Retrain your body and your nervous system to absorb the healing power of plants through your senses and your awakened intuition — as you gain powerful insights into your current wellness and discover the exact steps to support your healing and transformation.
Experience initiations into the wisdom of plant spirits in practical and mystical ways as you journey into their hidden messages and healing qualities through plant communion rituals.
Becoming fluent in the language of plant spirit medicine isn’t something you can achieve simply through book learning or lecture. It’s an art and a skill you cultivate through direct experience with the plants themselves — by learning to communicate with them and embodying their messages — and we ALL have that ability encoded within us.
Clinical herbalist, homeopath, and initiated priestess Seraphina Capranos has created a unique and effective system of absorbing the transformative teachings of plant spirits through a process she calls a plant communion practice — a sensual ritual of touching, smelling, and tasting a plant, and absorbing its wisdom.
It’s a complex, multi-layered approach that reveals often surprising information about what’s happening inside you — physically, yes, but also, it can evoke deeper experiences of memory, unresolved trauma, and blocked emotions and energies.
When these are released, it can result in profound shifts, including an expanded sense of vitality... a greater feeling of aliveness... a deeper connection to your inner guidance system and wisdom... a stronger relationship with your spiritual guides and ancestors... the release of mental anguish and stress that you can’t make sense of on your own... and a more flexible and relaxed nervous system — providing you with the ability to reset, relax, and find your equilibrium more easily.
It’s a method that enables you to reap profound benefits from plants by opening your heart to their timeless wisdom, tuning into the information they’re offering you through the intuitive hits you receive and the somatic and energetic responses of your own body.
Seraphina is a delightful and deeply spiritual teacher and healer, whose connection with plant spirits has been embedded in her since childhood, having grown up in a home that thrived on the medicine of herbs.
On the scientific side, she’s trained in herbalism and homeopathy. For her spiritual approach, she apprenticed in Toltec shamanism for 10 years and became an initiated priestess in the Reclaiming Tradition of witchcraft, which was co-founded by Starhawk. She also has innate and finely tuned psychic skills.
Seraphina has taught workshops and classes, counseled one-on-one with clients for two decades, and is a highly skilled and intuitive guide.
Join her on a 7-week live video journey, in which you’ll not only learn the scientific medicinal properties of seven sacred plants. ..
... she’ll also guide you through a plant communion practice with each of them — one every week — providing you with plenty of time to slow down and delve into an intimate relationship with the plants as your personal teachers.
The plants you’ll be working with during this program include:
- Rose — to resolve heartache and grief as you open to more love in your life, create effective energetic boundaries, cultivate a strong and radiant auric field, and reduce inflammation
- Holy Basil (or Tulsi) — to stay grounded while you open to your spiritual guides, balance your endocrine system, increase your strength and resilience, and reduce exhaustion, burn-out, and depletion
- Milky Oats — to replenish (and protect) your inner well of radiant energy, replenish your creative force, and cultivate more love, abundance, and luck in your life
- Rosemary — to refine your intuition and deep knowing, improve your gut health, balance your mental health, and improve your memory and cognition
- Mugwort — to ritualize rites of passage, enhance your dreamtime, work with your shadow, and release and transform what needs to be healed
- Elecampane — to cultivate relationships with your loving ancestors, understand your purpose and direction, establish strong psychic boundaries, and improve your digestion
- Pine — to build self-confidence, grasp your self-worth, dissolve worry, gain an understanding of why you’re here on Earth, and improve your respiratory health
You’ll notice what happens in your body, heart, mind, and psyche as you work with the plants, and open to the messages they have just for you about your health, emotional needs, energetic blockages, spiritual evolution, and the healing you require.
To begin the rituals, Seraphina will lead you into a gentle, trance-like state that enables you to receive the plants’ teachings through your own body and senses.
As she believes that we ALL have a plant healer in our lineage, Seraphina will prompt you to call in that wise healer guide to support you through each journey.
You’ll be invited to notice the plants’ tactile qualities and their scent, and, as you finally taste them, your taste receptors will send information to your nervous system. In that relaxed state, you’ll experience an opening through your subtle body, where the insights from the plant can flood your system with the scientific medicinal virtues of the herb as well as the energetic messages that you need to hear.
These are common plants you can find on your own spice rack or in your garden — and Seraphina will provide you with resources on where to find them easily and inexpensively. You’ll also learn practical skills for harvesting the plants and what parts to use for your unique needs.
Seraphina calls this healing practice a “tonic for the nervous system.” It’s designed to uncover and awaken your enlivened sensations, training your nervous system on a physiological level, so you can remember how to listen to the wisdom that’s indigenous to your own body.
You’ll actually be training your nervous system to be in that receptive space, taking the foot off the accelerator so your body can reorganize itself around healing and restoration.
In this unique, healing, and experiential program, you’ll:
- Discover how accessible, common herbs can be healing plant spirit teachers, and how working with them can help you deepen your relationship with the subtle art of plant medicine
- Experience the plant communion practice, designed to help you connect with your body and its subtle language — so you can better understand your body’s symptoms and persistent patterns
- Receive immediate and direct benefits, including intuitive messages, from 7 sacred plants and realize that one of the best ways to learn anything is through your body!
- Feel how the plant is working directly in your body, using traditional methods of taste and body sensations and bypassing complex analytical study
- Become deeply connected with your own inner wisdom as you connect with the teachings of nature — so you know you’re always resourced from within through your own intuition
- Discover how plants can act as a mirror of your own health and wellbeing
- Gather invaluable and easily digestible information through weaving together of traditional plant wisdom and modern science, and homeopathy and herbalism
- Reveal what’s happening on the physical level, as well as the spiritual and mystical levels in your own being
- Discover how plants can educate your nervous system and energy body
- And much more...
Seraphina demystifies plant communication and shows us how developing our skills gives us the power, agency, and skill to use our own bodies as a diagnostic tool and to test whether a plant is good for us in a particular moment.
You, too, can be initiated into each of these plant’s sage secrets — and carry that knowledge with you as you continue to work with herbs in the future.

