MISSING CURRICULUM
EVERY MONTH WE GATHER.
A practical education in the things we were never taught about being human—emotionally, relationally, and internally.We come together to explore a different topic, from nervous system health, relationships and communication to boundaries, grief, self-worth, emotional wellbeing and everything in between.
Through meaningful conversation, practical education and shared experiences, we create space to better understand ourselves, each other and the world we live in.
No pressure to fix yourself. No overwhelming or conflicting advice. Just curiosity, connection and tools to help you navigate life with greater awareness, confidence and compassion.
Because you’re not just here to pay bills and die!

LUCENT FESTIVAL
SAVE THE DATE - August 6-8th, 2027
Come together in the great outdoors for our 13th annual eco and family-friendly festival, and allow yourself to reset, relax, and appreciate.If good old-fashioned face-to-face connection, nature, health and wellness, live music, and community are your jam, we want you to come add your magic to the mix.
A weekend of connection, creativity, and feeling fully alive. Inspired by the spirit of 90s summer days, before constant notifications, when time stretched long and memories were made offline, Lucent has always held space for a return to analog living. Think sun-warmed afternoons, lawn chairs and coolers on the grass, music drifting through the trees, hands-on creativity, movement and conversations that fill your heart up!
TO ADVENTURE IS TO FIND YOURSELF WHOLE AND KNOW THAT YOU TRULY BELONG.
Embodied Living offers curated experiences for people to connect to their most purposeful self through movement, leadership development, integrated education, adventures + workshops around the globe.
Every piece of our life’s puzzle can be thought of as it’s own adventure.
Adventure is an experience, an exploration, a discovery - often unknown, unusual, possibly risky, thrilling, unexpected, exciting and maybe even deeply stirring. This emotional commotion is an opportunity for us to learn how to safely NAVIGATE towards our highest POTENTIAL and ideal lives.
