fund a rested resistance

Support our mission to weave humanity back into our lives and workplaces through facilitating uniquely creative, somatic based rest retreats and relationship building experiences.

This fund covers scholarship applicants to practice rest during Winter Cave. It also rolls over to cover sliding scale rest spaces and BIPOC scholarships for retreats all year through By Moonlight. The fund centers BIPOC participants but does not exclude white bodied participants.

Why give?

  • ✽

    Because to rest in a capitalist world takes practice and meticulous care.”

    - Tricia Hersey

  • ✽

    Because grind culture has removed us from our bodies and our deepest desires of belonging to each other.

  • ✽

    Because you know that strong movement work is supported by emergent rituals of both letting go and celebration.

  • ✽

    Because you are brave enough to act on the need for deep care for your people at this chaotic moment in history.

  • ✽

    Because our humanity is creative and belongs in every aspect of our lives and workplaces. 

  • ✽

    Because your trust that your radical imagination of a world that is nourishing and connected is possible.

“I would have never come to meet all my different guides and protectors and energies were it not for the ways that Sojourner really creatively and playfully leads space.”

-Pascale Williams, Winter Cave Participant

“Sojourner creates a very warm and inviting container to practice reflections and connect with ones spirit. Wherever you are on your journey Sojourner meets you. I also loved the sense of belonging and extended community. ”

Veronica Giraldo, Winter Cave Participant

“I tried many new things in the Winter Cave. I created altars and engaged in grief rituals. I created and cast spells, which are now part of my morning ritual. On some days I spent more time drawing than I did writing. I was supported to drop into whatever felt good in those moments. This space offered me permission to rest and I just followed that to wherever it went. I was able to do that while being with community, it was exactly what I needed.”

-Marilou Mariko, Winter Cave Participant
