We love you guys <3 A FESTIVAL THAT FEELS LIKE A RETREAT What makes Enliven special, is it's a place that will leave you feeling : Nourished ~ Revitalized ~ Inspired ~ and more ~ Energized than when you arrived! Our Mission is to create a safe space for authentic human connection and expression, and to be a place where earth and body wisdom is shared across cultures and generations. Our Vision is to cultivate a supportive and sustainable global community that's committed to inner healing and harmonizing with the natural rhythm of our Mother Earth. Our Organization Values are: ~ Embodiment : Our bodies are sacred and we honor their place in our lives. We invite all to be more fully present and embodied through mindfulness, movement and music. We believe the body is sacred and is part of the pathway to true ENLIVENment <3 ~ Authentic Expression : All of you is welcome here! Enliven provides opportunities to move beyond limiting beliefs that prevent you from shining your light. Uncover your deeper layers and fall in love with all parts of you. Witnessing others and being witnessed in this state is truly life changing! ~ Sobriety : Enliven is an environment where authentic human connection is possible because we are present in our bodies and our experience. We encourage everyone to be conscious of their substance consumption. ~ Safety : We endeavor to provide a safe haven for children as well as for mental, emotional and spiritual healing by ensuring that trained facilitators and guides are available to support those who need it. ~ Sleep : We recognize that sleep plays an important role in keeping us healthy and balanced, so we don't have music going all hours of the night. ~ Reciprocity : We recognize that the earth gives us so much, and we offer our gratitude by giving offerings to the earth, and treading lightly by prioritizing sustainable waste management. We value leaving the land better than we found it and supporting the beings in the surrounding area. ​ ~ Inclusivity : We create space for indigenous and BIPOC voices to share their culture and wisdom and be financially supported in return. Contact us about BIPOC scholarships <3 At Enliven, some of the offerings you will find include: DJ's & Live Musicians Workshops Ecstatic Dance Contact Dance Drum Circle Yoga Breathwork AcroYoga Cacao Ceremony Sound Journey Somatic & Emotional Healing Song Circles Tantra & Sacred Sexuality Men & Women's Work Indigenous Cultural Education Regenerative Living Authentic Relating Open Mic & Fireside Jams Kid's Activities Dance & Circus Performances NOTE: We suggest arriving to the sunshine coast a day early (Thursday) to get settled and connect to the land prior to arriving, avoiding any potential ferry delays.
