gather
These regular gatherings are an opportunity to set down your burdens and tune into your body. Each circle is guided by the wisdom found in the season, lessons that are profoundly relevant for our modern times. The guidance found in these revolving themes is asking to be integrated into our lives, now more than ever, and this is the space to do that together.

experience
Join us as we deepen our connection to the land and reclaim our interdependence on community. The land provides and this connection is resistance in the face of corporate dependence. Learn how to make bread on your schedule, ferment any vegetables that come through your CSA and how to plan your garden in a way that is in sync with the Cascadia bioregion.
the Mystery
One-on-one opportunities to be supported and empowered while walking a path towards integration of a mystical experience. Meet the right practitioner to tease out the lessons that need to be woven into your life. This can include relationship with nature, creating embodied ritual, sitting with resonate myths, ancestry research, somatic relating, breathwork, sound healing and so much more. Each individual's experience is as unique as the path they walk.

The great wild force of our own psyches means to place its paw on our shadows, and in that manner she claims us as her own. Once the Wild Woman snags our shadows, we belong to ourselves again, we are in our own right environ and our rightful home.

The beauty of nature insists on taking its time. Everything is prepared. Nothing is rushed. The rhythm of emergence is a gradual slow beat always inching its way forward; change remains faithful to itself until the new unfolds in the full confidence of true arrival.

The stories we’ve been living by for the past few centuries – the stories of male superiority, of progress and growth and domination – don’t serve women and they certainly don’t serve the planet. Stories matter, you see.
