Study with Australian naturopath Omanisa and learn how to deliver one of her Spirit Medicine modalities in your own unique way, by blending it with your existing skill-base and interests. Om teaches students how to access a slightly altered state of consciousness while staying grounded and engaging critical thinking skills, so they can be effective spiritual healers and counsellors.
Practitioner Training for healers, therapists, psychics, counsellors, and card readers…

If you are unfamiliar with Om’s work, we recommend reading through her Mission Statement to get a feel for her ethos and the focus of her intent as a healer, mentor and guide.
STUDENT TESTIMONIAL “The apprenticeship this year was amazing, fun and so valuable. Omanisa’s name, I had heard, as a household name, in Darwin. For over 10 years. However, the opportunity to meet, had not shown itself. Having not met Om, we agreed to a healing session, 1st, to see if our energy for working together was going to be “the right fit”. On our 1st meeting, we were in stitches laughing & the journey began. Her apprenticeship model is delivered so beautifully... The concepts & lessons engaged students eagerly & the fluidity of material, mixed with her gentle nature, made it easy to follow, comprehend then practice. All of the practices have been truly valued. The tools and content priceless. Om has also, guided me to use skills I already had- weaving my existing skill set, into her model. I now have great confidence- moving forward- into a new realm of healing, setting up a practice and earning an income. I cannot express, fully in words, how much you will get, out of committing to this apprenticeship. Thanks so much Om!“

Omanisa’s practitioner-training program provides apprentices with:
- 90min of Weekly (full time apprenticeship) or Fortnightly (part time apprenticeship) Practitioner Training. Small class size, 2-4 people only to provide high quality personalised training. Local Darwin students are welcome to attend the clinic in person for this training (we also have a casual option available).
- Access to all of the 90 min Zoom-based weekly Shadows into Light self-healing sessions, including web-based course modules you can study at your own pace.
- The opportunity to co-facilitate Shadows into Light classes and the Visionary Retreats with Om.
- Become part of Om’s Student Clinic, where you can access Om’s client base and provide consults with Om’s support and supervision.
The first rule Om always sets for her healing students is “self-care comes first”. The weekly Zoom sessions in the accompanying Shadows into Light package help you stay anchored in your self-care. Every single skill we learn as healers and guides for others begins with learning how to apply these skills in our own personal lives. You will learn specific self-healing and self-guidance skills in Shadows into Light, and then in the practitioner sessions, Omanisa will show you how to apply these same skills when healing and guiding others. With the practitioner sessions, you will ocasionally have one-on-one sessions with Om, but most of the time you’ll be taking turns with other apprentices to receive and provide healing and guidance. It’s vital you know how it feels to be on the receiving end, because this hones your expertise as a healer and guide.
FAQ
Does it matter if I don’t live in Darwin NT? Can I still become an apprentice?
In years past, we’ve had students join us from New Zealand, Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia. While local Darwin students are welcome to attend the clinic for their personal consults, the style of healing Om teaches lends itself perfectly to distant work. As a healer, Omanisa works with clients all over the world and as her local clients can attest, a session via Zoom is no less potent than a session in the clinic.
Do you have a payment plan?
Yes! While you can save lots by paying in advance, we do have a subscription version where you can pay as you go.
Who are these apprenticeships for?
- Hobby healers who want to take their skills to the next level and become professional healers.
- Anyone who wants to learn how to read and understand the aura and use this for spiritual counselling, or become a professional oracle card reader who can genuinely help people.
- Counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists who would like to develop their intuition and spiritual counselling skills in ways that will compliment their practice.
- Naturopaths and other natural therapists (or students) who would like to learn how to blend spirituality with naturopathy in a therapeutic way, with a special focus on herbal medicine, flower and gem elixirs, colour therapy, chakras and mind-body healing.
- Professional healers, oracle/tarot readers and psychics who are burned out and need help finding more sustainable ways to keep doing what they love.
- Established healers who wish to deepen their knowledge and skills, especially in regards to psychic awareness and self-care, light-body anatomy and physiology, shamanism, dream-work, creative therapies, guided meditation, herbal medicine, and working with spirit guides.
For the following groups of people, please bear in mind ANY of the Shadows into Light Self-Care Coaching Journeys would be well suited you, it doesn’t need to be the full apprenticeship)
- Anyone who works with or on behalf of First Nations people and/or the environment, who would like to develop skills and awareness that will deepen their connection and capacity to be of service without burning out
- Artists, story-tellers and creative people who would like to develop their intuitive awareness and their ability to channel inspired visions and ideas.
- Sensitives, empaths and natural channels who would like to understand and develop their gift in ways that are safe, practical and grounded.
Can I start with one of the Self-Care Coaching Packages and do the apprenticeship later?
Yes! This is a great way to dip your toe in and test the waters. You will obviously save money if you do it all at once, but we can negotiate some credit if you’ve been actively engaged in one of the Shadows into Light Self-Care Coaching packages and decide to upgrade to the apprenticeship.
Is it possible to meet Om and ask her some questions about the apprenticeship?
Yes! You will need to fill in the application form, but if you’re confident we’re a good fit for each other, I’d also love to have a conversation with you. Just use the link below to book yourself in for this (it’s free).
