your method is. Using the same method ask yes and no questions. How many drops, how many times a day, for how many days? If it isn’t clear a good general does is 7 drops, two times a day, for 21 days. It often takes 21 days to support an energetic shift. Pay attention to your dreams & life to inform you of imbalance that is being addressed. Participate in journey.

Caring For Your Plant Spirit Essence

Keep away from EMFs, heat, cold, direct sunlight. Shake bottle and squeeze dropper to wake it up. If you touch the dropper, rinse it off with warm water, so it’s not contaminated. Take prescribed dose under tongue in a clean mouth. Do not eat or drink 15 minutes before or after. For best results, place on your altar, and offer your gratitude for the support you are given. 

I made a plant spirit essence of this extraordinary plant on the recent new moon and solar eclipse. The plant spirit medicine that came through to be passed on through me is the pain of the heart. 

The core, deep seated pain of rejection. Not only from a paradigm that does not embrace our authenticity, but the pain we carry in our hearts from rejecting ourselves to conform to this old paradigm.  

Ghost Pipe has the wisdom to act as a drip system infusing our hearts with the healing energy a little at a time, so it can be fully integrated, as it dissipates the discordant energy. It starts in the heart and works its way through all the chakras, as this core rejection of self affects our empowerment, connection to our sexual creative energy, our sense of belonging, our voice, our trust in our own wisdom, and our connection to spirit. An extraordinary plant spirit ally to support freeing us from a core wound rooted within the heart.

The plant spirit medicine of this sacred cactus that wants to be shared through me is the wisdom of the heart. A beautiful, gentle Grandfather energy that connects you with the wisdom your heart carries, and the support to drop deeper into this wisdom, and surrender to its guidance.

As we navigate these challenging times with information overload, not knowing what is true, it is the wisdom of our own hearts we need to listen to.

It heals the split in the soul which manifests as separateness on all levels. And restores the intimacy between the planet and the body, restoring the recognition of both as sacred. Competition and one up/one down has run its course.

Honoring yourself is key to honoring others. Not just the side you are proud of, but the side that needs your compassion. Honoring both for yourself and others is needed in a new society. Union of both creates a new reality and restores the sacred in society.

When you are present, you can receive Divine love. When you are present in each step you can also offer it. That flow of love supports and builds the chi, like nothing else can. This plant spirit essence supports you to be present, and receive the gift of every step you take in life as Divine Love, building your life force.

She also is supporting Mother Earth. I have had a 25 year relationship with this plant spirit, and she has been an immense ally, deserving of great respect.

This plant spirit remedy is so wonderful for those who are ready to release and free their souls unto the Divine. Angel's Trumpet remedy is perfect for those seeking expression through the soul. The key words are release, surrender, and allow. The essence also helps those who are in need of spiritual re-birth. 

Hi Mary, 

I wanted to let you know how my client is doing with the Angel's Trumpet. We really settled into ''being'' with each other this week as I spent longer shifts each day to support her caregiving. She is using the essence every day and I have seen such subtle yet powerful shifts in her. The first day I met her it felt as if she were hanging on for dear life, abdominal distress, pain, stressed look on her face, not wanting any outside help. And as I have observed her this week with discussions and holding space she is joking, smiling, using less pain meds, and not using anything for anxiety. I feel her letting go to what is. Love and blessings, Lynn

   “The plant spirits began working with me right away, as I experienced shifts and expansions in my life where I had been feeling stuck and noticed that my conscious awareness had increased. I was able to free myself from a core wound within my heart and even though I have finished taking the essence, I still feel supported moving forward and realize that these plant spirits will continue to support me on my journey, for which I am grateful!” Serena Hausen

“I have had the privilege of using many of The Divine Nourishment Apothecary plant spirit essences and remedies for several years now and I wanted to share some of my experiences. Most recently, my favorite and much needed remedy is the Ghost Pipe Plant Spirit Essence. I have been healing some deep pain and heartbreak and the Ghost Pipe Medicine has been supporting this journey in such a beautiful and gentle way, providing me with a soothing ointment deep within the places in my being that have been aching and ruptured. Although it is difficult to articulate what it feels like, I will give it a try. The ghost pipe essence medicine feels just like a gentle and loving mother who is present to watch me grow and evolve and knows just when to step in and provide something and when to step back and allow me to find my own way and feel the pain and grief. Along with the above description, a visual that illustrates the effect of the Ghost Pipe Plant Spirit Essence medicine for me, is Kintsugi, the Chinese pottery repair method that fills the pottery cracks with liquid gold. With the crevices and striations, the pottery is believed even more beautiful and unique than ever before. That is how the Ghost Pipe Plant Spirit Essence feels as she works her magic within me. She is slowly and gently filling the nooks and crannies of my fractured being with warm, loving, subtle gold and the totality of this creation feels more beautiful, whole and unique than was ever possible before. With the Ghost Pipe medicine’s support along with my own committed work, I have made massive leaps forward in the evolution of my soul’s journey! Thank you Ghost Pipe Plant Spirit Essence and Divine Nourishment Apothecary! “ Sue Lukas
