Fire Holt Wellness Sanctuary

A vision from the Universe

The idea behind the Wellness Sanctuary is a community where everyone feels safe, as well as productive and happy. It will involve an artisan market, an art studio, a community farm, a large, commercial grade kitchen, a community herb garden, an indoor festival space, an outdoor festival space, living quarters, a cat shelter, a healing space, a permanent fire walking space, Sabbat ritual space, and a healing a recovery center for military veterans and recovering addicts. It will also involve a couple of alpacas, a couple of dairy cows, and some chickens. There will also be bat boxes and bee boxes.

The Artisan Market will be a stable barn repurposed into a marketplace. Local artisans and crafts folk will be able to rent a stall and have their items for sale without having to be present.

The Art Studio space will be dedicated to as many forms of arts and crafts that we can cram into one space including but not limited to a kiln and pottery wheels. This space will be available for creators to create the things being sold in the Market stalls, but it can also be used for education. It gives artists an opportunity to teach their craft to those who wish to learn, and also a place for home school parents to bring their children to learn about various art forms in a hands on capacity.

The Cat Collective will be a small building dedicated entirely to housing feral cats. I will connect with a veterinarian, so all of the cats will be well cared for. It will be a place where people can bring displaced barn cats or adopt a healthy semi feral. There will be a camera inside the shelter for an online channel that will help fund the Cat Collective. And volunteers can come and meet and greet with the cats.

The Farm and the Kitchen are closely linked. I would like to have a community farm where anyone can come and help with the farming and therefore benefit from the harvest. I will have experienced farmers and gardeners available to pass on their knowledge, because the goal is always education and community support. When it is time to harvest, we will have education in the kitchen about the cleaning and preparation of the things we have harvested. In the process of the demonstration, the meals that are made can be vacuum sealed and sent to community members who lack the ability to clean and cook. A part of the kitchen will be dedicated to canning and preserving. Again, I will have experienced folks volunteering to share their expertise. The goal is to teach self-sufficiency in as many areas as possible.

The Herb Garden is also related as many of the herbs we will grow will be for food purposes. There will also be medicinal and magical herbs for various different practices. I will have people who know not only how to plant and grow the herbs, but also who know how to cook with them, make tea and tinctures from them, and use them for medicines and spells.

As an Event Promoter I will continue to hold festivals on my lawn, but with a large barn, I will be able to hold more, year round, and with varied themes.

With the living quarters on premises, I can hold all inclusive Yoga and Wellness retreats. I can teach and lead all of the activities myself, as a certified yoga instructor, Reiki Master, and Meditation Guide. I can also invite guest teachers, guides, healers, and other various experts.

There will be a dedicated healing space for services and classes. Whether this is a series of small buildings or year round yurts, or a combination of the two, is yet to be decided.

The dairy cows speak for themselves. Although I do not intend to sell any dairy products, I will have milk and can make butter.

The chickens also speak for themselves. They will be a source of eggs for the community.

The alpacas provide wool. I will have a spinning wheel and folks who know how to use it and can teach others. Once we teach how to spin into thread, we can teach to make clothes and other things.

Fire Walks are an incredible spiritual experience. I will have a place where we can hold regular fire walks. This can also be included in the retreats.

The living quarters are also intended to be a part of the recovery system. The goal is Holistic Recovery through meditation, natural herbs, healthy eating, reiki healing, yoga practice, one on one and group therapy, and various forms of physical therapy.

Another positive benefit of the living quarters is to offer a safe place to stay for people who have had to suddenly leave their homes for whatever reason, abusive husband, transphobic parents, or just in between apartments for a hot minute.

The wooded space around the farm can be used for hiking and foraging as well as for Sabbat rituals and moon circles. I would also like to have trail cameras for another streaming channel as another source of income.

This is a vision that I am trying to build. If you find this inspiring, please consider donating to the cause. If you are interested in more information I can be reached at Scent_Stone@yahoo.com
