An Embodied Dialogue with the Internalized Colonizer

With embodied guidance, systemic family constellations, ceremony, practical wisdom, experiential dialogue, and ancestral prayers, this retreat invites you to be with others in a nature-based setting to:


  • Disentangle the relationship between belonging, race, ancestry, and power.
  • Be strengthened by family and ancestral histories.
  • Re-member invisible truths held in the body.
  • Reclaim belonging, remembering that our human family is nature itself.
  • Learn how the shadows of colonialism influence our livelihoods, families, work, health, economy, organizations, and communities.
  • Recognize and shift patterns of taking what there is no right to take.
  • Unleash creativity.
  • Access ancestral strength to support us in facing the future on solid ground.


This retreat is especially relevant for those:


  •  seeking ways to be strengthened by the human experience and North American landscape as individuals and a collective.
  • eager to disentangle the relationship between belonging, race, ancestry, power, gender, “otherness,” politics, and democracy.
  • desiring to acknowledge fields of injustice in ways that promote restoration of belonging, order, and balance.
  • women and men seeking greater collaboration and shared responsibility and partnership.
  •  new and seasoned in the constellation field.
  • who are healing arts professionals, desiring greater consciousness, and/or future ancestors. 


Yep, that’s all of us ~ we’re all in it together.
