Conscious Growth

🌿 Standing in the camas meadow at , surrounded by flowers in full bloom, brings a deep sense of awe and reverence.

This is the meadow where hundreds of us gather for the Conscious Growth Convergence, where the Spirit element comes alive through music, art, movement, ceremony, and shared presence.

To return here in April and witness the camas thriving is deeply humbling. After years of gathering on this land, dancing across these roots, the camas continues to grow back stronger.

It’s a reminder that when we are in right relationship with the land, our presence can support regeneration rather than depletion.

Camas has been a sacred food source for the Kalapuya people for millennia, carefully tended and harvested as part of a reciprocal relationship with the land.

Being in this meadow now invites a deeper awareness of that responsibility, and of what it means to build relationship with a place over time.

Join us this fall at the 2026 Conscious Growth Convergence to dance on these roots together and be part of what is growing here. 🌱

🌿 We are thrilled to announce the 2026 Conscious Growth Convergence, returning October 1-4 to Lost Valley Education Center, on the ancestral lands of the Kalapuya. We gather once again through music, education, art, ceremony, and shared presence, rooted in relationship with land and one another.

This year's theme, Rooting into Resilience, asks us to reflect on the foundations that truly sustain us: our relationships, our cultures, our ancestral lineages, our connection to place, and the networks of care that exist beneath the surface.

In a time of political, ecological, and social upheaval, this convergence invites us to come together and listen deeply. To remember that resilience is not built in isolation, but through what we tend together.

The theme is deeply inspired by the camas that grows in the Lost Valley meadow, a traditional food source of the Kalapuya people, whose root bulbs were carefully harvested and eaten as nourishment.

Its medicine reminds us that life is sustained below the surface, where deep roots, patience, and relationships create the conditions for healthy growth.

Rooting into Resilience calls us to turn toward our own roots. To strengthen our mycelial networks of community and mutual support. To remember that endurance is not about surviving alone, but about tending what connects us.

Join us for the 2026 Conscious Growth Convergence as we care for what is essential, both seen and unseen, so that we may remain grounded, connected, and resilient together.
