tending your inner & outer landscapes

Grief irreversibly alters our landscapes.

After the unthinkable has happened, I create safe containers where healing and regeneration are possible.

Your world will never look or feel quite the same. It’s tough to eat. It’s tough to sleep. Your body aches, and your spirit is depleted. Whether it has literally all burned down—or it feels that way right now—you don’t have to hold it alone.

Grief hits us personally, and we heal it collectively.

Let’s work through this moment to awaken, reorient, and transform your grief. Reach out for a 1:1 immersive journey, or group healing ritual.

Life burns through heart and home, unearthing truth. Grief is alive. Listen for its timeless wisdom. There is a pathway toward clarity, solace, and even awe.

Who is this for?

If you seek grief relief after any form of loss — a home, or a beloved; a diagnosis, or any other big deal transition, I’m right here.

Ways to work with me: 1) a 1:1 personal journey, 2) a collective healing ritual, 3) any of my weekly or monthly group experiences.

Our work together is a combination of deep listening, plant medicine, grief rituals, herbal protocols, time-tested mindful coping strategies, and polyvagal healing tools to reset the nervous system.

We harness the transformative power of grief. I guide people to release and renew.

Endings are Beginnings.

I’m skilled in grief support, reflective facilitation, witnessing, compassionate listening, mindful observing, intuitive healing, and embodied integration.

With reverence for the sacred plants, FromSoil2Soul rituals and earth-based practices are rooted in Jewish mysticism; ancient and emergent Middle Eastern stewardship practices; herbal wisdom; climate-wise soil science; and mutual aid. May YOU find Sanctuary here.

Because Death Feeds Life.

  • Client Testimonials

    Dev took me leaps beyond what I thought was even possible in a time of grief. She gave me the tools not just to grow food, but to see how the cycles of my garden could be interconnected with all parts of my life - my spiritual and emotional growth, my health, my daily living practices, and eventually the wellbeing of my family and my community during a most challenging time. Embarking on the FromSoil2Soul journey deeply impacted my perspectives. Dev has helped me connect the dots between being a caretaker for my garden, to becoming a steward for our planet. I couldn’t recommend this journey more highly!

  • Grief Relief

    It's difficult for me to find the words to share about Dev & FromSoil2Soul, because my eyes tear up and my heart gets overwhelmed with relief and gratitude for having found them.

    I believe Dev and her circles have saved my life. Her teachings and grief support have brought me solace in times of seemingly inconsolable pain from the inconceivable loss of my beloved son. 

    She guides us by using the plants, herbalism, and the teachings of our Earth Mother’s natural cycles, to help in working through the grief by applying these tools over time, as opposed to trying to avoid it, and just get over it. 

    I watch how her whole body works as a magical listening ear, encompassing her entire being when she focuses on hearing the inner and outer language of another human with a broken soul, thrashed by tragedy. I'm learning how to listen by watching her listen to others.

    The container of warmth provided by the Grief Garden, her rituals, and the monthly newMOON Circles is extraordinary. For me, it’s like a really soft warm blanket against my skin.a

  • Grief Ritual Support

    After losing my sister, Cathie Orange, I was overcome with very immense grief. FromSoil2Soul offerings, guided by the founder, Devorah, lovingly guided me back toward healing with a ritual planting of an orange tree. In this beautiful and poetic ceremony that Devorah created for my family and for my community to honor my sister’s memory, we shared an unforgettable, deeply moving, experience that brought a sense of peace I didn’t think was possible.

    Devorah’s warmth, wisdom, and compassion have been a constant source of comfort to me for the past four years.

    Through the monthly newMOON circles, I found a supportive space to grieve and grow. The Grief Garden has become my sanctuary, where nurturing life helped me rediscover hope. Devorah and FromSoil2Soul have been a beacon of light in my darkest moments, and I am forever grateful.
