Holistic Centers Network

Peek behind the Scenes

A Peek Behind the Scenes:
Discussions on Starting and Running a Holistic Center

For over 30 years, established centers worldwide have come together for the annual Centers Gathering.
In response to interest, a follow on program has been offered to support emerging centers. This is now developing into e-learning.

Learn from recognised leaders in holistic centers and draw upon their years of expertise

Connect with others who share a similar vision, enjoy support and camaraderie

Develop heart-centered relationships that help maintain the courage, vision and energy to carry out your mission

Explore the realities of running a holistic center and tap into wisdom that comes only from direct experience

Gain practical knowledge and forge the experimentation of new business models for the holistic centers of tomorrow

If you dream of starting a holistic center or are involved in an emerging center,
this e-learning offers invaluable support based on decades of hands on experience.

Rather than a step by step process on how to start a holistic center,
this is a sharing of wisdom and experience from representatives of established centers.

This gathering has been INCREDIBLE. As a small center based way out in Yosemite National Park, I really feel folded into the greater network. This feels so vital. Thank you for creating this!
