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.

Refund and Event Policies

During these increasingly uncertain, stressful and transformative times, it is vital to pause, replenish ourselves and find strength and connection in practice and community. This daylong retreat will offer a space for women to embody the many beautiful qualities of the deep feminine.  Together, we will practice speaking from the heart, listening deeply to ourselves and one another, and accessing our collective wisdom in all of its diversity. Through guided meditations, gentle movement, dialogue and inquiry practice, we will  cultivate our capacity for resilience, insight, and creativity.

This daylong welcomes all self-identified women across race, ethnicity, gendered expression, ability, class, and life span, who find nourishment and inspiration in meditation and other relational and creative practices.
