Abigail created the NextGEN Retreat\, a transformative experience for spiritual adults ages 18-35 and an investment in future world leaders. This retreat educates participants about social engagement\, healthy relationships\, and leadership skills while empowering them to generate a sustainable future of prosperity\, service\, and love for all. In 2017\, Centers for Spiritual Living recognized her impactful work with emerging leaders by bestowing upon her the global Youth Champion award.

Embodying Rhythm is therefore universal and helps us to access and integrate the common pulse of all humankind\, connecting us more deeply to ourselves and each other. Our tools are our hands and feet\, shakers\, and our voices\, but most especially The Drums! All levels of experience welcome\, though some familiarity with hand drums would be useful. \nAbout Rev. Donna Starr \nRev. Donna Starr (she/they) is a minister\, ceremonialist\, and spiritual seeker whose path has been shaped by decades of devotion to the sacred in all its forms. A co-founding minister of Emerald Valley Center for Spiritual Living in Eugene\, Oregon — which she birthed alongside her wife and co-minister\, Rev. Lynda Lundry-Starr — Rev. Donna has served the Centers for Spiritual Living community since 1995\, becoming a Licensed Practitioner in 2012 and a licensed minister in 2022. \nFor more than 35 years\, Rev. Donna has been facilitating sweat lodges\, holding the ceremonial container with reverence\, presence\, and an ear always tuned toward the deeper wisdom beneath the forms. Her spiritual journey has woven through many traditions and cultures\, and she brings that richness to every space she creates. \nThe Science of Mind teaching that lives most vividly in her heart is the Omnipresence of God — the radical\, liberating truth that there is no place where the Divine is not fully present. “God is right where I am\, in me\, as me\, and all around me\,” she says. “That reminder has carried me through every moment of disconnection.” \nWhen she’s not leading ceremony or spiritual community\, you might find Rev. Donna in her kitchen — her most meditative space — creating something delicious\, or floating a river on an innertube. A passionate advocate for LGBTQIAP+ rights and visibility\, she brings her whole self to every room she enters. \nRefund Policy \nFor cancellations through Saturday\, May 23\, the refund will be what was paid minus the $99 non-refundable deposit. \nFor cancellations through Saturday\, August 8\, the refund will be 75% of what was paid. \nFor cancellations after Saturday\, August 8\, there will be no refunds. \nPayment plan is available.
