“I am so grateful for this journey! It was so deeply aligned with my life and I was able to tap into lesser known/acknowledged parts of me, parts of other beings, and parts of nature.” -Shayla
What you can Expect: As with most soul-work, there are moments of joy and moments of challenge. When you face fears and internal wounds of childhood, separation from Self/earth/community, there can be grief as well as healing and renewal. This journey is saying yes to participating in the full spectrum of Life. We weave a strong basket of support, and if you truly make the time for this in your life - it will be deeply rewarding! You will be supported by your main Guides Sarai and Caitlin, as well as honored guest teachers who will join us throughout our time together.
What We Expect from You: A full YES to this journey. We have designed our trips and calls to be spaced out enough that this can fit snugly into an otherwise full life. And, it is essential that you are present for all gatherings and new moon calls, as each one builds upon the next. Before applying, be sure to read through all program details and determine if you truly have the spaciousness, both in your physical world and within your heart, to dive into this journey.
Covid-19: Once our group is formed, we will assess current conditions and decide as a group the best way to have a safe and sanitary time together. It is our priority to stay safe during our time together. We have successfully run trips with 12+ people in the backcountry during the pandemic without incident and with everyone feeling safe.
We look forward to hearing from you!
