BEGINS ON NEW MOON

Stand for Something Greater

A true shaman ‘knows’ they are different, unique and meant for more than what is on offer in modern society. They yearn to experience authentic connection, to help others and nature, to stand for something greater and to restore balance and order in the world. Shamans experience a deep yearning in their soul and spirit to undertake meaningful work that uplifts others and makes a difference.

Many of these people sense a lack of something within their very souls that is profoundly important but very difficult to deﬁne. Their presence is often powerful and polarising and they can feel misunderstood, restless and like they don’t belong. They feel the pain of others and the suffering in the world. They ache to do something that matters and will try many different modalities or travel the world looking for ‘home’.

Shamanism is a Noble Destiny

In the old traditions, the shaman was recognised at birth and was trained in the skills and disciplines of their lineage. With the traditional lineages disappearing, it is the spiritual lineage that is now calling the shamans home to fulfil their destiny.

Shamanism is a noble destiny. A shaman is a spirit walker who walks between the worlds and is ready to play an active and dynamic role in the restoration of harmony and balance to all people, places and things. A true shaman creates order where there is chaos.

When the shaman undertakes the sacred commitment to maintain the balance and order within themselves, they become capable of bringing balance and order to the world. When the shaman confronts their own fears and overcomes them, they are then empowered to confront the darkness of the world without fear. By following their true path, the shamans of the world are able to guide and lead others out of the darkness and into the light.

Re-Connect with the Inner Shaman

In the Aquarian Age, the ancient sacred pathway of the shaman has been fully restored and made available to all those who seek to re-connect with their inner shaman and walk the sacred path of the shaman.

We have supported hundreds of shamans through the 2-year comprehensive formal shamanic apprenticeship program. This program both honours the old ways and meets the modern requirements necessary for developing genuine shamanic abilities and capacities.

While this training has been developed to meet 21st century needs, the structure of the teachings is age-old and fully embodies all of the necessary traditional elements ensuring the teachings are a perfect expression of the ancient earth wisdom tradition.

The Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies© available exclusively through Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® is a pathway comprised of the 24 original ancient rites of passage and self-initiations of the shaman. You will be working with highly esteemed New Zealand native shamanic teacher plants to enable you to acquire, develop and master the necessary soul and spiritual qualities and disciplines to become a fully empowered shaman.

"I invite you to step on the primordial path of the shaman to become a living embodiment of true shamanic power and to help restore order and harmony in the world.

I look forward to welcoming you into the global Medicine Woman community and sharing with you the original ancient mystery teachings of the shaman."

Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber

Follow a Pathway 'Home'

The Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies© program with its 24 original ancient rites of passage and initiations of the shaman is a proven pathway ‘home’. As the apprentice shaman sequentially undertakes and successfully passes through each of the rites of passage and initiations, it enables them to rediscover their shaman’s power place, reunite with their power animals and spirit guides and triumph over challenges which enables them to stand and work for a better world.

Many Medicine Woman students say that joining the Medicine Woman community is like ‘coming home’.

1. Personal Transformation

The first expression of shamanic power is associated with the personality. Working with shamanic teacher plant essences at this level enables you to undergo profound personal transformation and acquire the necessary shamanic expertise for daily maintenance of your personality. It also enables you to develop the required understanding of the holistic healing capacities of each shamanic teacher plant so that you are then able to more effectively assist others on their healing journey.

2. Attaining Wisdom

The second expression of shamanic power is associated with the soul. The teacher plants that you will be working with are plants of a very high order that from ancient times have been associated with the deeper teachings of holistic healing and spiritual development. Because of their great wisdom, these shamanic teacher plants help you to exponentially deepen your wisdom and spiritual insight. They help to facilitate more rapid soul growth and spiritual development that is not possible through any other practice. This enables you to penetrate deeper into the great mysteries and attain exponentially higher levels of knowledge and wisdom.

3. Skill Acquisition

The third expression of shamanic power is associated with the spirit. Working with shamanic teacher plant essences provides a safe path of initiation. Each shamanic teacher plant essence represents a developmental stage that a person must pass through to acquire specific spiritual skills and disciplines. Each shamanic teacher plant supports a person to face and overcome the initiatory challenges that are milestones on the shaman’s path to oneness, self-mastery and enlightenment.

