Today, during our Wildoria production meeting, I got put on the spot and was asked to share a little motivation with the team. What came to me was simple: Return to your WHY.
When we’re busy building something, it’s easy to get lost in the schedules, deadlines, problems, and endless to-do lists and forget why we said yes in the first place.
I shared a story from my early days with ARISE Festival. The way I first connected with former producers Paul and Tierro was by showing up for the "chain of love" trash pickup in 2013.
My advice to the new Wildoria team today was: If you’re going to be “seen” doing something on site, be seen picking up trash. Because how we lead by example and show up matters. Festivals come and go, but theland remembers us long after the event is over.
Mālama ʻāina - honor and care for the land.
That’s what is living in my heart and soul as we get closer to Wildoria, and as I continue to juggle all these moving parts! I’m genuinely excited about the mix of gatherings and experiences we’re featuring in this issue.
If you have art, décor, wellness products, treatments, or another creative offering that belongs inside a spa at a music festival, I’d still love to hear from you. We may still have room for a few more majestic unicorns to help bring The Springs to life. Reply to this email for info.

Inside her Photoshop Mastery Live, you will be going deeper than tools and techniques; you will be creating tarot cards from scratch, learning the symbolism behind every suit, every archetype, every color choice, and how to translate that language onto the digital canvas.
🔮 New to Photoshop or brushing up your skills? This is for you. 🔮 Ready to bring your visions to life? This is for you. 🔮 Starts September 9th, live every Wednesday at 12:00 p.m. PST, 90 minutes a session, for eight weeks.
📍 Vali Soul Sanctuary 6717 Valmont Road, Boulder, CO 80301
Join us Thursday for a very special New Moon Sound Healing Journey as we gather to envision what we desire for ourselves, our communities, and our planet.
“For where two or more are gathered in my name, there I am with them…”
There is something powerful about coming together with shared intention. As we continue integrating the energies and lessons of eclipse season, this Virgo New Moon invites us to refine our routines, reconnect with what truly matters, and consciously create habits that support where we are headed.
What are you ready to heal, improve, or create?
Are you living as the fullest expression of yourself?
What kind of relationships and communities do you desire?
How do you envision our collective future and the health of our Earth?
What are you being called to learn, experience, or contribute?
Where we place our focus, we direct our energy. What we take action toward, we cultivate.
Together, we’ll strip away some of the noise and return to simplicity, truth, authenticity, and inner knowing — envisioning from a soul-centered place.
Please bring a notebook and blue pen. We’ll spend time journaling and reflecting on what we wish to call forward. You’re also welcome to simply sit, meditate, and receive.
We’ll begin with a discussion and intention-setting before transitioning into a transcending Sound Healing Journey.
Each gathering is unique to those who attend. Come as you are, open your heart, and allow yourself to flow within this sacred ceremony. ✨
TICKETS: $44 advance purchase required
Bring plenty of cushion yoga/camping mat, blankets, pillows, and anything you need to get cozy. You may also bring a journal and blue pen.
Proceeds also support SoundLight Foundation, providing Jin Shin Jyutsu and Sound Healing scholarships to those needing financial assistance.

📍 Live Online Masterclass + Experiential Practice + Community Circle
Have you been feeling like something inside you is changing faster than you know how to integrate? Maybe you’re more sensitive, your emotions feel closer to the surface, your intuition is getting louder, or old relationships, routines, and identities no longer fit.
Awakening can be beautiful and expansive, but it can also feel confusing, overwhelming, and lonely. This 90-minute virtual experience is for the space between who you have been and who you are becoming.
Together, we’ll explore how to move from awakening into integration, transforming heightened awareness, sensitivity, and life changes into greater self-trust, wisdom, purpose, and embodied leadership.
During Our Time Together, You Will:
Identify and better understand your ascension symptoms
Explore the gap between spiritual awareness and embodied transformation
Experience Anistara’s Discover Your Superpowers Practice
Uncover the potential wisdom or gift within a current challenge
Shift from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What is this teaching me?”
Clarify your Point B—how the next version of you wants to live, create, serve, and lead
Connect with a conscious community that gets it

The Return Retreat on the Big Island of Hawaiʻi is designed for the woman who is ready to embody the love she knows she was born for, no longer willing to compromise the vastness of who she is, and longing to reclaim her inner freedom released from the weight of unresolved grief, both old and recent, and from the lingering imprints of childhood and early adult adversity, once and for all.
Guided by Yemaya Indira, a Somatic Trauma Healing practitioner with over 35 years of experience, trained by one of the pioneers of the somatic movement, and rooted in rich spiritual traditions and the expressive arts, The Return is co-led by the accomplished musician, poet, and DJ Shoshana B.
Together, they offer a transformative 5-night, 6-day journey that promises you will leave with a deeper, freer, more authentic relationship with yourself.
Expect deep, compassionate space-holding, clear, intuitive guidance to help you uncover your blind spots and challenges, and profoundly transformative mystical alchemy that will turn your grief into your greatest gift.
A renewal for both body and spirit, The Return is held at Sundari Gardens, a spacious, magical sanctuary in the southeast of the Big Island of Hawaiʻi. Created with a Vedic touch, it is a place where yoga, dance, qigong, Watsu (water healing), and writing are inspired by the wisdom of the land.
All-inclusive except airfare, Watsu, and private bodywork sessions.
No prior experience is required. Enrollment is limited to six practitioners.
