Sacred Union is six days away from every role you play at home, for couples who are not in crisis and not willing to settle. Intentional work on yourself and your relationship, done with your safest person.
The spark is still there. Now is the time to bring it back to life.
Somewhere between careers, children, and the work of running a life, the connection that once came easily went quiet.

Talk that stays on the surfaceSchedules, kids, bills. Rarely what you actually feel.
✦
Date night that is just dinnerTime together that no longer feels like being together.
✦
Intimacy on a scheduleTouch that became routine, pressured, or rare.

Two people managing a lifePartners in logistics, missing the ones who chose each other.
Dedicated time for reconnection
Sacred Union is six days away from every role you play at home, for couples who are not in crisis and not willing to settle. Intentional work on yourself and your relationship, done with your safest person.
You will not leave with a perfect relationship.You leave knowing how to find each other again.
Closer
Closeness you can feel
Not just talked about. Felt, side by side, in the body.
Touch
Touch without pressure
A gentle practice you can keep coming back to at home.
Heard
Words that land
New ways to talk, so each of you feels heard.
Chosen
A choice, spoken aloud
You say what you choose, and you carry it home together.
Two partnerships, changed by this work.
We built this immersion because it worked for us first.
Kimberly and Jason
Founders of Ananda Lodge. Years as a firefighter paramedic left Jason carrying more than he could name. Plant medicine gave him a way to set it down, and gave them back the closeness they had lost.
Cathi and Logan
Cathi became a relationship therapist because of what she lived in her own relationship. Logan spent his career as a police officer, where men are taught not to talk about what they feel. Together they teach couples to become their own relationship therapists.
Six days, one arc.
First you come home to yourself. Then you meet each other. Then you celebrate what you rebuilt, on Valentine’s Day, with no medicine at all.
Ceremony I Thursday evening
Coming home to yourself
You sit side by side, each on your own inner path, before you meet.
Ceremony II Saturday at 5 AM
Meeting each other
At dawn as the sun rises over the Pacific, with crystal bowls, drums, and one shared intention.

After the re-choosing ritual, you sail out onto the Pacific as the sun goes down, then come back for a celebration dinner.
You will not do any of it alone.
Eight couples at most, and the same four people the whole way. Before you arrive: a confidential intake and screening for each of you. While you are here: circles, teaching and care. Once you are home: a couples consultation to help it last.

Built for couples who want more.
This is for you if…
✦You love each other and miss who you were together
✦You both choose to come, freely
✦You want tools, not just a beautiful week
✦You are ready to look at yourself, not only your partner
This is a different kind of support if…
✦You are in crisis or separating
✦There is any violence or coercion in the relationship
✦One partner is coming only to please the other
✦Either of you has contraindicated conditions or medications
Each partner completes a confidential intake and screening individually. If Sacred Union is not the right fit, we will tell you honestly and point you toward what is.
Not sure about any of this?
This is not about sitting around talking about feelings.
No one to perform for.
Nothing to share before you are ready.
Just room to breathe, a men’s circle with Logan, and time away from the noise of home.
A space to find yourself, and each other, again.
Begin with a conversation.
We start by listening: to where the two of you are, what you are hoping for, and whether Sacred Union is the right fit.
