Community Support: Emergence!!

Can you feel it in the air? The hunger & need for connection & community?

We can, too!

And we want to support you with an event designed just for you.

However you choose to bring more Wellness to your people and the world, your clients are worthy of a well-ReSourced YOU.

Because in order to be a ReSource for your community, it begins with feeling ReSourced yourself!

These times are bringing up a lot of things for a lot of people, and they’re already turning toward the healers, the guides, the changemakers, the visionaries, for support. We at the Wellness ReSource Network are passionate about serving you as you continue to serve others!

If you’re feeling called to be of service in a big way right now, it is time for Emergence!!

We invite you to join with others like you for this unique Community Support event on Saturday, March 15th from 6-9pm at Psanctum Thrift in SE Portland to renew your energy, refill your cup, and reconnect with your community.

During our three hours together you’ll experience:

• Unscheduled time to connect freely with other attendees and peruse our small selection of vendors
• An incredibly-delicious elixir bar featuring non-alcoholic & holistic beverages from Fehu Farm & Apothecary
• A powerful ceremony to reconnect you with your body and your purpose
• A value-packed talk to support your Wellness Business
• A raffle featuring items from our team (raffle tickets can be purchased to support the upcoming online wellness directory!)
• and more...

This event is NOT your typical networking mixer! 

This is about supporting and connecting wellness professionals in the Portland area so you can thrive, and continue finding creative and collaborative ways to support the healing of our culture and our community.

We would love to see you there.

Wellness ReSource Network was founded by Kriyanna Feyalove Elumen...

...and its purpose is to both support the local community of wellness professionals and bridge the gap between providers and the general public who need us. Co-led now by a team of amazing women committed to growing the community and putting on powerful local events, our big vision is to launch a Wellness directory in 2025. While Kriyanna focuses on the directory and quarterly vendor events, she has passed the torch of leadership for the Community Support events to Starr Sheppard-Decker (see more about Starr below).

Monthly Wellness ReSource events like this one are about this community RECEIVING and connecting, with quarterly vendor events focused on SERVING the public.

Elizabeth Lavenue: Spotlight Ceremony Leader

Vibrational Transformation: the Alchemy of Sound Healing

From Elizabeth:

Passionate, expressive, and authentic, I am a caring companion along the mysterious road of self-actualization. An inspiring vocalist, shamanic energy healer, and transformational coach,  I assist clients in opening their voices to sound their joy, move their grief and transform their lives. A Portlander since I was 17, I work from my beautiful home studio in SE Portland, and on location. I work with private clients, groups, and retreats. I also offer group dream journeys at the full moon for expanding our inner vision, and community grief rituals, opening our voices and stories of grief to be seen, felt, and held by the greater community. 

About the ceremony:

Einstein says "everything in life is vibration". Together, we will experience how vibrational medicine creates an opening for healing ourselves, the community, and the world. As we gather around the ceremonial drum, we will set intentions for healing through breathwork, toning, and drumming. The power of our voices, brought together with vibration, and intention, brings about a shift in our energy and awareness. This alchemy can inspire us to renew creativity in our lives and businesses.

Shannon Ilas: Spotlight Speaker

Cultivating Community

Shannon Ilas is a realtor based in West Linn, and has served clients for 8 years from Vancouver to Salem, and even over to Mt Hood and the coast. Before starting her own business, she taught English as a Second language and continues her teaching role by guiding clients through every step of the home buying process. When Shannon started her real estate business, she had recently moved to Oregon and didn’t know a soul, so she started a networking group for women called Spark Roundtable to help connect to her community.  Spark Roundtable now offers at least two events a month, and is preparing more creative ways to plug into and shape the local community. Shannon has found that by giving to her community and serving others first, people learn to trust her by selling their homes.  Her business is built on connecting and supporting others, and she leads with this energy in everything she does.

Shannon will be sharing her 5 steps to making connections and growing your business through cultivating community.