From a deeply relaxed, receptive state, you’ll allow the spirit of rose to enter your body — and you’ll learn how to clear your emotional heart... reduce inflammation... and develop a strong, radiant auric field that has the necessary strength, protection, and perfect permeability to let all kinds of love into your life.

Holy basil shows us how to stay grounded in our body while opening up to spiritual guidance, and it teaches us how to be of service to the Earth and all her inhabitants.
Much of our mental suffering comes from living mostly in our heads. While our intellect is important, being cut off from our physical body and our spiritual connection leads to depression and depletion.
Holy basil is a powerful teacher that can show you how to be embodied while remaining connected to your spiritual heart and your mind. This is also a balancing herb for your endocrine system, which increases your strength and resiliency.
In this module, you’ll discover:

While the modern person can suffer from excess, most of us are also depleted. This depletion has us reaching for stimulants, superfoods, and the latest dietary trend.
The spirit of oats reveals deep and powerful teachings about how to truly replenish your inner well of radiant energy, drawing upon timeless wisdom and simple yet powerful practices.
In this class, you’ll:

Rosemary helps us reach back through the arc of time to connect with the lineage keepers of these plant medicine pathways.
You’ll learn how to open to their guidance and their messages — and what they want you to know.
This week, you’ll:

You may have mental anguish and stress that you can’t make sense of on your own. This is where herbs such as mugwort can be tremendously helpful.
Drawing on the strength and wisdom of plants to embark on shadow work brings an element of grace and ease, because they know how to move and transform what needs to be released.

Connecting with healthy, loving ancestors can help you make sense of your life and enrich it beyond what you may have imagined.

Trees are among the oldest living beings on the planet. They hold profound silent wisdom, and they love when humans open our hearts to them. They’re living libraries, and they hold secrets about life.

