About Ascension Village
Our Vision
We envision a world where health, harmony and happiness happens as a natural byproduct of everyday life. Not only is it possible to co-create such a world - we believe it is our highest calling and responsibility as human beings.
As wounded healers, ourselves, we recognize that each person on this planet has a unique role to play in healing the world. Often, it is through overcoming a serious crisis that allows us to see this destiny clearly.
Our Mission
We are passionate about cultivating environments and communities, based on foundations of health and happiness, where it is easy for people to transform wounds to wisdom and to claim their highest destiny, as their highest selves, for the highest good of all.
Our Story
Once upon a time - a naturopath, a psychotherapist, an energy healer, and a yogi - grew tired of watching people work so hard to get well, only to return to the same conditions that made them sick, to begin with.
They saw that there was a desperate need for a safe, supportive and inspiring environment for people to continue their healing and personal growth. They knew how to build it. And they realized that this was what they were destined to do.
Ascension Village was founded in 2024 - as a not-for-profit organization - to meet this growing need for a truly holistic, residential aftercare program for people emerging from more intensive treatment for addiction, trauma and cancer.
Meet the Team
Our founders and program stewards are a diverse group of leading experts and innovators in the growing field of holistic residential physical and psychological healing. We each carry unique wisdom and compassion from struggles and triumphs in our own personal healing journeys.
