COMMUNITY RETREATS

SHARING OUR WEALTH

CWays Home is a small nonprofit that relies on donations to support all our programs. Reciprocity and generosity, for you, for your teachers and with the CWays Home staff are values we all cherish. We actively invite those who have more resources to share and support our community. For those of limited means, we offer a discount that invites your trust and respect for the incredible resource that is being shared.

Whenever we consider finances, scarcity, worry and other fears are often part of the landscape. With our tiered system of sliding scales, we invite you to consider your perception of wealth or lack of finances in relation to others. The financial structure of our culture has changed significantly in recent years, and we often hold on to limiting, outdated perceptions around our own abundance. We invite you to be honest and accrue some good karma by considering your situation in relation to others.

We recognize that wealth is not just about money. As part of our commitment to equity and generosity, we have kept the price of sessions to an absolute minimum. The amount of preparation time, personal attention and care that we put into your experiences and personal development is far more than the dollar value. As far as we know there is no other facilitator like Namae Ntumae offering such diverse experiential teachings and modalities, with direct transmission of the spiritual potency of Nature, along with intimate guiding and profound authentic love.
