Our Mission, Our Values
Embody Retreats Mission Statement
Embody Retreats is dedicated to providing accessible and transformative events grounded in the power of community, spirit, and the healing arts. We embrace diversity and aim to provide intentional spaces where all layers, stories, and paths are honored. Our containers are deeply rooted in the interdependence of earth, collective, and self-care. Through the exploration of somatic and energetic practice, authentic communication, and right-relationship, we nourish our growth. Embody retreats is a sacred space for the liberation of self-expression, connection, and amplification of truth.
Our Values and Agreements
Honor the history and energy of the land we practice on. We honor the original indigenous people who lived in sacred reciprocity with each site we visit, and the land/animal/plant spirits who continue to reside there. When we build a deeper relationship with the land, we create a deeper relationship with ourselves and each others.
Embrace each other’s unique journey by avoiding judgment or comparison. We are all on different paths and deserve to be witnessed in our truth.
We respect the diversity of cultures, lineages and backgrounds represented in this retreat. Call in, rather than call out. If someone’s beliefs or opinions feel harmful, approach with curiosity and ask for clarity.
The stories we share at Embody Retreats are sacred and valuable. Hold each other’s shares in confidentiality and honor the privacy of your community members.
We invite you to listen with an open heart and mind, without judgment or interruption. Allow others to feel seen and heard.
Take care of yourself by resting when needed, eating nourishing food, and hydrating yourself. Remember, self-care is an act of love towards yourself and others.
Be mindful of the present moment. Embrace each experience with an open heart and mind. Please avoid using phones or other electronic devices during the retreat.
Being present and in your body is powerful medicine. We invite you to embrace a sober healing journey during the retreat. By doing so, we create a supportive space for everyone.
Honor and respect each other's physical, emotional, and energetic boundaries. Seek consent before engaging in touch or physical contact. Let us cultivate trust and respect within our community.
