Do you hear the call of the wild?

Journey to sacred lands that can heal, transform and empower you.  

We have hosted hundreds of guests each year since 2014. We are building a global network of 8 healing sanctuaries along the earth’s sacred mountains and waterways in order to accelerate human consciousness and bring harmony and balance back to our beloved planet. 

Join our 10-Year Anniversary Celebration & Fundraiser this November in Mount Shasta!

Mount Shasta is known as the root chakra of the earth and revered as a sacred mountain by the local Wintu, Shasta and Karuk tribes. Our 10-acre retreat sanctuary welcomes you with a flowing creek with healing mineral waters. We offer a cozy creekside cabin, five 20-foot yurts, one 30-foot open-space yurt, and eight deluxe glamping tents.

Kealakekua Bay, Big Island, Hi

Expand your visions with joy, play & wise discernment

Kealakekua bay is an ancient ceremonial site for native Hawaiians and home to abundant marine life. The wild spinner dolphins who come to rest here remind us to live and create with joy & aliveness.  Our 5-acre retreat sanctuary offers gorgeous ocean views with five private cottages and seven suites plus a communal open-air yoga studio and dining space.

OUR VISION

In these times of great political, environmental and economic instability, humankind is being tested to evolve. Hestia is where we can listen to Mother Earth for clues to navigate our way forward.

We are a spiritual playground for practicing new ways of being, living, working and communing— starting with a reverent relationship with sacred land.

We are kind, caring, spiritually grounded people committed to doing our inner work in order to birth a beautiful new world for future generations to flourish.

New Years 2025 Celebration & Winter Solstice Sabbatical

Dec 28, 2024 - Jan 2, 2025

Big Island, Hawaii


co-hosted by Belinda Liu (Hestia co-founder) & Dr. Paul Wang (Doctor of Chinese Medicine)

What seeds do you wish to incubate this winter?

Join us for our special winter sabbatical program to receive the restorative, introspective medicine of winter. Together, we will slow down to rest and root deeply into our winter visions with the support of the community and the silence and stillness of this season. The solstice time enhances our sensitivity to possibilities beyond our old stories and stale identities. We feel into the new who we want to be. We illuminate both our intentions and blockages to create our most meaningful life.

Spring Equinox Sabbatical Week

March 17-23, 2025

Mount Shasta, CA


co-hosted by Belinda Liu (Hestia co-founder) & Dr. Paul Wang (Doctor of Chinese Medicine)

Cycles circulate ceaselessly… Such is the power, purpose, process of ritual transition between winter and spring. Honoring when shadows shorten and daylight lengthens. The scales tip towards illuminating warmth, so we attend and attune this seasonal shift.

It is an integral return of our sacred energies — often forgotten amongst the noise, hustle, clutter of technological society. It is a joyful homecoming to befriend ourselves and other selves. As we cultivate our landscapes both inner and outer, cull excesses, curate essentials, we emerge anew ready to rebirth our gifts and inspire our communities.

What aspects of your life are ready for full blossom this summer?

Join us for our special summer solstice sabbatical week to cultivate the fiery joy and aliveness of Pele’s lands on Big Island, Hawaii. We will work intentionally with the summer seasonal element of fire.

Dr. Wang will share his integration of martial, medical, and mystical paths as our collective story of mythic mastery — a process which actualizes our full potential. He will orchestrate a series of three 2-hour morning activation sessions throughout the week to harmonize our mind, heart, body with soul, spirit, source.
