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.

________

This retreat welcomes all who identify as women, gender expansive, and nonbinary who are nourished in women centered spaces. Open to both beginners and experienced practitioners.

A Sanctuary for Women’s Wisdom, Intuition, and Collective Liberation. Join us for a transformative journey at the praxis of wisdom and liberation. We intend to offer practices to tap into the energy of the sacred mother, the deep intuitive knowing, the awakening heart, and both personal and collective liberation. 

Through Insight Meditation, embodied movement, and earth-based practices, we will explore what it means to walk in wisdom, allowing our intuition to guide us and our inner strength to rise. Together, we create a sanctuary—a sacred, nourishing space where we can break free from limitations, reclaim our inherent power, and rise into the fullness of who we are meant to be, both individually and as a community.

This retreat offers a sanctuary for the soul, a place where you can rest, restore, and reconnect with the deepest parts of yourself. Held in the safety of this sacred container, we will walk together in wisdom and rise together in liberation, supporting one another as we reclaim our next embodiment of dignity, power and truth.

Registration for this retreat closes on September 21, 2025 at 11:59pm Pacific Time. If looking to join after this date, please inquire at guestservices@bigbearretreatcenter.org.
