Sacred Threshold Songs to Sing & Receive with The Threshold Weavers
Thursday, October 1st | 6 PM - 8 PM | True Nature Kiva
Sliding Scale: $20-$50
A community gathering to empower our voices together
Five singers from a Threshold Choir bring their practiced harmonies into the ceremonial heart of the Kiva. Songs that have been sung at bedsides, at birth, at grief circles, and at celebrations of life. Songs that know how to hold what words cannot.
Harvest + Turning Inward: We will harvest summer's insights and carry forward the Songs of Resilience we planted within ourselves to radiate and ripple outward to others. Songs of hope, nourishment, gratitude, listening inward and gathering in close to connect more deeply with the things and people we love.

Self Realization Fellowship: Monthly Community Meditation
Sunday, October 4th | 9:00am-10:30am | True Nature Meditation Room

All are welcome to attend. The monthly SRF Community Meditation offering is based on the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda.
Through the steady practice of yoga meditation, it is possible to experience a deepening sense of peace, love, compassion, and joy. As inner transformation unfolds, its positive influence naturally extends outward—first to family and community, and eventually to the world at large.
“Reform yourself, and you will reform thousands.” — Paramahansa Yogananda
The benefits of the scientific methods of yoga he taught do not depend on belief, but arise from direct personal experience of the Divine.

Early Bird $45 through Sept. 30th | Standard Rate $55 | Generosity Rate $75
A shamanic journey to come home to what you already know - and recognize what makes it difficult to trust yourself.
There are seasons when we know a part of our life is asking to change, even when we can't yet see exactly where it is leading. We can get caught in the details. Turn a question over and over. Listen to everyone else's opinions. Feel overwhelmed by the possibilities. Or stay in the blur because we haven't given ourselves enough time and space to hear what we actually know. Your Way Home is a sacred afternoon devoted to deep listening.

As we attune to the shifting energies of the natural world, we begin to recognize these same movements within ourselves—cycles of growth, expression, release, rest, and renewal.

Each gathering is a guided descent into breath, body, and spirit—woven through intentional breathing, gentle movement, sound, and reflective journaling.
This is a space to let go, to listen deeply, and to remember your place within the greater whole.
Financial Awakening: Conscious Wealth Reset
Saturday, October 10th | 9am - 12pm | True Nature Kiva
Free, Registration Required
Most financial stress isn’t a math problem—it’s a relationship problem. Numbers only matter insofar as they support your dreams and values. Many people lack clarity about what truly matters and often reconnect with their priorities only during moments of crisis or major life transitions. Financial Awakening helps you gain clarity from within while offering practical, fiduciary-grade strategies to transform your relationship with money.
This workshop teaches you how to make conscious, values-based financial decisions—especially when emotion, noise, and life changes might otherwise derail your judgment. You’ll learn how to turn thoughtful decisions into a repeatable system that supports what matters most in your life.

Release old stories about your body, restore your connection to your physical self, and feel empowered in your body, no matter what.
From a very young age, women are told how their bodies should look, and what they should do and be in order to achieve that physical state. As a result, the connection to our intuition, the way we take care of ourselves, and the ability to offer our bodies acceptance and unconditional love has been muted.
Join Kat Libby and Marina Harmon for a transformative mini-retreat to release the old stories you tell yourself about your body and your worth. In this half-day session, you'll restore your connection to your physical self and leave feeling confident and empowered in your body, no matter what.
