Family Constellations on the Coast Retreat in Newport, Oregon
Where Lineage Meets the Shore
Come home to yourself.
Rest in belonging.
Be held in a circle of mutual care.
Hear old stories in new ways.
Explore ancestral threads.
Release what no longer serves.
A 4-day Family Constellation Retreat in Newport, Oregon
for rest, release, and mending through Systemic & Family Constellations
Newport, Oregon
From Thursday, October 8, thru
Sunday, October 11, 2026
Come home to the wisdom beneath the surface and the spacious potential that beckons you forward.
The coast is the live edge and so are we. The water leaves things for us, and takes things back. The sound of tumbling rocks, our ancient sea floor exposed. Wild and steady and ready.
​
During this intimate in-person retreat, we'll engage in the transformational practice of Constellations.
Constellations offer an embodied method to help bring resolution to stuck life patterns, inherited burdens, and unspoken loyalties that live in our family and organizational systems.​
WHAT TO EXPECT...
You will be met and accompanied with care. This retreat offers restoration and lasting insights through the transformative lens of Systemic & Family Constellations.
In a space held with warmth and skill, we’ll explore the stories carried in our families and our bodies, supporting our souls to gently loosen what no longer serves.
You belong and are welcome, whether you're new to constellation work or are a returning practitioner. This experience offers depth, renewal, and community.
In addition to constellation sessions each day, there are optional morning movement programs, evening rituals, space for personal care, and wonderful food made on-site by a local chef.
Join us for four nourishing days of connection, and three restful nights by the sea.
Meet some of the lovely people supporting
community care at the retreat.

When you choose a retreat with Many Ways, you support community and accessibility from design to delivery
Weaving Belonging with the Local Community
​Supporting the local community is an important part of the Many Ways' ethos. Here are some of the retreat design choices that align with that commitment:
-
Pricing accessibility: The pricing structure includes a three-day pass and evening programming tickets for those with their own lodging. Often these kinds of events come to the beautiful coast but don't include the people who live there. ​Although providing options makes the registration process a little more complicated, it’s worth it!
-
Locally-owned lodging: I've rented from local owner/operators rather than corporations.
-
Local chef: Chef Moss is from the coastal community and has made and served food sourced from local ingredients for more than a decade.
-
Locally-sourced food: For the Constellations on the Coast Retreats, Chef Moss gathers wild-crafted mushrooms and herbal teas, fresh caught seafood, and vegetables from the farmer's market.
-
Local Yoga Instructor and Sound Healer: Liv also lives, works, and plays at the coast.
-
Support local business: On Saturday night we go out to dinner to bolster area restaurants.
Emphasizing Accessibility in Many Ways
Accessibility means other things as well, including:
-
Many Ways' payment flow: By offering numerous lodging options, and two different roles, the pricing structure meets a variety of budgets. This retreat is accessible from $280 - $1480, depending on choices you make at registration. See Price Overview below. Providing options like this weaves inclusion into every part of the design.
-
Accommodate dietary restrictions: Chef Moss works to accommodate most dietary restrictions, clearly communicate ingredients, and serve delicious, nutritious foods throughout the retreat.
-
ADA accessibility: The retreat house includes an elevator and wide doorways.

REGISTRATION DECISIONS - PART TWO
Help hold the space as a Participant/Rep supporting others...
…or also be a Turn Taker and receive a constellation for yourself
We will all be Participant/Reps supporting others within this attentive community space
​
Hold the space. Every workshop builds a community that soulfully witnesses, participates, and represents in the constellations set by Turn Takers.
Attending and serving in this capacity is often a surprisingly profound gift we all give and receive.
You'll be guided through the process to comfortably contribute to the field that makes another's mending movements possible.
This experience yields quiet and meaningful insights about human systems, patterns, belonging, and the true nature of helping.
​
The purpose of every constellation is to increase the flow of love.
There is also an opportunity to register as a Turn Taker to receive a constellation
Take your turn. Bring a pattern, an ache, a question or perplexing puzzle that's been asking for your attention. This might be something within you, something relating to your family or your work that's ready to be seen from a new perspective. Issues that have been resistant to other means of resolution are welcome in this work.
​
As your facilitator, I'll be with you as a collaborative accompanist. We will look together at what brings you, with open curiosity and non-judgmental grace. I trust that we can courageously yet gently look at what has been unseen, acknowledge what's been carried, and consider what is ready to be released.
As a Turn Taker, you'll also experience the gift of close attention by a caring community, who will also be guided by the facilitator. Through a gentle process of small moves, big pauses, something new may be unfolded for you and your system.
