Wisdom Weekend - Forest Path Ceremonies - Jan 24 & 25 - Bend, OR

We offer our signature ceremonies to serve as a ground for healing, learning, illumination and transformation.

This special weekend will be in a new location in Bend, OR, where we have been invited by close friends to a serene retreat space, tucked away in the woods at the base of the Three Sisters mountains in Oregon. This beautifully restored barn has been home to numerous ceremonies, retreats, and traditional drum-making workshops. Its spacious interior and excellent acoustics make it a powerful setting for sacred gatherings.

In January, the landscape will transform into a winter wonderland, while inside the center a wood-burning stove keeps the space warm and cozy. Participants are asked to bring personal comfort items, such as mats, blankets, pillows, and sleeping bags, to create their own nest. The property has multiple acres, including a labyrinth, which may or may not be visible depending on snow. Weather permitting, there is plenty of space outdoors to relax between ceremonies, while there is guaranteed warmth inside. For those interested in movement, a hiking trail is a 10-minute drive away.

We have hosted and guided these rituals for several years and served thousands of glasses of sacrament to people from all walks of life. With this type of work, it is important for everyone involved to always seek to uphold a high standard of integrity, safety and awareness with regards to the individual and the community at large.

We take care in all areas we see fit and encourage those looking for an experience to look a little deeper as it is not always enough to seek peak experiences or quick fixes. Ours is a humble path of the Forest and of the heart. Our altar is one of deep prayer, communion and contemplation. People who work with us come to study and learn the path or simply to receive the work that is done. We encourage individuals to be well informed, in good health and equipped with some basic meditation and awareness practices before navigating these spaces with us.

Arrival will be between 3-4pm to the center, and ceremonies will run from approximately 5pm-12pm each night. We will close each night with soup, and then share a potluck style breakfast each morning. On the final morning we will have an integration circle before saying goodbye.
