Weaving threads of sacred plant medicine, sacred art, and shamanism
Emotional healing, life transitions, and deep inner transformation with Joy Ellis.
I am Joy, a UK-based intuitive artist, Shamanic healing practitioner, Sacred Plant medicine healer and facilitator, and Homeopath with over 26 years of experience working with the body, energy, spirit, and natural world.
Through plant spirit medicine, shamanic healing, and sacred art practices, I support people in reconnecting with themselves, releasing emotional blocks, and navigating profound life transitions.
This is healing that works with energy, consciousness, and the deeper intelligence of nature. Learn more about my story.

Sacred Plant Medicine
My work with Sacred plant medicine comes from years of apprenticeship, ceremonial work, and an embodied relationship with the plant kingdom. Plant Spirit medicine sessions and workshops can help you:
Reconnect with nature and your inner rhythm
Restore emotional and energetic balance
Experience the gentle yet powerful support of plant wisdom
Connect deeply with the plants on the land we live on
Rooted in years of experience, my work honours the reciprocity of our relationship with the plant kingdom.
Sacred Art
The art I am passionate about creating emerges from deep within the soul, often without having a preconceived idea of what the finished piece will be like.
Each piece of art has its own story to tell, and I love the wonder and excitement of surrendering and allowing the form to emerge whether the medium is paint or textiles, or both.
Sacred art work can support:
Emotional release and expression
Trauma integration through creativity
Reconnecting with inner vision and intuition
Restoring a sense of meaning and connection
I also offer Sacred art/visionary art workshops in the UK, where art becomes a pathway for spiritual and emotional exploration. This is art as healing practice, not performance or perfection.
I also produce Sacred art for sale. You can view my own work in my gallery and get in touch if there’s anything you’d like to purchase.
Shamanic Healing & Plant Medicine Healing sessions
If you are feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, burnt out, or going through a major life shift, shamanic healing sessions can support deep energetic release and realignment. Shamanism works through partnership with spirit and the unseen intelligence of life.
These spiritual healing sessions in the UK help you:
Release emotional trauma and energetic blocks
Feel lighter, calmer, and more grounded
Reconnect with your inner strength and direction
Sessions may include divination, oracular and seership - (these can also be offered separately)
Each session is intuitive and guided, supporting you to move forward with greater ease and confidence.
Sacred Ceremonies for Life Transitions
I offer bespoke sacred ceremonies in the UK to honour meaningful thresholds in life, including:
hand fasting ceremonies
baby naming ceremonies
rites of passage and life transition ceremonies
These ceremonies are created intuitively and held with presence, intention, and connection to the natural world. If you are marking an important moment in your life, I can help you design a ceremony that reflects your values and journey.
