Draw upon the wealth of experience that
exists within the Holistic Centers Network

The complexity of challenges emerging in the world today call for us to co-create a consciousness that is broad and deep enough to solve those problems.

Holistic Centers and their leadership play an important role,
exploring and laying foundations for the future.

HCN consultants offer a unique understanding of the challenges and opportunities that arise in the daily operations of a holistic retreat center, and can help create a thriving organisational culture.

The service is available to HCN members, with set fees between
Consultant and Client and a referral fee to HCN.

A free 20 minute initial consult is available on request.
