A sacred Healer Exchange retreat experience created exclusively for healers and space-holders
The Renewal Portal: A Sacred Reset for the Healers Who Hold It All January 22-25, 2026 in Cold Springs, Texas
The Renewal Portal is a carefully curated retreat experience where healers step out of over-giving and into meaningful, balanced exchange. Designed to support your nervous system, energy field, and sense of self, this sacred container offers spaciousness to receive deeply while also engaging in intentional healing exchanges with other aligned practitioners. Through rest, embodiment, guided experiences, and conscious reciprocity, you are supported in returning to your center, replenished and renewed from the inside out.
Who This Retreat Is For?
Healers, practitioners, and facilitators who regularly hold space for others and are ready to be supported within a conscious, reciprocal community.
Healers who value exchange over over-giving and feel aligned with balanced participation alongside deep personal nourishment.
Those feeling called to reset and realign their nervous system, energy, and sense of purpose as they move into a new chapter.
Practitioners who crave connection with peers who understand the healer’s path and value integrity, presence, and mutual respect.
Healers who are open, grounded, and self-responsible, and who can engage in group spaces with awareness and care.
Those seeking a sacred retreat experience rooted in rest, embodiment, and meaningful connection rather than training or certification.
What if healers were held the way they hold others?
Why Sacred Healers Exchange Retreats Were Created
Sacred Healers Exchange Retreats were created from a deep knowing that healers need spaces designed for them, not just spaces where they are asked to give more of themselves. After years of witnessing and experiencing the imbalance many healers carry, always holding, facilitating, and supporting others, it became clear that true renewal requires something different. SHER was born as a response to that need. A space where healers can receive deeply, connect with peers who understand the path, and engage in conscious exchange without over-extending themselves. This retreat is an invitation into a more sustainable, nourishing way of gathering, where reciprocity, integrity, and care for the healer are at the center.
