APPRENTICESHIP TO THE SACRED WILD

A 10-month Earth Mystery School & journey of personal healing, empowerment and transformation through:

~ folk herbalism ~

~ plant spirit medicine ~

~ seasonal living ~

~ sacred community ~

Thousands of graduates around the world say this was the most transformative year of their lives.

As seen on:

BECOME THE WISE, EMBODIED EARTH WITCH YOU WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO BE

You do not become a healer by accumulating information. You become a healer by entering into relationship — with the plants, with the Earth, with the wisdom that lives in your own body.

The Apprenticeship to the Sacred Wild is the path where you weave yourself into the mysteries, cycles of Nature and the Language of the Earth and her ancient healing plants.

You emerge as the embodied healer you were meant to be… rooted, belonging to a coven and a living lineage.

Where the language of the Earth becomes yours.

Imagine waking up knowing which plants are in season and how to use them.

Making medicine in your kitchen with those you love.

Reaching into your apothecary when your child is sick.

Praying into herbs for a grieving friend, creating ceremony and ritual that transforms worlds.

Having your community turn to you with respect as one who knows the language of the Earth.

Here, you will uncover what it feels like to be genuinely nourished and fully alive— in your body, your spirit, your relationships.

Words from our Sacred Wild community:

“A journey of remembering my truest self, of unschooling, embodied holistic herbal education and spiritual healing!”

"I finally feel like I belong — not only to a lineage of wisdom and healing, but to a community and the Earth herself.”

“I didn't just learn herbalism. I remembered who I am.”

"I am now the person in my community that I always wanted to be."

MEET YOUR GUIDE

Herbalist, Author, Earth witch, Award-winning Formulator, Activist, Teacher

Marysia Miernowska

Marysia has spent the last 15 years guiding students into deeper relationship with the Earth through folk medicine, plant spirit healing, and ancestral wisdom. She is a published author (The Witch's Herbal Apothecary), faculty at the Esalen Institute, international speaker, podcast host, and master herbalist trained across multiple healing traditions. Her work has been featured internationally in estemeed journals including the New York Times, Vogue, ABC, Reuters, the LA Times.

Marysia was first introduced to the healing herbs by her Great Grandmother in Poland. Her own healing journey brought her back to her roots and to the Wise Woman Tradition of healing. Decades later, she began teaching in her living room as a single mother.

Today, thousands of graduates around the world carry this lineage — and the living wisdom of the plants — into their homes, their communities, and the Earth.

“After guiding thousands of others who knew in their bones that life could be more magical and meaningful, I can confidently say: deepening your relationship with Nature and aligning with Earth’s natural cycles brings more health, wonder, and magick to your life. I welcome you to join us on this path of remembering our inherent belonging to the Sacred and the Wild. I can’t wait to see how you will bloom from your deepened connection to the web of life and as a carrier of Earth Medicine.”

STUDENT TESTIMONIALS

“I have been fascinated, I have been moved to tears, I've been left in awe, and I have felt so blessed to be able to access Marysia and these teachings.”

“School of the Sacred Wild has been the most life changing and learning experience of my life! I have absolutely learned more in this class and about my life in the last 10 months than I did in getting 2 degrees from Stanford!! I cannot imagine not having this class in my life.”

A group of people sitting outdoors on blankets around a central altar decorated with flowers, a carved figure, jars, and pine cones. The scene has a rustic and ceremonial feel, suggesting a gathering or celebration.

“This course is everything and MORE. Not only do you learn the properties of plants, but you attune yourself to truly commune with them and all living things. This course guides you to connect with your innate intuition. It slows you down. It acts as intense therapy. It reintroduces you to Earth. Essentially, it brings you back home. This is a highly transformative experience, mentally, physically, and emotionally, and should be a requirement for all human beings. Our world would be a much nicer place.”

Person sitting outside with eyes closed, wearing a headscarf and hoop earrings, surrounded by greenery.

“I couldn’t give a higher recommendation for a course. Life-changing self-healing and transformation will occur as Marysia lovingly guides you to reweave your connection to the rich nourishment of Earth. The value of the content FAR exceeds the cost. One workshop would cost more than the monthly payment and each month is full of videos, recipes, live gatherings, guest experts and outstanding reading. So much support is provided.
As a graduate of Marysia’s in-person apprenticeship in 2019, I found the content new & exciting, and we never stop learning from the plants in meditation. I may even do it again! Like an earth-based plant spirit gym membership it keeps me on track with the healthy practices I most need in my life. I’m so grateful.”

Person crouching outdoors next to green plants, filling a jar with leafy greens, on grass beside another jar.

“This apprenticeship opened me up in ways I couldn’t have imagined. Spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually - this course was fulfilling in every way. I think I went into it thinking I would just be learning about herbal healing, but I learned much more about myself, my process, and my own rhythm. I would tell anybody looking to deepen their connection with source, explore their relationship with nature, and embark on a journey of their inner worlds to take this course. It certainly has changed me, and I’m so pleased that it did.”
