A Day at Spirit Camp
The rhythm of this redwood spiritual retreat for men mirrors the cycles of nature.

Meals are plant-forward and lovingly prepared, shared at long communal tables beneath hand-hewn beams. Afternoons often allow for integration: walks through the forest, journaling in the Sanctuary, or quiet tea under winter sunlight.
Nights arrive gently. Stars shimmer above the ridge. A fire crackles, stories are told, silence deepens. The Spirit Camp campus, with its redwood trails and cozy indoor lodging, becomes both teacher and refuge.
