Access & Inclusion:
We are committed to making this work safe and accessible to all people that are called to join, and to maintaining a community culture safe from racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia.
We reserve spaces in our circle for queer BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) and offer scholarship to ensure access.
Currently, the space we work in has a flight of stairs to gain entrance and no elevator. It should be noted the burning of dried herbs at different moments throughout the ceremony is expected. Please share with us any access needs you have that would enable you to join us, and we will do anything we can to meet these needs!
Accommodations: Staying overnight in the ceremony space is welcomed. Some snacks and an evening meal will be provided. Please consider bringing healthy snacks to share.  Â
Suggested Exchange & Sliding Scale: Â One night Samadhi $275/$375/$475+ Toad Activation $222 for Saturday participants $275-$1111+ sliding scale for those coming for Sunday only.
Only 1 ticket is necessary for registration. Additional information including finalizing payment is provided in the confirmation email.
In order to sustainably facilitate access to as many people as possible despite possible economic challenges, we are using a sliding scale system for suggested exchanges. We trust you to evaluate your economic situation, the value of what you will be receiving, and determine the most equitable exchange for your circumstances. Some guidelines to consider in choosing your exchange: Â Â Â
·   Higher exchange (475+) covers all costs, direct and operational, allows for further investment in the church, and subsidizes those without the discretionary income to afford standard tickets. If retreat costs are rarely a concern and discretionary spending is abundant, you may consider offering a higher exchange.Â
· The middle way (375) covers the costs of the retreat and larger organizational operations. Those with discretionary income generally fall in this range.Â
·  The lower cost (275) covers the costs of the retreat, but not all larger organizational operations. Those with limited discretionary spending will fall in this range.
When the lower tier is an obstacle to attending ceremony, we will work with folks to offer extended payment plans, lower ticket prices, and other solutions. If you need additional assistance please reach out to
info@somossanctuary.org or (929) 333-4850 so that we can address your particular situation.
