I'm excited to be heading to Joshua Tree next week on my yearly pilgrimage to set up the Healing Oasis for the Joshua Tree Music Festival.
The Healing Oasis has been my work over the past 15 years bringing healers together from all over the world to help others and one another in a setting that focuses on inclusion to promote deep healing.
The diverse healers that come with me are the best out there. I cherish their friendships and commitment to show up over and over again in festival conditions that can be harsh!
I can't wait to be dancing and relaxing under the desert stars. The festival is coming up on May 14-17 https://joshuatreemusicfestival.com/
Come and join us!

Joshua Tree Music Festival promotes personal growth through a variety of multidisciplinary workshops, such as yoga and movement, visual arts, music, and myth. A robust schedule of Kidsville activities makes JTMF one of the top family-friendly festivals in the country.

Hey Healers!

Please DM me if you are interested in being a vendor in the Healing Oasis at the Yahn Dawn Meadow Creek Festival with Pretty Lights in Buena Vista, Colorado on June 27-29.

We are opening up some spots to those who would like to join us in this beautiful valley under the magical Collegiate Peaks.

"Meadow Creek will become a transcendent playground for Pretty Lights - where music, community, and nature intertwine in a kaleidoscope of experience. Framed by 14,000-ft Collegiate Peaks, join in a weekend of mountain jams, creekside hangs, pond parties, communal expansion, and collective connection to freedom. At Meadow Creek, every visit feels like a homecoming - not to a place you’ve been before, but to a feeling you’ve always sought."

Hi Nomads,

My friend Aimee Takaya is coming to Sebastopol to share her effective and unusual modality and I thought it might really be up your alley! This practice is amazing for pain/stress relief and feeling more connected and whole in your body. I have been working with Aimee at festivals for over a year. She brings such presence and depth to her sessions and I just know this event is going to be incredibly helpful and fun!

You can save $15 with the code HEALER at checkout!

I hope you can make it! Sign up with the link below:
