Healing Arts Ministerial Ordainment
The Healing Arts Ministerial Ordination through Freedom Folk & Soul is an initiation into sacred service, responsibility, and embodied leadership. Rooted in indigenous medicine ways, Toltec wisdom, and a non-fear-based spiritual philosophy, this ordination honors the healer, guide, and ceremonialist within you while affirming the deep ethics required to walk with others in vulnerable and transformative spaces.
As an ordained minister, you are recognized both spiritually and legally, allowing you to serve others with clarity, protection, and integrity. This ordination supports practitioners who offer spiritual counseling, hands-on healing, ceremony, and pastoral care in a way that empowers personal sovereignty rather than dependence. Our ministers are taught to hold faith for others only long enough to return it to them—serving as safe mirrors, not authority figures.
This is a fully legal ministerial ordination chartered in the state of Tennessee, granting all rights and privileges of ordained ministry. With this ordination, you may officiate marriages, provide spiritual counseling, minister in hospitals and prisons, and legally perform hands-on healing work.
Above all, this ordination affirms your role as a bridge—between wisdom and modern life, spirit and body, ceremony and service—walking others home to their own power.
(Please note that each state has its own laws and requirements governing these activities, so you should verify the applicable regulations in your state for confirmation.)

Transformational Facilitator of the Healing Arts
Master Practitioner
Toltec Medicine Wheel of Transformation
This is our final and most comprehensive training offering. While there are many programs that simply allow participants to pay a fee and receive a “master” title, this is not that type of program. This is a true Master Practitioner training. If you are not already teaching, facilitating, or actively serving others—or if you are not genuinely called to step fully into that role—this program is not the right fit.
This Master Practitioner Program is designed specifically for individuals who have completed all of our training programs and have begun working as facilitators or practitioners within the healing arts. It is intended for those who are ready to elevate their work to the next level, as well as for those who have completed our programs but need deeper mentorship and support in fully stepping into visibility, leadership, and professional practice.
Enrollment in this program is not open to the public. All applicants must inquire and be approved. It is essential to us that this program is truly the right next step on your personal and professional path within the healing arts.

Participants must also have experience leading, or be currently leading, breathwork sessions, workshops, classes, journeys, or similar offerings.
Each Master Practitioner will be required to teach extensively and proficiently across all Seven Directions of the Toltec Medicine Wheel of Transformation.
Program Scope and Mentorship
As a Master Practitioner, you will be immersed in every aspect of the work. This includes planning, teaching, client facilitation, and walking alongside individuals in their healing journeys. Equal emphasis is placed on the business and professional aspects of the healing arts—communication, ethical practice, sustainability, and building a successful healing arts business—as well as on creating safe, supportive, and transformational healing containers.
This role carries profound responsibility. Master Practitioners are entrusted with supporting mental and emotional wellness and guiding others toward their own empowerment, self-worth, and inherent value.
Throughout the program, you will work closely and directly with Jeremy and Stephanie, learning from their combined 45 years of experience in the healing arts. This includes both the knowledge they have cultivated and the wisdom gained through decades of hands-on practice.
This is truly a Master Practitioner of the Healing Arts program.

Collaborative Book Project
Becoming a Best Selling Author
The Collaborative Book Journey is a transformational initiation into authorship, embodiment, and sacred storytelling. This offering is more than writing a book—it is a pilgrimage, a training, and a rite of passage that invites you to place your lived wisdom, teachings, and personal story into written form and release it into the world with purpose and integrity.
This journey begins with a group pilgrimage to a sacred site, where we gather as a collective of authors to bond, open creatively, and experience deep personal and communal transformation. During this time, you will receive writing classes, teachings, and guided practices designed to help you access your authentic voice and message. From there, the journey continues at home through ongoing Zoom classes, coaching, and support as you write your chapter, poem, or inspired contribution.
You will be supported by our writing wrangler and editorial team, who will guide you in refining your work and expressing yourself with clarity and confidence. Alongside the writing process, we provide business and infrastructure coaching—helping you establish contact pathways, online presence, and visibility so readers can connect with you after the book is released.
Together, we complete and launch the book as a collective, supported by a launch team designed to achieve best-selling status. We have completed three prior collaborative book projects—published in partnership with Brave Healers Productions—that have changed many people’s lives and have gone on to become number one best-selling books in multiple categories. This process is often described as three initiations in one: the journey, the writing, and the courageous release of your words into the world. It is ideal for practitioners, teachers, first-time writers, and anyone ready to share their story and step into authorship as a form of service and transformation.
