Join us for a 5-day, 4-night retreat and pilgrimage to Oregon, in the enchanting coastal rainforest of Cape Perpetua. The Native Americans inhabited this area beginning 6,000 years ago. This Pacific temperate rainforest has the highest levels of biomass of any place on earth. It is Oregon’s largest Marine Reserve, and also one of its most biodiverse. We will explore our inner and outer nature with Grof Holotropic breathwork, guided hikes, majestic views and experiencing the highest vistas on the Oregon coast.
We will create community in the quaint coastal town of Yachats, Oregon and share a 5-bedroom beach house with an ocean view. Yachats (pronounced YAH-hots) is nicknamed “the gem of the Oregon coast, and is only minutes from Cape Perpetua.
