A Path of Healing: The Invitation to Restore Sacred Land in Maui
“There is a courtesy in the forest that occurs around pathways of any kind. It takes a lot of energy to break a trail through the brush, especially when it's thick and lush. So whoever goes first… is performing a valuable service for those following behind."
— John Vaillant, The Tiger
These images reflect the soul of this place before the floods. We’re working to restore it—not just to what it was, but to what it’s meant to be.
There is a place nestled deep in the heart of a sacred valley on Maui that has quietly been holding space for healing—for decades, perhaps lifetimes.
You can’t find it on a map.
It reveals itself only to those who are ready. This is your invitation.
​
It’s not just land. It’s a living, breathing partner in the healing process. A sacred guardian. A quiet teacher.
​
And now, this land is asking to be cared for. Protected. Tended to.
​
We're answering that call by gathering a community of stewards—those who know what this work means and what it asks of us. Those who understand that sacred land doesn't belong to us. We belong to it.
Phase One is about stabilization: preparing the land and raising the funds necessary to rebuild the time and flood-weathered cabins.
Future Phases will support the restoration of structures, build infrastructure for self-led and small group retreats, and help steward this land in partnership with its spirit—not in dominance over it.

How Your Support Will Be Used
This land has held so much.
Now it needs to be held in return.
Your contribution helps us restore and protect this sacred off-grid sanctuary, so it can continue to be a place of refuge, remembrance, and healing for generations to come.
​
Here’s where the funds will go in this first phase:
Rebuilding Cabins
Two housing structures on the land are in urgent need of repair. Both will be elevated and rebuilt to withstand future weather events—including potential flooding—and to provide safe shelter for guests on personal retreat.
Water + Sanitation
​Install a water treatment system to provide clean water to all buildings.
​
Upgrade and build composting toilets to ensure eco-aligned waste systems that respect the land and minimize environmental impact
Upgrading Solar
​The property is fully off-grid. We need to expand and upgrade the solar system to provide sustainable, reliable energy to the cabins and shared spaces—supporting refrigeration, lighting, and essential infrastructure.
Land Restoration
The gardens, trails, and gathering spaces need clearing, pruning, and preparation so the land can be safely and respectfully tended again.
​
Your support helps us revitalize the land’s natural beauty and accessibility.
This is sacred work—and practical work.
With your support, we’re not just rebuilding structures—we’re restoring a relationship with the land rooted in care, listening, and long-term stewardship.
This valley is a living altar.
It doesn’t seek attention, but it deserves protection.
It has held generations of seekers in silence and strength.
And now it asks for us to tend the roots.
This is a project of prayer.
Of profound return.
Of presence.
​​
​The land has its own intelligence.
We are inviting those who feel the call.
Who recognize this as sacred work.
Who believe in healing. ​
​
For the Earth, our communities, and our future.
If you’ve been looking for a way to support something sacred, this is your invitation.
