Join our exclusive Sacred Hunting retreat with veterans to source your own wild meat, connect with brotherhood, & heal the warrior within
Indigenous cultures had war as a rite of passage... but with elaborate rituals for re-integration within the tribe.
If your inner warrior desires to reconnect with the archetype in a nourishing way for yourself, your family, and community... then you're ready for the hunt.
This is what initiation creates...
"There is nothing that inspires confidence in me than literally being able to go out and eat what I kill. Cannot recommend hunting enough."
- Mansal D
"It's a powerful experience to get to connect with the land... spiritually, I had a really big breakthrough just being in that container..."
- Brandon E
"It’s no secret that the food system is broken…[I want to] only consume the meat that I directly hunt or trade”
- Jordan B
"Seeing her approach death was an emotional experience...I teared up and cried a bit."
- Tim K
"It was a really great experience to bond with the other men there...[I enjoyed] the fireside convos. Awesome group of guys..."
- Kitch W
"Some of the most important men's work... world's work, really... this is something that felt really important for me to connect with my primal roots..."
- Jordan B
There is no therapy, method, or program as old or as profound as sacred hunting.
Hunting is older than humanity itself. Tribes of men would bond around the fire, share laughs, and provide meat for their loved ones and community.
Indigenous hunter-gatherers had an intimate relationship with nature and the mysteries of the universe. Reclaiming these practices boosts our sense of gratitude and presence.
Power plants, taken in sacred ceremony, have allowed men to expand their consciousness for tens of thousands of years. Examples include reishi, cacao, etc
"This was one of the most profound and powerful experiences of my life... This trip allowed me to be vulnerable with a bunch of like minded men without fear of judgement or ridicule. I have struggled tremendously, since leaving the military, with trying to find connection, particularly with men on the healing path and that are committed in doing the work, holding each other accountable and holding space for each other during the good and bad times. I have finally found my Tribe..."

"...transformative experience we all lived last weekend during the Sacred Hunting Veteran Ceremony. The depth, vastness, and profound enlightenment we experienced defy the constraints of language...your dedication to cultivating a sacred container filled with openness, compassion and understanding was felt by every soul in our circle. You've opened your hearts and minds to us, and for that, I am profoundly grateful."
- Ryan Roberts

"After I shot the whitetail deer and I ran to see her and had my hands on the warm body when it was shaking and the last heartbeats, there was a moment that our eyes locked and gazed. There was this surrender...the most graceful experience of my life. This beauty of nature, surrendering to life. It was so deep. It was such a humble experience."
- Gili Oren
