PREPARING

COR Workshops are deep, transformational experiences that aim to offer all who attend a space to meet and process difficult life experiences to gain more agency, wisdom, and inner peace. In short, this isn’t light work. In many ways COR events follow the traditional arc of a rite of passage or initiation, and are to be held similarly as such.

In support of a beneficial, positive, and safe experience, it is imperative that all who attend a COR workshop experience abide by several self-care, preparation and integration practices in the week before and after the event.

  • Get sufficient sleep and do your best to plan restful days
  • Eat healthy, nourishing foods
  • Practice self-care in whatever ways best support you such as walks in nature, exercise, taking nourishing baths or showers, meditation/prayer, and spacious time at home
  • Receive emotional/spiritual support as needed from a coach, therapist or spiritual director
  • Limit or avoid high intensity media or deeply disturbing or upsetting environments
  • Abstain from consciousness altering experiences including but not limited to taking recreational drugs, alcohol to the point of inebriation, medicine journeys or other intense expansive experiences.
  • Begin reducing your most prominent addictive behaviors.

If you have any questions about best practices in preparation or integration for any COR workshop, training or event, please contact Hearts on Fire Client Care.

FOLLOW-UP

Integrating your workshop experience into your everyday life is a big part of the transformative process. To support your process, we will have a Connection Call one week after the conclusion of the workshop, so we can share and examine any challenges that are arising for you.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are the accommodations like at the workshop?

We handpick our venue sites for comfort, accessibility, and a concentration on the natural beauty around us. Each site is different, but all feature stunning locations with comfortable accommodations for each participant. Most rooms are shared with one or two other participants, and some venues offer private accommodations. We put a lot of thought and effort into making sure each participant is comfortable and well-resourced, asking for sleeping preferences before the workshop. An on-site event manager is there to see to any concerns that come up.

What is the food like at the workshop?

We have an on-site chef present to cook healthy meals for all participants, who attempts to cook with as much organic, natural food as possible and meet your dietary preferences. We ask for any food allergies or restrictions in the questionnaire, and we can accommodate most needs, including dairy-free, gluten-free and vegetarian. Please let us know if you have any dietary restrictions or concerns, and we will do all that we can to accommodate those needs. We ask that you honor your selection throughout the weekend when eating your meals and selecting food (i.e. if you are a vegetarian to eat the vegetarian option rather than the vegan or omnivore option). In the rare case we are not able to, we’ll make sure to communicate beforehand and provide space for you in the refrigerators on site.

What were the terms I agreed to when registering?

For reference, here are the terms you agreed upon when registering for this workshop.

Can I have my own room?

Yes, there are a limited number of private rooms available for an additional cost of $250/person. If you would like your own private room, please email Hearts on Fire Client Care to arrange.

can i do this workshop with a friend or relative?

Yes absolutely! Many people choose to complete their workshop with a close friend or family member present, and it’s a very bonding experience. We encourage you to invite anyone you are close to who might also benefit from the weekend.

What if i can’t get there in time, or have to leave early?

Each process of the weekend is incredibly important. It’s key that you be on site before the workshop starts at 6:30pm, and that you are able to stay until the very end. Please plan accordingly when booking your travel. We cannot accommodate late arrivals or early departures.

What is the policy if i need to transfer or cancel?

The workshop fees are non-transferable. If you cancel more than 60 days prior to the event, the fee is refundable; if you cancel between 60 and 30 days prior to the event, you will receive half of the payment; and if you cancel less than 30 days prior to the event, the payment is non-refundable.
