Survivorship Collective Retreat Schedule & Details

What to expect

Address: 9999 NE Worden Hill Rd, Dundee OR 97115 (PDX)

The Survivorship Collective Retreat is a community-held healing experience grounded in ceremony and respect for individual autonomy. It offers space to slow down, reconnect, and engage in care on your own terms.

We blend guided moments, open exploration, and space to reflect—so the experience feels both focused and fluid.

❋ Intentional Structure

Connection is a core part of the process. You’ll learn just as much from the group as from the content itself.

❋ Collaborative Energy
❋ Expert Facilitation

Led by experienced, state-licensed guides who know how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.

Our retreats prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.

❋ A Supportive Space

Day Three

Big Ceremony Day

Ceremony day is held within a state-regulated, licensed framework that integrates Indigenous wisdom, scientific understanding, and medical support. The experience is guided by lineage-informed ceremonial practice and supported by licensed, trauma-informed facilitators, medical screening, and clear safety protocols. This creates a grounded and trustworthy container where you can turn inward with confidence. You are invited to move at your own pace, ask for support when needed, and meet whatever arises with curiosity rather than expectation. The emphasis is on presence, care, and being well supported throughout the experience.

Integration

Integration offers space to gently weave the experience into your body, emotions, and daily life. Through practices such as qigong, creative expression, time in nature, and guided group reflection, you are invited to explore what feels most supportive for you. There is also room for solitude and rest. This day honors that integration happens in many ways and at many paces, and that meaning often emerges through a balance of movement, creativity, quiet, and community.

Closing Circle

.The closing circle is a time to come back together in community. We gather to reflect, share what feels right to share, and gently begin the transition back into everyday life. This space honors each person’s autonomy and experience, whether that includes words, silence, or simple presence. The emphasis is on integration, gratitude, and being witnessed by others as you carry what you’ve encountered forward.
