The Hive Church A living sanctuary devoted to sacred ceremony, spiritual communion, and community. Honoring ancestral wisdom, prayer, and embodied devotion.

Preparing for ceremony begins before we arrive at the altar.
It can begin in the days before, in the food we choose, the conversations we give our energy to, the amount of rest we allow ourselves, and the way we begin noticing what is already moving through us. Preparing the body and mind is a way of creating a little more space to listen.
Maybe that looks like eating simply, drinking plenty of water, spending less time with things that overstimulate you, getting outside, journaling, resting, or sitting quietly with your intention. It can also mean noticing the expectations you are carrying. The hope that something specific will happen. The fear of what might arise. The desire to understand everything before you have even entered the space.
You do not need to arrive perfectly calm, clear, or certain. Come as you are, while giving yourself the care and attention that help you arrive more present.
At The Hive, ceremony is held with intention, respect, preparation, and integration. The way we approach the days before is already part of the relationship we are building with the experience.
If you are preparing to sit with us, please follow the specific preparation guidance provided for your ceremony, and reach out if you have questions. 🐝

Healing happens in Community 🐝

Last August, The Hive had the honor of welcoming ten veterans to our land in collaboration with WayPoint 6. They came from different branches and backgrounds, including Special Forces, Marines, Army, and Navy, each carrying their own experiences and stories.

Through the generosity of one of our donors, the entire retreat was offered at no cost. They were simply invited to come, receive, and experience what becomes possible when we don’t have to carry everything alone.

Throughout the weekend, we witnessed walls begin to soften. Laughter returned. Vulnerability found its way into the room. Connection grew through shared meals, conversations, quiet moments, and the simple experience of being surrounded by people who understood.

It reminded us why community sits at the heart of The Hive.

Healing is deeply personal, but it doesn’t have to be solitary. Sometimes another person’s presence gives us permission to put down what we’ve been carrying. Sometimes being witnessed without judgment creates enough safety to open again to trust, support, and life.

We are deeply grateful to WayPoint 6 for trusting us with this collaboration, to the veterans who allowed us to witness part of their journey, and to the donor whose generosity made this gathering possible.

If you feel called to support this work, you can help sponsor a veteran to attend a ceremony at The Hive. Together, we can continue creating spaces where those who have carried so much can come and be held, too. 🐝🤍

I can also make this slightly more emotional and storytelling-focused for stronger Instagram engagement.

Healing doesn’t always look like transformation from the outside. Sometimes it looks very ordinary.
🌿 Saying no.
🌿 Resting without guilt.
🌿 Feeling emotions you’ve avoided.
🌿 Asking for support.
🌿 Trusting yourself.

Last month, The Hive had the honor of welcoming ten veterans to our land, in collaboration with WayPoint 6.

They came from different branches and backgrounds, including Special Forces, Marines, Army, and Navy. Ten men and women who had each carried their own experiences, their own stories, and their own weight.

Because of the generosity of one of our donors, this retreat was 100% accessible to these veterans. No cost to them. Just an invitation to come, receive, and have the space to explore what might be possible on the other side of what they had been carrying.

Watching the weekend unfold was profound. They all arrived in different places, some more closed off, some carrying confusion, resignation, or a sense that they could not quite see a way through.

And over the days, we witnessed much begin to shift. We watched walls soften and connection growing. We watched them begin to open, to laugh, to feel, to receive, and to reconnect with one another.

By the time they were preparing to leave, there were big smiles, long hugs, words about wanting to keep going, and a renewed openness to love and to life.

And it is an honor that The Hive gets to be a place where this kind of work can happen, on the same American soil that these men and women once chose to serve their country.
We are deeply grateful to WayPoint 6 for reaching out and choosing to collaborate with us, and to our donors who helped make this weekend possible.

And if you feel called to help us continue creating access for veterans, you can donate toward sponsoring a veteran to attend ceremony at The Hive. There is more information about how you can help through the link on our website.

There is a whole life of practice behind what Maria and Joseph bring to the altar at The Hive.

Their paths have been shaped by different traditions, teachers, and experiences, and over the years, those paths have grown together through devotion, discipline, prayer, and service.

Maria has returned to the Amazon year after year to continue learning from her teachers and deepening her relationship with the plants. She has devoted herself to rigorous plant diets, extended fasting, purging, plant baths, prayer, long periods of abstinence, and the disciplines that come with this work. She returns to the jungle year after year because the relationship continues to call her deeper into listening and learning.

Joseph has spent many years walking the Red Road and committing himself to the path of Sun Dance, a practice rooted in prayer, endurance, sacrifice, service, and responsibility. Alongside this path, he has also entered deeply into the plant world, spending years dieting with plants, fasting, purging, praying, and learning to listen.

Together, they continue to return to the Amazon to study, sit with their teachers, diet, pray, and deepen these relationships. Their practice is not something that happens only at the altar. It is woven into the way they live, serve, listen, and continue to remain students.
There are sacrifices in this path. There are often seasons of strong discipline, discomfort, separation, and setting aside their ordinary rhythms of life. They have learned to walk through those seasons together, reminding one another of the life they have chosen: one rooted in service, prayer, and devotion.

This is part of what they bring with them when they sit at the altar: years of learning and practice, years of prayer, deep relationships with teachers and plants, tradition, demanding initiations, the strength of their love, and a commitment to continue learning.

A sacred space for reflection, prayer, and connection.

Our Entheogenic Ceremony offers a held and intentional container for communion with the Divine, self-inquiry, and inner guidance. Through various plant sacramental preparations, each journey unfolds uniquely, with space for stillness, insight, emotional release, and expanded awareness.

If you feel called to explore this practice with intention, respect, and reverence, we invite you to learn more about the ceremony and the path to becoming part of The Hive community.

September at The Hive 🌿
September brings us back to the importance of gathering. To the moments when we step out of the rhythm of everyday life and make room to breathe, connect, listen, and simply be with others.
Throughout the month, The Hive offers different spaces for connection and ceremony, each with its own rhythm and intention. From the grounding presence of breathwork and cacao, to the warmth of the Men’s Fire Circle, and the deeper inward journey of our Entheogenic Ceremony, these gatherings offer an opportunity to meet yourself in community and create space for what is asking to be felt, explored, or remembered.
🍃 September 2nd | Breathwork & Cacao Ceremony
🍃 September 10th | The Hive Men’s Fire Circle
🍃 September 11th–12th | Entheogenic Ceremonies
🍃 September 12th–13th | Temazcal Ceremonies - 5.00 P.M.
You don’t have to know exactly what you are looking for before you arrive. Sometimes creating the space is where the listening begins.
If one of these gatherings speaks to where you are right now, we invite you to explore the details, learn more about each ceremony, and find the space that feels right for you.
Come as you are, and give yourself the space to reconnect. 🤎