4. Planetary Transformation

The fourth expression of shamanic power is associated with planetary transformation, which has a transpersonal focus. This is the magical work that you will have an opportunity to participate in within the Medicine Woman program that enables you to play an active, intelligent and purposeful role in planetary transformation.

What Our Students Say

A time of coming home

"The journey with the shamanic teacher plants can be described as a time of coming home to a place I have always known within, a place of truth, harmony and balance. I have gently and assuredly been taught through facing my shadow, dying to the old self and being 'reborn' many times.

The journey through Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© enabled me to find the true path forward, standing in relationship with the sacred, with spirit.

I feel now as a re-awakened shaman knowing how to transcend the duality of mind. More and more I see now my mission being reinforced and it is belonging to the community of healer-shamans that are learning to work effectively through the sacred laws of nature to assist in humanity's evolution. I have deep heartfelt gratitude, to Franchelle Ofsosoké-Wyber, my esteemed teacher, for making possible the wonderful adventure of these past two years."

Gillian Crundwell
Ecologist and Herbalist, Australia

I can now hold my spiritual purpose

"Undertaking the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© program helped me to eliminate many limiting and negative personality traits within me, for example my rejection and abandonment complex.

I find I am more neutral and not attached to things (people, outcomes). I no longer argue with people and put my energy where it is best used.

Being more neutral means I no longer have the fear around certain things. Now I can function however, wherever and whenever I need to, and I can be in service to the Goddess and Spirit without questioning. I'm not afraid to walk my talk."

Vivia Ward
Massage Therapist and Energy Healer, New Zealand

I experience inner peace and happiness every day

"My life has irrevocably changed after committing to the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© journey. I have addressed past pain, and cleared so much from my life emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. I have become lighter for it. My life flows synchronistically. I have more energy. Those things I need in my life are attracted to me instantly and without effort. My relationships have improved, my intuition has improved. Mentally I am clearer and more successful in all the other studies I have taken on. I am able to make clear goals in my life and achieve them easily. Relationships around me have also grown and improved. My workplace(s) have changed for the better and I am attracting other people key to my development on a regular basis.

I cannot express the true gratitude I have for firstly Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber for bringing this knowledge, wisdom and insights for us to access My love for the shamanic plants has grown along with my own development. I am able to take care of myself, my family and others connected to me and with great joy. My work life is full of positive connections. Ultimately I experience inner peace and happiness every day!!!!"

Lizzie Nicolson
Occupational Therapist, UK

Changed my life in so many ways

"The Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© program changed my life in so many ways – in every way possible actually and continues to benefit me in daily life. I loved the way it empowered me and gave me confidence to step more fully into the truth of who I am and who I have always been. In the past, my untamed nature caused me a lot of trouble and misery because there was no outlet for this wild power that I was born with.

I have always been rebellious and stood up for others in need and always raised my voice against injustice. After doing the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© program, I have become much more focused, effective and energy efficient with my activism. I brought the pieces of myself into a more cohesive and cooperative unit. My wildness became a beautiful thing, not a troublesome burden. I am much more refined and effective at helping people now.

I am fearless when confronted with the inevitable problems that arise in life. I guide others toward their own power and I stand as an example of what having a free spirit can look like in the world. Each of these teacher plants stood by my side and guided me to a new place within that is valuable and golden. I can’t recommend this program highly enough and I would encourage anybody who feels restricted by the confines of the modern way of life to embark upon this program and discover the freedom that exists in your soul that is yours to claim and to enjoy to the full!"

Lynda Earl
Natural Medicine Practitioner, New Zealand

More rapid progress

"I have made more progress through the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© apprenticeship than in the last 25 years of my life studying in other mystery schools. I have learnt the importance of self-observation, nature and I have a deeper understanding of the disciplines required for me to fulfil my destiny in this lifetime."

Steven Lydford
Teacher, New Zealand

My life has completely turned around

"My life has completely turned around since undertaking the incredible Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© journey. I now view my life mainly from the perspective of my soul as opposed to previously viewing it from the personality. If I do move into personality, my soul definitely gets my attention to remind me of where my allegiance lies. I know I would not be in this position if it were not for the incredibly esteemed shamanic teacher plants and the unwavering dedication and commitment of Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber and Medicine Woman team."

Patricia Stowell
Podiatrist, New Zealand

I am awake in a way I have never been before

"I enrolled into the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies© program because I heard a calling to learn shamanism after a dark night of my soul.

