Sacred Experiences Curated by women for women.
Join us for the next iteration of healing, always co-created by a council of Indigenous women leaders, Wonderland Project and our various retreat hostess partners.
We are proud to share that Wonderland Project has given over $100,000 worth in scholarships to women survivors of domestic violence, rape and sexual exploitation to heal in Indigenous ceremonial settings.
Our offering not only benefits the courageous women on their healing paths, but it also serves Indigenous communities, especially those that honor women.
Wonderland Project believes that women survivors, who have lived experienced with violation, manipulation, control, oppression and colonization of their bodies, alongside Indigenous Women – who also have lived experience with violation, manipulation, control, oppression and colonization of their lands, wisdom, peoples and cultures – are the perfect collaborators for healing the wounds of the sacred feminine and the sacred earth.
Wonderland Project offers generous scholarships to ceremonial healing, plus extensive trauma informed somatic preparation and integration practices that are nuanced and specific to women’s trauma.
We believe that the living intelligence of healing plant spirits and the maternal care of Indigenous women’s leadership creates the foundation of care that survivor bodies need. We believe that it is time for women to rebuild the Matriarchal and Naturarchal systems that are inclusive, caring, and regenerative for the earth, and all people.
We hope you will join us to actualize our vision of a healed world. It begins with you.
In service,
Team Wonderland.

Q & A
Why women led circles?
Women’s voices and leadership are chronically underrepresented and undervalued in many spaces, especially in spiritual and ceremonial healing spaces. We have found that there are shamans (statistically a higher percentage of male ceremonial space holders) who violate sacred contracts of keeping women safe. The extreme cases are sexual violations, but subtle harm is found in gaslighting, not adhering to all women safe space requests, the mistreatment of women in subordinate positions. We simply believe that it is important that women survivors template women’s leadership, especially when 98% of violence is from men.
Why women only participants?
Trauma does not happen in isolation, trauma happens in relationship. Trauma must be healed in relationship and a community that feels safe. Shame often holds women back from sharing their stories, but sexual or physical violations happen to more women than we think. In fact, 1 in 3 women will experience a physical or sexual violation globally. Community healing lets women know they are not alone in their suffering. They gain a community of sisterhood that can nourish and support them in the future. All women circles supports the healing of these specific wounds.
Why Indigenous leadership?
Women survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault or sexual exploitation share an experience with Indigenous women who have had to endure violence, exploitation, domination, oppression, and colonization of their land, people, lineages, and wisdom….often their bodies too. We are learning to regenerate the wisdom and sacredness of the body, Indigenous women know how to live by the rhythms of the earth that survivors have been severed from. How we treat women is how we treat the earth, and how we treat the earth is how we treat women. Indigenous knowledge systems will help women reclaim their sovereignty by the most natural and inherent means. We will continue to inquire about best practices with all our partners.
