I recently completed The 50-hour Somatic Plant Medicine Facilitation and it exceeded every expectation I had. Originally when I signed up I thought it would just be about how to hold sacred space but it was much more than that.
This program completely changed the way I understand healing, coaching, and therapeutic presence.I learned how to slow down, create safety, trust the client's inner wisdom, and hold space in a way that allows real transformation to unfold, while also learning about my owner inner healing and nervous system.
Atira is an incredible teacher,mentor, and human. Her depth of knowledge, compassion, and ability to model presence are unlike anything I've experienced. The SIBAMS framework and somatic practices are practical, powerful, and immediately applicable, while also honoring the complexity of trauma, the nervous system, and plant medicine integration. She lays out the resouces that are very easy to implement and work with.
What impacted me most was my own personal transformation. The program challenged me to look at my own patterns, develop greater self-awareness, and become more grounded and authentic in how I show up for others and more how I show up for myself. I left not only with new skills, but as a different person looking to continue to grow and protect this sacred space.
If you're looking for a trauma-informed, heart-centered program that will deepen both your personal growth and your ability to support others, I cannot recommend Atira Tan's training highly enough. It has been one of the most meaningful educational experiences of my life, and I am incredibly grateful to have been part of it and cannot wait to continue with more of her trainings
