Sound Bath
“A sound bath is a meditative acoustic sound concert that washes away stress and brings you into a state of relaxation, activating your body’s own natural system of self-healing.“
– Ana Netanel
Beneath the blue sky and surrounded by wolf teachers, join us for a Sound Bath that will stir your soul, silence the chaos, and reconnect you to the wild rhythm within.

Finding Your Howl Women's 4-Week Program
Across three weekly online gatherings, we’ll explore the inner work of Finding Your Howl through self-reflection, self-compassion, parts work, building connection within our pack, and learning from some of the wolves themselves.
For our one-day immersive experience, we’ll have spacious time to slow down and listen deeply. The day will include Council in Nature, an Ancestor Walk, and Medicine Sits with the Wolves. Through relational practices of speaking and listening from the heart, we’ll strengthen our courage to trust and express our voice. Good food, nature, and the presence of the pack will nourish us throughout, all in service of Reclaiming Our Howl.
