Devorah Brous
Urban Homesteader & Herbalist | Ritual Facilitator | Consultant
@Dev.Brous (she|her) is the Creator of FromSoil2Soul.
As a plant wisdom practitioner, this practice, FromSoil2Soul, is dedicated to tending people and organizations at the nexus of burnout and renewal. Dev’s intersectional approach is based in ancient and emergent wellness practices for soul-care, earth-care, and community-care. Firmly rooted in mystical Judaism and earth-based Torah, this nature-based healing practice is also grounded in soil science and the wise-woman tradition of folk herbalism which is mindfully woven together with poetry, and prayer. Dev is a dynamic facilitator and an innovative consultant with a focus on regeneration for groups and individuals.
Prior to forming FromSoil2Soul, Dev was the founding Executive Director of two mission-driven environmental nonprofits, BUSTAN, and Netiya. As a community organizer with systems-impacted and underinvested communities for 25 years (indigenous, houseless, and formerly incarcerated people), Dev remains deeply committed to holistic wellness, counter-oppressive organizing, and unsettling. With two Masters degrees in conflict resolution and development studies, Dev sees conflict as a dynamic force to deepen communication and impact. This includes supporting non-hierarchical frameworks for culture change that center belonging, empowerment, and radical inclusivity. She guides people to resource the soul through grief, celebration, and community-care. Root down to rise up.

My Regenerative Change Cycle framework maps an experiential journey to replenish and resource.
Step into the ancient technology of Sabbath-inspired practices. May YOU find restorative ways to FALLOW in the garden, fromsoil2soul.
FromSoil2Soul: Regenerative Consulting | Courses | Ritual
I guide institutions, entrepreneurs, and change makers to tend garden and soul as one regenerative organism. My goal: to help clients to arise, nourished, and ready for whatever comes next.
The integration of regenerative earth-care with restorative soul-care -- serves as a natural bridge to crucial community-care. It is circular. It is cyclic. Drop into the body, feed the land and get resourced.

Who are YOU?
YOU are someone who is ready to grow. Someone powerful. Most of my clients are conscious entrepreneurs, philanthropists, creatives, and institutions, changemakers and nonprofits on a wellness journey. Perhaps you yearn to deepen a connection to the land; or want to gain self-reliance skills; or grow justice / equity in your community? Maybe you seek to transform your workplace into a healing and growing community while combating employee burnout. Or perhaps you want to convert an everyday outdoor space into a sacred garden—whether at home or at work? Maybe you seek a hand to ground and empower you. Or, maybe YOU want to grow more food or compost more food scraps where your body and soul are fed...YOU…want to feed and be fed.
Plant seeds that weave us back into ancient cycles with organic rhythms that replenish the spirit, refuel the body, and reboot the mind.
Nourish the soil in your landscape, and amend the garden of your soul.
