What if you felt prepared in every moment, to be the father, partner, and leader you truly want to be?

Be part of

something

beautiful.

We are cultivating a renaissance in human transformation and vitality, restoring and reimagining sacred ecosystems for our modern world.

Our programs help activate the full possibility of significant life transitions, rites of passage, and initiatory experiences such as the loss of a loved one, surviving a terminal illness, summiting a mountain, miraculous healing, psychotherapy, or a plant medicine ceremony.

Your Invitation

Join us this August for an experience designed specifically for Peace Train Guides where Lakota wisdom keepers and modern guides unite to activate your deepest potential for transformation and service.

Through sacred ceremony, somatic practices, and fire-lit wisdom circles, this intimate 3-day retreat offers a rare bridge between ancient Indigenous wisdom and contemporary vitality arts. 

Set against the backdrop of sacred Lakota land, this immersive experience weaves together traditional ceremony, movement practice, and natural medicine to activate your innate wisdom and strengthen your ability to serve others. Each day unfolds as a careful balance of learning and integration.

You'll be guided through traditional Lakota teachings, medicine pouch creation, and sacred ceremonies while experiencing transformative movement sessions, breathwork, and contemplative practices. The journey culminates in a traditional sweat lodge ceremony, offering a profound opportunity for purification and renewal.

This journey will forever transform how you move through the world and serve others, guided by respected Lakota Wisdom Keeper Doug Good Feather and the innovative facilitators of Passage.

There is a natural law—a spiritual intelligence that we are all born with that lies within our hearts. Lakota spiritual leader Doug Good Feather shares the authentic knowledge that has been handed down through the Lakota generations to help you make and recognize this divine connection, centered around the Seven Sacred Directions in the Hoop of Life:

Wiyóhinyanpata—East: New Beginnings

Itókagata—South: The Breath of Life

Wiyóhpeyata—West: The Healing Powers

Wazíyata—North: Earth Medicine

Wankátakáb—Above: The Great Mystery

Khúta—Below: The Source of Life

Hóchoka—Center: The Center of Life

Once you begin to understand and recognize these strands, you can integrate them into modern life through the Threefold Path: 

  1. The Way of the Seven Generations—Conscious living 

  2. The Way of the Buffalo—Mindful consumption 

  3. The Way of the Community—Collective impact

Teaching

Overview

Elevate the Way YouMove Through The World

Indigenous wisdom sees all of life as an interconnected web of relationships. By weaving together Eastern and Western medicine, contemporary science, and ancestral practices, we create a comprehensive ecosystem for human transformation and vitality.

These teachings don't offer quick fixes - they provide profound shifts in how you move through the world, naturally elevating every aspect of your life.

Our unique synthesis of ancient wisdom and modern understanding creates practical pathways for integrating these sacred practices into the complexity of today's world.

Through this wisdom, you can expect all of these areas to be elevated in your life. 

Leadership
Parenting
Career
Service
Love & Relationships
Creative Expression

Remember who you are. What if you could respond intentionally rather than react emotionally in each moment, no matter the circumstances? How would your life transform if you were able to easily release anything that does not serve you, embrace the unknown, and see everything in your life as being for you rather than against you?

Our Transformation Ecosystem unites ancient wisdom with the complexities of the modern world, providing you with the support you need to elevate your way of being and optimize your ability to be of service to others.