I found Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies® and I considered it greatly before enrolling.

As a result of undertaking this program, I am awake in a way I have never been before. I am aware of new ways to connect to my strong intuition.

My life is forever changed. I now live by the lunar calendar and am awakened to my magic. I am a calmer, more patient and present woman.

I stopped smoking cigarettes (had my final quit), I released alcohol, I released caffeine, I lost unhealthy weight.

I also became an elder in my circles, even though I am somewhat younger, but experientially I am an elder.

Professionally I've stopped my part time work because I realized the importance of the time I have with my mother who is living with demetia, I am her caregiver. Also my husband is challenged by a blood disorder and I want to be with him as much as I can. They are very important to me.

Doing the shamanic journeys in a timely fashion (before the next phase of the moon) challenged me initially because I was very busy in my caregiving role. YET by grace I got through them and they were great teachers. I had to get my ego out of the way so I could be open to possibilities.

I'm grateful for these sacred teachings and will honor what I have learned and continue to apply all I have learned to my life."

Valmarie Levine

Profound transformation

"The 2-year Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© program was one of profound transformation in my life both physically and spiritually. I felt I have made progress. Reflecting back on the person I once was, makes me squirm with embarrassment and the wonder of "how did I survive without any awareness of what I was doing or saying, let alone what my egotistical motivations were?" I didn't realise the progress I was making at the time because the shamanic teacher plants are subtle in their influence. But these shamanic teacher plants are strong and insidious in their determination for humanity to progress and become 'light-filled'. A wonderful 2 years spent!"

Helen Francis
Carer, New Zealand

My ideal way of living

"I have gained so much from the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© program. I can now hold my spiritual purpose much more strongly knowing a group of souls is there for the same objective and be able to apply valuable teachings in every day life in a practical way - my ideal way of living."

Sumi Asano
Energy Healer, Flower Essence Practitioner, New Zealand

Has opened my mind and heart

"I have learnt much about being consistent and focused and am learning to stay in neutral and not react to life. Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© has opened my mind and heart and it has sustained me through a very difficult time in my life."

Jeanette Shearer
Energy Healer and Artist, New Zealand

I am feeling extremely enriched

“I just want to let you know that I am feeling extremely enriched, that I am learning a lot, and that I am getting much more than I had expected out of this journey with the shamanic teacher plant essences that I embarked upon more in an exploratory mode and to focus on becoming more whole myself while I help others heal.

I am a daily practitioner of your teachings - am doing my rituals and really loving them as I connect more and more to what is most important to me and that is energy - of all frequencies.

I feel I am perfect for the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies© program and it is perfect for me because I have always been a lover of the earth, nature, and spirituality. Just checking in to thank you all for this program! My heart is totally focused on the experience, expansion, discipline and training that I am receiving. I am bringing in more joy and becoming more and more alive as I connect with nature and all the spirits connected to it and me.

I started my own heirloom food growing at the beginning of spring and what a joy it was to do that during my month with First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand® No 99 Pale Flowered Kumerahou and using First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand® No 100 Mahoe with it. The time with the shamanic teacher plant essence No 100 Mahoe was simply ENERGY CANDY as I am a bongo / Congo player and now spend at least 15 min a day after my morning ceremony beating a heart based rhythmic beat to put energy wings on my prayers and to greet and send joy to all my plants - indoors and the ones that will one day feed me outdoors :)

What a great relationship to have! Enjoying their spirits every day! My altar is also beaming with energy and joy!”

A greater sense of empowerment

"When I set foot on the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© apprenticeship program, I had little idea of just how much this journey would change my life... for the better! Working under the wise tutelage of the venerable shamanic teacher plants and through the well-structured program provided by the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic Studies^® was a very powerful process of growth and transformation.

The person I was when I began the apprenticeship program is no longer the person I am today. These days, I feel a greater sense of empowerment and awareness on many levels, through the experiences I have had working with the powerful New Zealand native teacher plant essences.

Throughout the Medicine Woman shamanic apprenticeship, I felt I was given many opportunities to expand my consciousness in order to be of service to spirit. The journey was not without its challenges, and I see this as being a vitally important part of the process to break me out of limiting definitions of who and what I thought I was. I was never alone on the journey and had the constant support of the teacher plant spirits, and my fellow apprentices through the Medicine Woman online school.

