“I’m going through a time of profound healing and Barbara’s Soul-Centered Coaching is a large part of that. I’ve realized that my body and energy are tense which leads me to react to situations in fear and anxiety rather than openness and love. Barbara’s coaching has helped open up my body and energy, allowing me to release patterns that no longer serve me. I feel supported and held in each of our sessions.”
Grief Tending Ritual

November 8, 2025
12pm - 5pm
Session Length: 5 hours
Grief is holy. In this ritual we gather at the threshold of sorrow, not to fix or push it away, but to honor its sacred wisdom. Together, we will tend to the fire of grief as ceremony, inviting it to reveal it’s medicine, it’s depth, and it’s connection to love.
Through prayer, breath, orientation, and song, we enter a carefully held container where grief may be expressed, witnessed, and transformed. This is a space where the silence around loss may break open, where lineage pain may find release, and where each participant can discover the power inherent in their grief.
Rooted in ethics, love, and clarity, this circle calls us to meet grief as both personal and collective: woven through our ancestors, our communities, and the earth itself.
On November 11th from 5:30-7:00pm MT, participants are invited into a virtual integration circle, a space to return to the teachings, share reflections, and continue weaving the threads of healing and connection.

Testimonials
“I’m very grateful for Barbara and the support she has provided me. I have had an astrology reading and soul-centered coaching sessions with her. Barbara’s understanding of the psyche, her ability to tap into the field and offer guidance, and her capacity to hold compassionate, clear and safe space is truly exceptional. Her medicine runs deep and the sacredness she approaches the work with can really be felt. I’m a therapist, breathwork facilitator and space holder myself, and am pretty discerning about who I work with…and Barbara is the real deal. Thank you, Barbara!”
“I felt very safe and supported working with Barbara and Tami, which is the same high level of safety and professionalism I’ve come to expect and appreciate from holotropic breathwork facilitators. Being in an intimate small group for this experience was very special and allowed me to go deeper in a different way. I really look forward to doing more holotropic experiences with Barbara and Tami in the future!”
“Being new to breathwork and the power of it, I was not sure what to expect when I signed up for a retreat facilitated by Tami and Barbara. They are such a welcoming and warm pair of facilitators! If you are seeking opportunities to engage in a guided breathwork experiential and also seeking personal insights, sharing transformational stories, and expanding realms of creativity – participating in their guided breathwork retreat is a direct match! I valued how both Barbara and Tami offered insightful guidance throughout the retreat, thoughtful reflections, and held space for me with such delicate attention to detail.”
“Barbara is beyond amazing! I remember the first time I casually met her. I was welcomed not just with a smile, but a genuine warmth conveyed through her eyes and words spoken with wisdom and love. Since that time, she has led me through the uncovering of buried memories which were controlling my life in unhealthy ways. Through her depth of knowledge across multiple modalities, she has guided me to healing and the yearning to know my soul’s purpose. Barbara’s guidance is focused on steady forward movement through the muck of life’s experiences. Her words have been like a prod to keep me moving toward joy and the path of light. I absolutely recommend journeying with Barbara into the space of awareness and growth.”
