The Mystery Mentorship, an online mystery school, is joyous and liberating, yet it also asks you to show up to all of yourself. You will become confident in who you are by recalling your wholeness, facing your demons, and strengthening your intuition and psychic gifts. If you’re ready to access your agency, Mimi invites you to initiate into the Unseen powers and healing wisdom of spirit communication through:

  • Core Shamanic + Animistic Practices

  • Intuition + Psychic Development

  • Chaos Magick

  • Earth-based Tarot of the Motherpeace Deck

  • Ancient Chinese Mysticism

  • Plant Spirit Healing

The Modules are available through self-study, with the option to book Private Mentorship sessions with Mimi at a preferred rate. You will re-member your depth, learn how to live in connection with the supernatural, and shapeshift into your next unique expansion through your intuitive gifts and the hidden powers of the Cosmos.

MYSTERY MENTORSHIP INCLUDES:

FLEXIBILITY + ACCESSIBILITY:
The Mystery Mentorship program is entirely online. In addition, the core materials and content provided during your mentorship are available to you in perpetuity. Tuition is available via payment plan. Partial Ceremonie Scholarships are also available from time to time; please email info@shopceremonie.com to inquire if it’s currently available.

EXPERT MENTORSHIP:
Taking you from foundational knowledge to your full proficiency, the occultic and magick-based wisdom is portioned into segments so you can go at your own pace (some go at a frequency of 1 lesson a week, others multiple in a sitting).

ADVANCEMENT + FLUENCY:
Recorded self-accountability sessions designed to sharpen your intuition, symbolic interpretation, divination, and conjuring skills. Whether you are seeking depth, acceleration, or mastery, you will be stretched, supported, and grow in confidence.

PRE-REQUISITE ESSENTIALS:
Free access to the online “Introduction to Core Shamanic Journeying” On Demand course, and discussion of ethics, spiritual equity and values to establish the bedrock of your learning.


TAILORED ELECTIVES:
Free access to select topics from the canon of On Demand E-Courses. 

SUPPORTIVE PRACTICES:
An integration of group readings, Wu occultic tools, core shamanic journeying, spell prompts, plant spirit healing recipes, altar and dream work, recommended reading list, auric rituals, and more.

INDEPENDENCE + COMMUNITY:
The Mystery Mentorship is completed individually, but in the context of a larger container of folks studying from all over the world. The learning is further enriched as we grow from each other’s practices and have an opportunity to be part of a spiritual family. Additionally, there is a Peer Practicum component in each Module that’s designed to reinforce your learning in a way that will stick, and hold you in compassionate accountability. (Note Peer Practicum exists only when the sessions are offered live and are not available via self-study).

testimonials

For an in-depth discussion about how the Mystery Mentorship has facilitated deep healing, connection with the Unseen, and transformation, have a listen to a podcast recording between two apprentices, Ellen Wong (co-founder of Daughters brand) and Shengyin Gui (founder of Haus of Five), on Woo Knew? Podcast (an engaging podcast that highlights many BIPOCs in the wellness space in a mature and cross-disciplinary way). Listen HERE.
“I just wanted to say thank you for this beautiful space that you've held for all of us. I hadn't yet written my testimonial because I feel the moment I write something, I'm only going want to write more. [The Mystery Mentorship] has been so potent, so magical, and it really, truly asks us to confront ourselves in the most authentic, genuine and loving way. And I find it to be so special, so thank you.”

"I'd like you to know I enjoyed the Fire module thoroughly, and I learned way more than I ever expected. With the practices we explored, and the confidence that you transmit through your teachings, I've managed to set off some significant changes in my life and I'm committed to riding the wave through..."

“I had the pleasure of interviewing Mimi on my podcast recently, when I learned about her Mystery Mentorship offering. I knew nothing about shamanic journeying or altar work and it was during the interview that I first heard the term Chaos Magick. But I now 100% believe that Mimi and her world is a gift from the Universe. In the short time I have worked with her and been in this program, I have opened up a whole new connection to Spirit that I never knew existed. I’ve now journeyed six times, met my Key Spirit Ally and Psychopomp! Her knowledge and wisdom is insanely vast, and I appreciate how upfront and real she is. Mimi has become a role model for me, defying all the trends and images you conjure in your mind when you think “shamanic witch.” Magic is something I never thought I would be interested in but find myself growing increasingly curious the more I learn and experience. Mimi's unapologetic approach to her shamanic practice and her truth makes her an incredible teacher. So grateful to have been brought to this unique spirit.”

