Sacred Ohms is a platform that connects the owners of beautiful sacred properties (“Ohms”) to retreat Retreat Leaders who are seeking an energetically aligned space that is tailored to fit their desires for hosting their experience.
We honor the profound healing potential of medicine, yet we must respect laws where it is prohibited. We encourage open dialogue between Ohms and Retreat Leaders looking to host a space for such practices, as we believe in fostering a harmonious and responsible approach to holistic well-being. However, we are not involved in any facilitation and it is the responsibility of both parties to ensure compliance with all applicable laws. Sacred Ohms LLC is not liable for any illegal activities conducted on the premises.
We discovered that finding the ideal space for a retreat was often challenging for retreat Retreat Leaders for several reasons that include but are not limited to the difficulty in finding a truly sacred location, facing unexpected responsibilities of equipping a home with the materials necessary for various wellness activities and workshops and feeling out of alignment with the home owner’s values.
Our solution is to provide a platform where retreat Retreat Leaders can connect with Ohms that are being held to the standards necessary to ensure a blissful experience.
