Understanding our business practices & the Ethics of The School of the Sacred Wild

Generosity of Heart:

The Apprenticeship offers a generous amount of wisdom, lessons, contact time & support, with no pressure to complete it all.

Rather, the course is like an abundant feast and buffet table where students are encouraged to take what feels most nourishing, go at their own pace, and “relax into receiving” a healing experience.

This course is intentionally priced to make our work accessible to a wide range of earth-loving people, foster greater health and deeper earth connection among our students, while creating a well-resourced community thriving in health & support.

We envision an economy based on generosity & offer additional financial support to those in need.

If paying the course tuition is not a problem and you are able to offer a donation to support a student in need, we honor your generosity and act of restorative justice!

Honor-based sliding scale:

To help ensure this knowledge becomes increasingly accessible to marginalized communities, the School of the Sacred Wild offers several payment and scholarship options. 

This honor-based system works & creates more equity for all when we each contribute the maximum that we are able to give in our financial circumstances. Our honor-based sliding scale is not a self-appointed discount.

Transparency of commerce:

Your tuition goes to:

41% does not go to us, but rather to the IRS for federal & CA taxes.

4% covers merchant fees.

55% of it goes to The School of the Sacred Wild and is used to:

~ create a healthy, well resourced community where all apprentices called to the path of earth activism, traditional medicine and healing can access this journey regardless of income, social status, foreign currency, etc. 

~ support our robust & extensive scholarship program & our staff in running it.

~ pay your teacher & guides salary. Marysia is the sole provider for herself, her family, her daughter’s education; her salary is her income. Marysia’s income feeds a web of relations & healthy roots.

~ pay fair wages for the School of the Sacred Wild staff & team.

~ pay 200$/hr to our Guest Experts. We believe in the importance of including diverse voices of colleagues and leaders in the field of regenerative practices, traditional healing, earth magick & wellness into our curated educational experience. Teachers & wisdom holders deserve recognition, gratitude, respect & honorable pay.

~ make donations to local groups and nonprofits restoring land, (repairing colonialism)/ restorative justice, planting trees, empowering women in developing countries, supporting indigenous wisdom keepers and Earth activists. Some of these organizations include and are not limited to: Women’s Earth Alliance, White Buffalo Land Trust, Amazon Watch, Jaguar Sembra, Daughters of the Earth as well as numerous GoFundMe and other grassroots efforts.
