Original Instructions are instructions for living as Human Beings who exist with, and from Earth. The Original Instructions School of Traditional Medicine and Practical Skills has gathered holistic and traditional practitioners from around the world to provide you with accessible education in areas of study that support, exemplify, and preserve ways of human life which are in alignment with the Original Instructions - without culturally appropriating.
If you’re looking to gain authentic traditional information and experiences surrounding Herbalism, Childbearing, Healing, and Advocacy from an Indigenous perspective then we’re the school for you! On the other hand, if you’re looking for diluted, vague, self-validated, and culturally appropriated experiences or “initiations” then were most likely not a great fit.
Original Instructions School of Traditional Medicine and Practical Skills offers classes, workshops, and certification programs online and in person.

There were times over the past 20 years of being involved with the education of birth care providers and humans who are preparing to give birth that I felt I was mindful of being inclusive to people who have C-sections. However, after having been through it, I now see painfully clear how little I understood or provided in that way. It is in the Spirit of expansion that we offer you our newest Original Instructions certification program, My Sacred C-Section. In it we include training surrounding nutrition, comfort measures, scared tissue remediation, physical rehabilitation, general postpartum care, herbal allies, traditional ceremonial practices, and a road map to recovery for those who give birth via C-Section and their care providers.

The apology and promises of reconciliation just weren´t enough
neither the peppermint mocha or assortment of numbing agents,
they couldn´t erase
or cover up
how broken she was.
Pieces forgotten and long lost
among st the rubble and emotional wreckage
of the generations
