Guiding Principles

  • Holding Safe and Sacred Space

    A top priority is holding space that feels safe and sacred to all those involved. Participants can expect to feel welcomed, honored, and held as you are, however you show up. Special emphasis is placed on embracing the sacred within us and around us.

  • Celebrating Life and Embracing Beauty

    The world is full of beauty and wonder! Together, let’s celebrate the incredible gift of being alive and open our hearts to the awesome beauty that surrounds us. Part of healing is becoming present to all that is good, and there is A LOT of good in this world!

  • Honoring the Self

    Every single one of us is beautiful. Within each of us is a bottomless depth of worthiness, enoughness, and perfection. Let us honor our inner Divinity and welcome our whole selves into our hearts with love and acceptance. Embrace yourself into your loving arms and know that you are safe.

  • Opening to Spirit

    In the Heart exists a portal into the Divine Source. Each of us has within us this doorway into wholeness, unconditional love, oneness, and peace. We will work together to cultivate the opening to Spirit and the deep healing that this connection brings. Let us connect joyfully with our Greater Being!

  • Gentleness and Compassion

    Harshness and abrasiveness close the Heart, while gentleness and compassion open the Heart. Much of our world can seem inconsiderate, which leads to even more toxicity in response. Let us break this cycle and instead choose gentleness and compassion. Let us be instruments of the opening Heart. Let us be agents of Love.

  • Deepening Connection and Building Relationship

    We are beings of relationship. Our wellness and our happiness are strongly linked to our level of connectivity. When we connect, we expand and we heal. Let us work to deepen our connection and build our relationship with ourselves, our community, and the Natural World. In doing so, we give ourselves the gift of well-being, and can feel more full in our experience of life.

  • Growing our Capacity for Love

    Love is all around us and deep within us. Love is the fabric within which we exist, and is the foundation from which all things arise. As humans, we have the ability to cultivate our awareness and grow our capacity to embody this Love. By doing so, we bring healing to all Beings. By doing so, we bring Beauty and Compassion into the world. And by doing so, we become Free.

  • Accompaniment

    We are in this together! Let us walk side-by-side on this journey toward greater peace and freedom. Let us help each other, support each other, teach each other, and learn from each other. Let us link arms and link hearts and step together toward a full-hearted life.
