Offerings & Events
Communion, ceremony, and enlightenment are integral to the healing path.
We believe that being with and having others be with us is profoundly powerful.
In community, we are lean into and transform in ways that we cannot — or don’t want to — do alone.
In collaboration with our community of healers, practitioners, and guides Shelterwood Collective offers:
Gatherings & Experiences to cultivate connection, creativity, and vitality
Process & Therapy Groups to foster brave, support spaces for communal grow
Workshops & Trainings to raise awareness and deepen learning
Rituals & Retreats to protect sacred space to integrate mind, body, and spirit
We invite you to gather, commune, and grow with us.
