Teaching At Herbstalk

Jupiter’s Labyrinth In Person Classes 2025-2026

Join Me Saturday June 7th At Herb & Garden Day for:

Cycles Of Self Care Workshop

We live in a culture that often glorifies self care that looks like fancy spa treatments, yoga retreats or hour long bubble baths.

Let’s be honest; not everyone has the time or means for that type of “self care”.

AND everyone’s idea of self care is different & will likely change throughout their  lives based on lifestyle, family & workload.

This workshop will focus upon herbal self care practices- some simple yet profound, others that are essential yet often forgotten.

Practices for when you might be having your “Netflix self care time” or even when you only have 5 minutes to pee & hide from your kids in the bathroom. 

From nourishing teas, elixirs, massage oils & herbs in the kitchen, to essences & aromatics- this workshop will look at the spectrum of self care with herbs & honoring the cycle of life you are presently in.

Participants may choose to leave with a self care potion they’ll craft themselves to bring home.

Join Me Sunday June 8th 2025 in Somerville MA at Herbstalk!

From Foxglove & Poison Ivy To Lobelia & Lady’s Slipper,  Amanda will walk you through safe & effective ways to create herbal essences with allies who are deemed too poisonous or endangered for  traditional methods. After an introduction to what plant essences are & how they can be safely used, we’ll discuss & share alternative & effective ways to co-create essences that will both honor the plants & not harm you or your plant allies. Essences will be shared & experienced with an opportunity to take samples home.

Ceramics & Spirit Workshop At The Aplomb Gallery Dover, NH

Mondays from 5-8 PM, June 2 & June 9, 2025
262 Central Ave, Dover, NH

REGISTER HERE

This two part workshop combines the roots of herbalism & roots of pottery making into a fun, engaging, hands-on-perhaps even life changing experience!

Workshop 1: Monday June 2nd 5-8pm

Plants love to communicate & connect with humans & what’s more, they can offer support for our minds, bodies and spirits, if we’d only just stop & listen.

Join Amanda Stanley of Jupiter’s Labyrinth as we explore the essentials of plant spirit communication, then venture outside to find a plant ally to chat with. After meeting with your new (or old) green friend, we’ll come back inside & create a hand built ceramic “plant spirit vessel” with our new found allies. You’ll be introduced to 3 different types of hand building styles, and will choose the one that works for your vision.

We’ll experience how clay & form can communicate to us as well & allow the spirit of the plants & spirit of the clay, co-create your vessel with you.

Once built, Amanda will take your vessels to be dried & bisque fired & will return with them in the following workshop.

Workshop 2 Monday: June 9th 5-8pm

We’ll meet once again & have another visit with our green allies to deepen our connection & conversation. We’ll then come back to the studio to glaze our vessels AND as a bonus (optional) you’ll have the opportunity to create a simple talisman charm as another outlet to stay connected to your plant ally. Talisman’s can be worn as a necklace, kept in your pocket or placed under your pillow during rest & further communication as you dream.

After our final workshop Amanda will glaze fire your vessels and return them to Aplomb to be picked up at your convenience.

All materials included!

Magickal Boundaries @ Spirit Wise Herbs & Magick Portsmouth NH

Have you ever walked into a room of people and felt immediately overjoyed by the energy you felt or perhaps repelled &  unsettled?

Since everything & everyone emits a unique energy, it’s our job to tune into what energy we connect to and serves our lives & what energies do not.

Whether at work, with friends & family or even with yourself, boundaries are fundamental for a happy & healthy life. 

This workshop offers lifelong tools & practices including plant & crystal allies, meditations & rituals that will aid in instilling loving boundaries in one’s life that serves you as well as everyone around you. 

Each participant will go home with a magickal boundaries talisman that they will craft themselves.

The physical , emotional & spiritual trauma from this loss are real, deep & often continue for months if not years beyond a loss. 

No single experience of pregnancy loss is alike, and each one is deserving of love, space & support for processing & healing.

This workshop will offer a safe space for exactly that. 

Participants will have the opportunity to create a sculpted clay memorial piece to honor their loss which can be used as an altar piece or for prayer & meditation as a touchstone for their spirit baby.

Whether the pregnancy loss was recent or years ago, Healing The Chalice offers a safe space to share experiences of pregnancy loss while also learning about plant allies that can support us physically, emotionally & spiritually through our healing & grief.

Teas, elixirs, steams, oils & essences will be experienced & DIY recipes shared.

All Folks Who Have Experienced Physical Pregnancy Loss Welcome.
