A powerful self-healing practice, Transformative Breathwork is an active form of meditation using a simple breath pattern to move stuck energy in the body and reconnect with your true essence. During a transformative breathwork journey, we’ll begin with an opening circle to ground our energy in the space, connect as a group, and review the breathing technique.

Let go, move freely, and tap into your primal rhythm in a guided ecstatic dance journey. A carefully curated DJ set takes you on a wave of sound, designed to free the body and expand the mind. No dance experience needed—just a willingness to move, sweat, and surrender to the beat.

The lodge is always ready for a dance party, and tea n’ tarot in the sanctuary. We’ve also added a mile-long rugged hiking trail through 27 acres of redwood forest.

Practices include yoga, mindfulness meditation, reflective writing, ecstatic dance, and group process. Every activity is optional and choice-centered, allowing you to engage in ways that honor your own rhythm.
