Shadow Work® is more than an intellectual exercise—it’s an embodied journey into more of who we truly are. It is a kind of light work, actually…
Start 2027 with a Spark of Illumination… The Art of Shadow Alchemy is a dynamic and immersive Shadow Work® experience. This approach goes beyond books, journaling, and meditation to ignite the beginnings of true, embodied transformation. (“Transformation”, by the way, is rarely a single event; it often starts with a breakthrough and evolves through ongoing awareness and intentional practice. This workshop provides the breakthrough and then equips you with tools and guidance to sustain and deepen the changes you wish to create.)
People kept asking when we'd do it again… so Shadow Work® is returning to Boise for a fourth time. Yay!
Four happens to be a meaningful number in Shadow Work®, so to celebrate #4 in Boise, we're holding our pricing at 2026 rates. Yay again!
This is a unique opportunity to experience the depth of Shadow Work® —a transformational modality created by Cliff Barry— in community. If you’re curious but unsure, please reach out. We’d love to talk and help you explore if this retreat is right for you.

“Okay… I KNOW about this pattern and where it came from. But how do I change it? Now what?!”
If that sounds familiar, this workshop offers an opportunity to move from understanding your patterns to experiencing and practicing something different.
Guided by experienced Shadow Work® facilitators and supported by a small group, you’ll explore through experiential practices that engage your thoughts, emotions, body, and sense of meaning.
Awareness into action: Discover what’s underneath familiar patterns, and explore new ways to respond, express yourself, and make choices.
Connection and meaning: Reconnect with aspects of yourself you may have set aside, and get clearer about what matters to you.
Emotional understanding: Explore feelings, beliefs, and protective strategies with curiosity. Understand how they’ve served you and where you’d like more choice.
Body awareness: Notice how emotions and patterns show up in your body, and practice listening to those signals as you explore boundaries, connection, and self-expression.
Fun! Shadow exploration can feel vulnerable and scary, and it can also be surprisingly playful. We make room for laughter, cheering, and being super fun humans together. Seriously. (haha!)
To ensure your comfort and readiness, registration includes a brief consultation with one of our facilitators.
Your facilitators are Gretchen Kainz and Nathalie Jackson, a powerhouse facilitator from Alberta, Canada!