"I don’t think I have words to express how much joining the MM [Mystery Mentorship] has impacted my life. I’ve spent the last several years dabbling in a lot of spiritual work, but never really finding anything that fit. This is really the work that is putting me back in touch with myself, empowering me to get to the root for myself, instead of tying me to a certain program or healer. Things in my life were shaken up during fire & water, and the beginning of the year was fairly difficult for me. But I found that I had tools and practices to anchor me during these storms, that helped me through another transformation. I’m finding I can much better help myself, answer my own questions, instead of looking outward for advice or answers constantly."

"Thank you with all my heart, Mimi. It's amazing the 'coincidences' I'm noting. ...I'm just in shock and crying. Thank you so much and xie xie."

“ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO APPRENTICE WITH ME?”

— A NOTE FROM MIMI

Thank you for your interest in Ceremonie’s Mystery Mentorship program. Please be aware that if you embark upon this course of study, apprentices are not students that I will manage. When you apply to be my apprentice, what I will be assessing is your readiness to be radically honest, release your excuses, and drop the parts of you that prevent you from living in your fullest seen and unseen powers. You will be pushed, you will be stretched, you might cry, you may think you don’t have it in you — but the way into effective shamanic and occult work is through abandonment, authenticity, and moving through one’s darkness. 

Mystery Mentorship is a portal through which you can maximize your personal potential, release your ego, fall deeply in love with yourself, re-learn healthy intimacy, grow in confidence, commit to self-growth, confront your demons, and live in connection with the supernatural. This mentorship will not ask you to become the perfect person. This mentorship asks you to be you — whole and glorious, and perhaps a version of you that you don’t yet know, but is you nonetheless. 

Enter through this portal with respect, and you will be met with honour.

Enter through this portal with willingness and openness, and you will be met with open arms.

Enter through this portal with a commitment to yourself, and you will experience my commitment to you.

Tenderly and fiercely,

Mimi

About Mimi

About Mimi

Welcome!

My name is Mimi Young, and I am a Han Taiwanese Canadian residing on the unceded and traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations – what is otherwise known as Vancouver, Canada.

I am also a spirit communicator, animist and occultist, and my joy is to be a container and pathway for you to re-approach and restore intimacy with yourself and with the Unseen. By doing so, you can respond to the truth of who you are today and unfolding to tomorrow.

Though I’ve been aware of my psychic gifts my whole life, I began a conscious integration of myself through a chance shamanic encounter during five months of bedrest while pregnant with my second child. I also see my diverse career background in design, education, and clean tech, as data points into an intersectional, contextual, and relational spiritual expression. 

Whether you seek to walk with the Unseen through a plant potion from my Skin + Aura collection, to study a single esoteric topic via my On-Demand Courses, or to enroll in a more in-depth magickal study through my Mystery Mentorship program or other series, my priority is to offer you grounded, practice-based expertise rooted in personal experience and ancestry. (In ancient Chinese traditions, this multi-disciplinary metaphysical practice is called 巫 – Wu or Wuism). 

I have held space and led seekers and practitioners from all over the world in my Mystery Mentorship program and retreats, as well as collaboratively with brands including goop, Almost 30, Spirit House Collective, and Tokyo Smoke. In the press and on podcasts, my work has been celebrated by Vogue, goop, Harper’s Bazaar, Refinery29, Hey Girl, So You Think You’re Intuition, Healers, Living Open AND MORE.

Folks who have worked with me describe me as welcoming, engaging, deepening, and transformative.

As I say in my unconventional WORKING WITH MIMI TERMS,

Walk with me with respect, and you will be met with honour.

Walk with me with willingness and openness, and you will be met with open heart and open arms.

Walk with me with honesty, and you will have my heart.

Yours,

Mimi
