We live on an abundant planet, literally the garden of Eden. Heaven on Earth. No one part is more important than another and all parts are interconnected—a multi-dimensional, ever expanding spiral—where there is no beginning and no end.

Awareness of this interconnection and being in harmony with others is how we, step by step, heart by heart, courageously walk the path home to our collective joy and well being.

I’d like to invite you to experience the Soulflower Sanctuary—a magical, cocreation with Nature—that I have been stewarding since 2010. It is into this beautiful garden that I go for peace, for solace, for the very connection I speak of above and it is here that I have nurtured the land and the Soulflowers that have nurtured me.

The Soulflower Sanctuary is a collaborative, constantly evolving garden where all the residents, seen and unseen, are cocreating a healthy, diverse, and beautiful landscape—a vibrant, living sanctuary for all.  The garden is a private, suburban, mostly wooded acre in Yarmouth, Maine, and is home to many birds, animals, insects, nature spirits and nearly all of the Soulflowers in my Soulflower Plant Spirit Oracle Deck alongside over 200 additional species of plants, shrubs and trees that have been identified so far!

It would be an enormous pleasure to have you join me, the Soulflowers and special guest hosts in the Soulflower Sanctuary for special plant spirit explorations, guided garden wanders, day retreats and other Experiences where we explore what it means to remember and restore our innate kinship with the Natural World. 

I would also be delighted to cocreate bespoke experiences for you privately (or with a group you bring together) where we can explore whatever your heart is calling for. See below for more information and inspiration and to schedule a call to begin. 

The Soulflower Sanctuary Gardens are open by appointment from May through November. The streetside plant stand is always open during these months and features cut flowers, culinary and medicinal herbs bundles as well as an ever changing assortment of seedlings and potted plants. If you would like to find out what is happening in the Garden, visit the Experiences page for a current calendar and then please scroll to the bottom of the page and join my email list to be informed when new experiences are added.

Bespoke Experiences

Let me hold space for you to remember your natural ability to tend the garden of your soul and the land you live on with a deep sense of belonging within the interconnected web of life we all reside within.

Private Rest & Restore Sessions for you to simply BE for a while. Nature is an extraordinary healer. You really don’t have to DO anything, just be open to the peace, grace and love available to you. I will greet you when you arrive and help you get grounded and present and then you are free to let your body and heart guide your private garden time. There will be tea and light refreshments available, art supplies for journaling or drawing, blankets for spreading on the ground for napping or picnicking, and paths to explore if you desire to wander quietly, with me or on your own. Mostly there will be quiet and space for you to rest & restore.

Private Mentorship Sessions for some personalized inspiration, focused garden wander and/or practical hands-on, heart centered tending of garden and self. Maybe you will want to get your hands dirty or maybe what you need is to be simply held by the trees or create art with the flowers. On your own or with a small group you gather, we can focus on your specific curiosities and interests. Some ideas include identifying and preparing medicinal plants, exploring edible flowers, ecological and intuitive garden tending practices, plant spirit connection, garden bathing, nature centered ceremony, flower essence preparation and so on. What does your heart wish to explore?

Following your inspiration and intention, I would love to create a bespoke experience with and for you. Please schedule a short call with me to begin.

It may look just like a garden, but it is actually a master classroom filled with intelligent life all helping you to remember the truth of who you are.

  • “If you have ever stepped foot in the Soulflower Sanctuary Garden you will feel the energetic vortex Lisa has co-created with the plant spirits. It is truly a humming, peaceful and harmonious place. Lisa is a true gift to the community, offering her deep knowledge of the plants, their spirits and how to foster a relationship with the land.”

  • “As a gifted artist, a deeply connected cultivator of the earth, and as a human, Lisa is grounded, emotionally tuned in, and real. I always know I'm going to get the truth, find the love within it all, and settle into a deeper connection when I'm with her. I feel so seen and nourished by Lisa and all that she co-creates with her breathtaking plant collaborators.”
