Financial Support

Our mission is to make all of our programs accessible. Every fee-based offering has a limited number of pay-what-you-can spots available to support self-identified people of color, members of marginalized groups (queer people, transgender people, and  people with disabilities) and those in financial need (those for whom the cost to attend is not financially possible). 

These spots are offered on a first come, first served basis. Please pay at the highest level you can afford. In order for this support to be available, we rely on those who can afford to pay the full price to do so.

Find out if spots are available by clicking REGISTER NOW on the event you are interested in.

Safety 

We work to protect the safety of all students. We reserve the right to remove any student from any class, sitting group, retreat, or any event if the student is disruptive to the safe learning environment we maintain for all.

Cancellation & Refunds

Refund and Event Policies

We are deeply grateful to our community members for their understanding, patience, and support through this challenging and life changing chapter of our journey together. We are eager to move into the next phase of our adventure. In keeping with the principals of the dharma that underlies all of our activities, primarily ahimsa  (do no harm), we are requiring that all attendees be fully vaccinated in order to attend any in-person event. If you certify that you meet this requirement please select ‘yes’ on the registration page. This requirement is for the initial stage of reopening and we are looking forward to practicing together once again in-person! Please register early, max capacity is 10 students. 

To offer or join a ride share, click Sign-Up to the left. Thank you for supporting fellow practitioners.

Join us for Forestkind’s first in-person soundbath since the beginning of the pandemic. We will be coming together at InsightLA’s Benedict Canyon location where you will be immersed in a lovingkindness meditation and sound bath to offer the heart, mind and body a nurturing space to rest and be soothed. 

The event will include an hour long sound bath followed by reflective journaling or drawing, writing metta wishes followed by grounding tea. Please bring a journal or sketchbook and any additional supportive items. Benedict Canyon has blankets, chairs, and meditation cushions, but we encourage you to bring anything that will help bring additional ease and comfort (ex. a small pillow, eye mask, or small blanket).

This location is not wheelchair accessible but the soundath portion will be available on our Instagram Live for anyone who wishes to participate from home for any reason. Follow us at @forestkind.

We will have all windows and doors open and very limited capacity of only a maximum of 10 participants due to Covid. 

We welcome all beings of all abilities.
