Like the seeds of the Earth, we were made for this.

 

Together we’ll kindle and stoke the flames of transformation and call on the spirits of river and forest to show us the way.

 

For those in transition and tumult; for those curious and courageous; for those at the door…

Threshold Crossing is Medicine Work

You already know how to do this. 

You’ve been doing it for a long, long time. 

Threshold Crossing is Medicine Work

You already know how to do this. 

You’ve been doing it for a long, long time. 

This is our compass.

Through embodiment we remember the innate wisdom we all carry deep within the body.

 

Through community we remember who we are and see ourselves through another’s eyes. 

 

Through wilderness we remember the profound intelligence and beauty of the more-than-human world. 

 

Through ritual we remember how to speak in a language older than words and weave together the realms of the individual, the community, the more-than-human and the sacred. 

transformative potential of 

sacred plant ceremony

Wild Within is a sacred container, where the work is facilitated and deepened through communion with plant allies in the context of a lineage of shamanism and sacred ceremony. 

 

Ceremony is where our individual journeys intertwine with the collective journey we are on together as a community and as Earth-dwellers. It is a space simultaneously in time and out of it. A space that heals the body, speaks to the heart, opens the mind, and nourishes spirit and soul. It is a vessel for transformation, death, growth and deep alchemy. 

 

It is a place to come as you are. It is a place to deepen the bonds of belonging. It is a place of being and becoming. 

 

It is where we do the serious and joyful work of exploring what it means to walk on this Earth. 

 

It is a rare place these days indeed. 

 

And it is your birthright.

Step into ceremony

“Ceremony is how we remember to remember."

-Robin Wall Kimmerer

This work could be particularly potent for you if:

You find yourself at a pivotal time in your life 

You are longing to remember Truth within yourself

You are ready for a change

You want to create space to (re)connect to what truly matters

You are yearning for community to hold you in your human journey

This is not something to figure out.

It is a journey that must be lived.

We don't serve anyone by being small.

Now is the time to listen to your heart, trust your feet and step into the life that is beckoning you.

The Sanctuary

The retreat center is hidden away in a 300 acre pocket of  ancient, old-growth rain forest where creek meets river. Cedar, fern, trillium, bear, lion, salmon, eagle and many others call this place home.

 

Lodging options include tucked away cabins overlooking the creek, bell tents, and custom built tiny homes. All participants will have access to the beautiful communal lodge with dining and outdoor areas, a fire pit, showers, a stunning wood deck overlooking the river, a newly built cedar bath house next to the river with cedar hot tub, cold plunge claw foot tub and sauna, a river beach, a pristine swimming hole at the confluence of the creek and river and of course, wild forest trails that lead from your door.
