Tending Revolution in Soulful LifeApplications Open Through Mid-July/Wednesdays, 1:30-3:00pm MT
This is an opportunity to work the rich loam of soul on an ongoing basis in a community of practice and care. We draw upon a wealth of materials, including work our advisor, Francis Weller, has presented over the years. Over the past four+ years, in our network and live Convivium calls we’ve built a rich and deep communal web with connections all over the world. It’s a house of belonging that’s soulful and sacred, a unique experience that’s co-held with compassion and reciprocity.
Our July – September theme is Tending Revolution: Grief Tending Toward Collective Liberation. Desiree Adaway, Naila Francis, Sarah JS, Jordan Lyon, and Francis Weller will be joining us as guest guides for this series.

UN/KNOWN: Emergent Space for Grief & Soul in Uncertain TimesAugust 16th & 17th, 2025/Lone Hawk Farm, Longmont, CO
UN/KNOWN is a 2-day in-person gathering for the wild and weary, the soul-rooted and justice-oriented, the ones living close to their grief and longing. It’s a space for those who crave deeper aliveness, who are seeking connection over critique, who want to feel what it’s like to belong in times of rupture and emergence.
This is not a fully mapped-out ritual or workshop and we won’t have a fixed agenda. We’ll feel into the group field and see what wants to unfold. We’ll tend grief, soul, and collective liberation through shared presence, emergent dialogue, altar building, creative practices, and listening to the land. We’ll explore movement, rest, the Long Dark, lineage, beauty, and what collapse asks of us now.

TENDERS: A 5-day hide tanning, grief tending retreatTuesday, July 15 - Saturday, July 19, 2025/Evergreen, Colorado
Held by the beauty of Colorado’s mountains, fifteen grief tenders will gather for five transformative days of deep remembering and fortification. TENDERS is an intimate retreat and ritual for those called to work with grief in their communities. We’ll immerse ourselves in the ancient craft of hide tanning, working the hides while also working with our personal and collective griefs. We’ll be exploring what it means to both be held and to hold others.
Through ritual and shared inquiry, we’ll discover what needs to be witnessed and what needs to soften for us to show up fully for The Long Dark. Together, we’ll craft vessels from the hides we tan, each one infused with our unique medicine. These leather pouches become more than craft—they are holders of our gifts as grief tenders, fortified through ritual to carry back to our communities. This is a convergence of the wild and the sacred, where ancestral wisdom meets present calling.

Unravel | Entangle: Not-So-Curated Conversations about CollapseTuesday Evenings/6:30-7:45pm MT
Join us for intimate conversations about inhabiting these times of profound change, loss, and possibility together. Every Tuesday evening, we’ll create a communal container where uncertainty is welcomed, relationships are centered, and the mess of collapse becomes our teacher.
Through conversation, imagination, and embodied practice, we’ll gather around questions like: What if we welcomed both the unpredictable and unimaginable? What is the underculture we want to root in during this time of the Long Dark? What opens up when we shift from problem-solving to mutual learning in the face of polycrisis?
If this stirs something in you, we’d love to have you join us in this experiment. For more information: https://unravelentangle.mn.co/

Entering the Healing Ground: Grief Ritual Leadership TrainingSelf Paced Course/Online
This course emerges from over twenty-five years of experimentation in the territory of ritual process. It is an immersion in the direct application of ritual to the various conditions our communities face. While our focus is on grief rituals, the core elements of this training can extend to wider circumstances.
In a time of cultural and environmental trauma, we must revision practices of communal recalibration. Rituals were the means by which the village would re-regulate itself following any form of traumatic encounter. Recalling the “unforgotten wisdom” that resides at the core of our psychic lives, is central to finding our way through the whitewater of these times.
Adapted from our live five-month online training, this course offers teachings and experiential work that provide guidance on how to navigate the intense terrain that is ushered in by grief ritual space. Throughout each module we utilize poetry, ritual, somatic practices, and imagination to deepen your learning.