What People Are Saying About Seraphina Capranos...
Seraphina is incredibly knowledgeable, generous, and patient as a teacher and mentor. She is a truly gifted storyteller, and in every lesson she freely shares her deep wisdom as well as all of her practical tips and tricks. She takes great care to make sure you understand all of the material and complexities. I learned so much by being introduced to herbs one at a time, tasting them, making medicine with them, using them as food and growing them. I feel as if I have just scratched the surface of what is possible and I now have the framework I need to apply to any herb I wish to work with.
Grounded in foundational wisdom, Seraphina is a pillar for all called to this work. Whether it be an intimate ritual or a large community gathering, her authentic presence holds space for that which needs to be healed, rebirthed, and spoken in these crucial times. She has a gift of bringing out the potential in her students. I am in awe at the growth I witness in myself from her teachings in both magic and herbalism over the past three years. My life perspective has shifted from seeing myself as a passive recipient to old stories and a broken system that fails us, to a knowing creatix remembering she walks the path of truth-seeking, here to shift things up by creating new programs and inspiring others to find their inner magic. Seraphina is an amazing gift to all who are blessed enough to find her.
Seraphina is incredibly wise and alchemizes her experience spanning several decades as a third-generation herbalist, ritualist, herbal educator, and homeopath. As a beginner in the world of plant medicine, I have often felt intimidated by this path. However the way Seraphina weaves the essence and magic of plants with the science of herbal medicine has helped me find my confidence and clarity in working with herbs. As a student of hers since 2015, I truly feel that her unique approach to teaching, her invitational leadership style, and her sacred guidance creates a foundation of wisdom I always carry in my heart.
Attending Seraphina’s programs is nourishing in so many ways. The plant journeys and centering exercises help me come into my body and be open to the sensations and layers of sensitivities in my whole organism. The depth, dedication, and knowledge that Seraphina has for her work is truly inspiring and highly supportive. This class is rich, nourishing, healing, and educational.
The opportunity to study with Seraphina Capranos is a potent gift. Not only does Seraphina bring a wealth of knowledge and wisdom from her many years of experience as a herbalist and homeopath, she also weaves in folklore, magic, history, spirituality, and meditation while remaining connected to the practical. Seraphina has shown me how to deepen my relationship to plants in an intimate way and has inspired me to deepen my knowledge even more.

Herbalist and author
About Seraphina Capranos
EDIT
Seraphina Capranos is a clinical herbalist, homeopath, and initiated priestess with over two decades of practice. Her journey onto the healing path was inspired by her mother, a healer herself. Like many cast onto the path of healing and spiritual training, pain and suffering led her into the dark wood to seek the answers to life’s big questions.
An injury that left her bedridden with debilitating pain as a teenager set her on a spiritual quest, which intensified a few years later with the sudden tragic death of her father. At the age of 14, Seraphina began learning alchemical practices from shamanic practitioners she met by chance. From 16 to 18, she apprenticed with a medical intuitive, then embarked on the priestess path in 1998 at the age 19. She spent 10 years in a Toltec apprenticeship, which radically shifted her perceptional world.
Considered one of Canada’s leading herbalists, Seraphina is sought after to teach at conferences and international symposiums. Considered an “OG,” she has mentored many of today’s up-and-coming herbal teachers and product developers and has influenced many popular brands and formula makers. She has also developed, written, and taught curricula for some of the largest herbal schools in North America.
Seraphina has been lauded as “a young Elder” by Rosemary Gladstar, North America’s Godmother of Herbalism, with whom she has collaborated since 2021. Regarded as a “teachers’ teacher,” Seraphina’s unique blend of gifts straddles the vast worlds of plant medicine, homeopathy, ritual, and ceremonial magic.
Seraphina, who has been in clinical practice for 20 years, is known for her heart-centered, generous teaching style that speaks to multiple ways of learning.
