The Sacred Foundations of Plant Medicine Work
BEYOND PROTOCOL
A 6-month online training for therapists, practitioners and facilitators who feel called to hold plant medicine and psychedelic-assisted work with greater reverence, humility and spiritual depth. This is not another certification to add to your name. It is a living study in ceremony, reciprocity, Indigenous wisdom, prayer, ethics and the unseen dimensions of healing.
Are you ready to support deep, transformational spaces?

Introduction and Anchoring
What to expect — building our altar, setting our framework, building our foundation to grow through this course. Meeting one another and understanding how we will collaborate through this journey together.
Language of the Sacred
Invites us into the subtle art of speaking about mystical and non-ordinary states without reducing them to pathology or performance. Jill guides us in cultivating language that honours the ineffable — helping us meet mystery with reverence, nuance, and presence, both in our personal journeys and when supporting others.
Humility and Unlearning
Liza will share her journey with cultivating these devoted relationships with humility, patience, and generosity, and how this is intertwined with clinical consciousness and our collective duty to serve. She will explore various processes of unlearning deeply ingrained entitlements that can hinder more profound understandings of plant medicines.
Indigenous Relationships to Land, Self and Community
By focusing on reciprocity as a way of life, we will explore the ways in which Indigenous people of all times and places have practiced relationship to the land and all the elements that create life. We will end by guiding and encouraging land acknowledgement and reconciliation for an aware, ethical and sustainable practice.
Ceremony as Safety
Ceremony is safety - Why ceremony creates the structures we need to practice energetic and psychological safety. Why and how harm is caused without these structures, and how we can strengthen our practice by understanding this technology.
Sacred Medicine: Peyote and Navajo Healing Traditions for Trauma Recovery
An introduction to the sacred role of peyote in Navajo (Diné) healing traditions, with a focus on its connection to trauma recovery. This session explores how myth, ceremony, and community restore balance, coherence, and hope.
Cosmovisions
An exploration of the worldviews that shape how we relate to life, spirit, and the unseen. Rooted in Indigenous wisdom, this session invites us to step outside the Western lens and into a relational, multidimensional understanding of reality.
Prayer and the Plant Medicine Field
Grandmother Margaret guides participants into the heart of prayer — as structure, as safety, as sacred dialogue with Spirit. Her presence is one of grace, ancestral connection, and gentle power, reminding us that true healing begins when we return to right relationship with our roots, the land, and the great mystery that breathes through all things.
Connecting to Our Indigenous Heart and Lands
A journey through Druidry, Paganism, and the deep history of sacrament in Western European lands—and what it means to reclaim indigeneity by cultivating practice within the living landscapes we call home.
Grief and Death
Exploring our collective relationship to death and grief — how do we support ourselves as facilitators to reestablish and strengthen conscious relationships to nature, death and grief? What role can psychedelics and plant medicines play in preparing us for death and in assisting us in working with grief more holistically?
Decolonising Psychedelic Care
n invitation to look honestly at how power, privilege, and cultural appropriation show up in the psychedelic field. Together, we'll reflect on what it means to honour source traditions, centre Indigenous voices, and walk with humility as stewards, and not owners of this sacred work.
Conclusion, Integration and Closing Ceremony
Where do we go from here? What do mentorship pathways look like? Going forth and establishing our future accountability. Looking at our future commitments.
Reflections From Our Community
This is not a 'how to run a ceremony' course, and yet it is also just that. We cannot heal with medicine alone, or with prescribed instruction, but with collective wisdom.
Victoria B.
Psychotherapist
I've received deep wisdom from the speakers on this course. There is no simple solution offered, instead a courageous inquiry into plant medicine, its practices and its outcomes, where not knowing is as valuable as knowing.
Peter B.
Programme Participant
My experience has exceeded my expectations. Indigenous teachers share hard-to-find wisdom from direct experience as healers in a wounded world, reminding us that healing lives within justice, community and the interdependence of individual and collective care.
Tema O.
Author & Activist
As a licensed therapist with formal training in psychedelic therapy, Be The Medicine offered me a rare and meaningful opportunity to unlearn some of the assumptions that come with clinical training. The programme gently but powerfully re-centred the sacred, relational and ancestral roots of this work—reminding me that these medicines have long existed within traditions of reverence, community and deep listening. Rather than approaching the experience through a purely clinical lens, I was invited to step back into humility and remember that our role is not to "own" this work, but to honour and steward it with care.