I am eternally grateful to Franchelle Ofsoské-Wyber for giving us the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© apprenticeship program in a very workable, structured format. I am also incredibly grateful to the sacred shamanic teacher plants of New Zealand that have stepped forward to share their wisdom and teachings with those of us who choose to walk this ancient path of the shaman in the 21st Century."

Lana Raill
Naturopath, New Zealand

I am feeling truly more connected

"I loved absorbing and integrating the wisdom of the shamanic teacher plants to significantly increase the nature, qualities and capacities of the chalice that I offer to Spirit. My cup runneth over with sincere gratitude, respect and awe. The changes experienced during the Medicine Woman Certificate in Shamanic Studies^© are a reconnection into my ancient role as a High Priestess, with my abilities modified and expanded exponentially in a new age context. I see life and operate more from a timeless dimension beyond physical eyes alone. I have shed many skins, parring back to core foundations and a heritage in the stars. "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose" from the song "Me a Bobby McGee" by Janis Joplin."

Make Faster Spiritual Progress with Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies^® - A True Mystery School

In ancient times, an aspiring spiritual seeker had to climb high mountains, cross raging rivers, navigate through dense thick forests and face numerous life threatening situations in order to have access to higher knowledge. Those who followed their spiritual calling eventually, often after very many years, were able to find their way to the doorway into a mystery school, a temple or enter into the presence of a spiritual teacher.

At this point a spiritual aspirant would undergo multiple tests set out by a spiritual teacher, which were designed to challenge and test the student’s consciousness and ascertain their commitment to the spiritual path. If the aspirant was able to pass through the tests, they would embark on a very long and very arduous journey of self-discipline and soul development under the guidance of a spiritual teacher. An aspirant would undertake a long series of rites of passage designed to gradually eliminate the dross from their consciousness and to gradually turn homo sapiens, natural human into homo spiritualis, spiritual human and ultimately into the perfected human homo deus, the god man or god woman. The journey was very slow and arduous, taking many decades and often many lifetimes, which is a non-linear pathway to self-mastery and enlightenment.

In the Aquarian Age, each person has a phenomenal opportunity to acquire the necessary self-discipline and to experience soul development while making spiritual progress at a speed that has never been hitherto possible. This opportunity is the spiritual pathway made available exclusively through the Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies^® programs.

Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies ^® - The Mystery School of the Goddess, provides a proven spiritual and evolutionary pathway with a sequential series of ancient rites of passage and self-initiations that enable a person to experience and acquire exponentially higher states of consciousness at a speed that is more rapid than ever before. These series of rites of passage can be undertaken multiple times and in any order to exponentially accelerate your learning and spiritual development.

The Medicine Woman pathway is the magical high road of the Goddess, the ageless path of return back to oneness, self-mastery and enlightenment. Medicine Woman Centre for Shamanic and Esoteric Studies^® teachings are the ancient teachings of the House of the Bee, the original high mystery teachings of the Goddess, the Divine Feminine. These teachings like nature itself have a non-linear expression. This means each Medicine Woman program can be undertaken multiple times and in any order. By working with the Medicine Woman programs the opportunity is there for you to experience exponential spiritual and evolutionary growth and attain infinitely higher levels of consciousness and awareness.

Are your teacher plant essences hallucinogenic?

No. New Zealand is the only country in the world that is home to the warriors of the plant kingdom. Unlike teacher plants from other cultures, these warrior teacher plants are not psychotropic and do not create a hallucinogenic effect. They work at a more subtle level that is far more effective in raising a person's vibration and producing an expanded state of consciousness.

Are there any prerequisites to this program? Do I need to have any prior knowledge?

No. You can undertake this program without any prior knowledge or experience. You will be carefully guided along the path and you will receive the step-by-step instruction to be able to undertake the 24 rites of passage of the shaman and to be able to develop the necessary skills and capacities of the shaman.

I am wondering what it means to be an apprentice while studying?

An apprentice is a person who is acquiring new skills under the guidance of an expert for a period of time for a specific purpose. You would be an apprentice as you are studying and working under clear guidelines as part of a structured program and learning from highly esteemed New Zealand native teacher plants each month.

Do your teacher plant essences contain alcohol?

First Light Flower Essences of New Zealand^® teacher plant essences are preserved with brandy. At this stage it is not possible to manufacture our products to their consistently high standard without the use of alcohol.