STUDENT TESTIMONIAL “I’ve grown and developed so much from this apprenticeship. The weekly classes are a joy to participate in and a highlight of my week. Omanisa’s grounded and friendly nature radiates through the delivery of well researched content that draws from her exceptional history in the field. The online live format works really really well and I’ve connected with some really lovely people. I’ve been taught some really powerful tools and ideas, but Omanisa also gives me a holistic framework that makes my mindset and practise sustainable and balanced. So I feel confident working with multiple clients a day without feeling depleted or unbalanced. The best part of it is that it is very ‘hands on’ so I am getting all the wonderful benefits of the healing work; and I’m integrating it effortlessly into my daily lifestyle. Omanisa really goes above and beyond to ensure I am encouraged and given opportunities to get real world experience under her guidance. I have gained so many new abilities, new senses and a really strong toolkit for working with myself and others. It has changed my life and my approach to healing in a very profound way. If you’re a practitioner or feel that calling, or just looking to leap forward on your own journey, I would wholeheartedly recommend joining!”
Choose your area of expertise
Depending on your existing skill-base, you can negotiate with Om about what aspects of Spirit Medicine you would like to master. It might be about taking your existing skills to the next level, or filling in a missing gap to become more well-rounded if you’re already in practice as a healer, counsellor or guide for others.
AURA
Aura ~ Chakra ~ Energy Lines ~ Colours
Om has almost thirty years experience reading, sketching and healing people’s aura’s or energy fields. Aura Reading is a form of psychic counselling that can help clients develop greater self-awareness so they see and own their inner light, make peace with their shadows and make positive changes in their life. Om is especially interested in helping amateur Aura Card readers develop their skill. If you are already practising as a healer/counsellor/coach, Om can show you how to integrate the card readings into your consults. If you’ve been doing readings for friends and family and thinking about going professional, Om can help you take the next step!
Aura Sketching can be used as part of the reading/counselling process, but it can also be used as a therapeutic way to help people express and explore feelings they can’t easily put into words. If you’re artistic/creative or you’d love to incorporate art and colour therapy into your practice, Om can help you develop this skill.
Aura Therapy is a blend of creative visualisation, colour therapy, mindful meditation and Ki energy work that can be used to help people shift their mindbody into a more positive state. It often includes shamanic methods such as soul retrieval, as well as exercises based on neuroscience and psychology. Om can teach you how to craft your own energy/Ki based modality, or help you integrate these skills and concepts into your existing practice in ways that align with who you are.
SPIRIT
Nature Therapy ~ Shamanic Journeying
Om’s Gaian Healing modality has been a big favourite with apprentices, because it blends Aura Therapy with shamanic journeying and Nature Therapy. A Gaian Healing attunement follows a series of specific healing steps that realign the client’s aura, release blockages and restore flow and reconnect them with Nature, their larger body. While the Earth Goddess Gaia (Mother Nature) is the main guide for this healing, the healer is also assisted by Nature-spirit helpers such as animal spirit guides, plant spirits (eg dryads and flower spirits), elementals (eg sunlight fairies) and the spirits of mountains, rivers and so on. You can ask Om to train you in this modality, or choose aspects of it that appeal to you and blend them with your existing skill-base. For example, you might want to help people connect with Nature via mindfulness exercises or creative visualisation as part of your counselling practice.
STUDENT TESTIMONIAL “I am an Earth Healer and during the program the modality that I specialised in was the Gaian Attunement. I loved the Spirit Medicine and Mastery where we worked in small groups and were able heal ourselves and others with the beautiful guidance from Omanisa and our spirit guides, when we learnt the skills we were then able to explore our specific gifts and integrate with the Medicine and Mastery of who we are – this for me was so important. I love the experience and knowledge that Omanisa brings through many years of teaching, healing and lived experience. Om’s teaching and healing is very gentle kind and supportive to everyone, Om links the right people to assist and work together in the journey. What I love most about Omanisa is her openness to learn explore and help us all grow with so much energy and love, I feel blessed to be part of this program.”
Spirit Guides
Students can choose to specialise in working with Spirit Guides, where they learn how to deliver a spirit-guided healing and/or pass messages through from people’s guides, to enhance the client’s healing and personal growth. Om can also show you how to use spirit guide therapy, where clients are taught to “create” a spirit guide to help them access their inner wisdom and higher guidance.
Oracle Cards
While SpiritLight teaches you how to do Oracle Card Readings to enhance your own healing and personal growth journey, apprentices can learn how to become professional readers for others. Om has decades of experience as a card reader, and can teach you how to read any deck intuitively, without needing to refer to the book.
HERBAL
Plant Spirit Medicine ~ Herbal
Om is a naturopath who specialises in using Herbal Medicine and flower essences to heal and balance the chakras. She has her own unique product range of herbal chakra tinctures, aura sprays and Australia wildflower essences which graduates can have wholesale access to. Om is happy to work with student-practitioners who would like to learn how to use plant-spirit medicine for health and healing. For some, this will be about collaborating with spirit guides in the shamanic visionary state who specialise in working herbal/bush medicine. Alternatively, you might want to learn how to make flower essences and communicate with flower spirits, or be trained to use Om’s Herbal Chakra System for healing others.
