Thank you for finding your way here to the Sacred Grove. My name is Eryn Shrader,  and my family and I are working hard to create the kind of life where humans live in peace and balance with each other, and the natural world. 

​

I have studied as a licensed Registered Nurse, a board certified holistic nurse, a community herbalist (Northern Appalachia School, School of Evolutionary Herbalism, Rowan & Sage, and more!), a 200hr Yoga Teacher (Create Karma), Spiritual Director (Oasis Ministries), Master Level Reiki Teacher, (Reiki Blessings Academy) Novice Monk with the Gnostic Celtic Church, Druid Apprentice with the Ancient Order of Druids in America, and Ovate with the Order of Bards Ovates and Druids.

 

I have sought all of this education in response to the desire to bring balance and healing to a world that is overflowing with beauty, and groaning in pain.  I spend most of my time in the role of tending; tending my home and family, the land where we live (lovingly called The Sacred Grove), and the larger web of community we are all woven into. I tend the larger community through my herbalism and spiritual direction practice, with my blog and podcast, by being a mentor  to other Druids within the Ancient Order of Druids in America, and by cultivating peace and vitality within my own life.

 

I'm glad you found your way here.  

​

Warmly,

Eryn
