Introducing The Orí Care Collective

A Community Wellness Initiative for Women, Transgender, and Non-Binary Activists

At Love & Light Healing and The Alchemist Den, we have always believed that healing is not a luxury — it is a birthright. For years, we have quietly held space for those doing the deep, often invisible work of community care, justice, and spiritual resistance.

Now, we are honored to formally introduce The Orí Care Collective — a year-long, trauma-informed wellness initiative designed to support the emotional, spiritual, and physical restoration of women, transgender, and non-binary activists and defenders across our community.

Why This Matters

The Orí Care Collective was born from listening. Through intimate sessions, client feedback, and countless conversations at our healing tables and community circles, we heard the same truths:

“I’m exhausted.”
“I don’t feel safe.”
“There’s no space for me to unravel.”
“Everyone needs me, but I’m pouring from an empty cup.”

This initiative responds directly to those needs by building a sustainable safety and care structure — one that is affirming, accessible, and rooted in ancestral wisdom.

What We’re Offering

✨ Monthly Healing Circles – Hybrid (virtual + in-person) spaces for rest, release, and reconnection
✨ Emergency Wellness Stipends – Financial support for rest, relocation, or immediate spiritual/emotional care
✨ Body-Based Wellness Services – Trauma-informed reiki, womb massage, and spiritual guidance
✨ Ancestral Wellness Kits – Seasonal care packages with herbal teas, affirmations, candles, and tools for grounding
✨ Healing Justice Toolkit – A guide for peer facilitators on trauma-informed, culturally rooted care
✨ Community Stewards – A growing network of trained volunteers and practitioners who reflect the sacred diversity of our community

How It’s Funded

We are grateful to be seeking ongoing support through grants, and the rest will be resourced through:
– The Alchemist Den (gathering space + in-kind resources)
– Love & Light Healing (practitioners + wellness services)
– In-kind donations and support from our trusted community
– A peer-based volunteer network of care stewards

How You Can Support

We are currently welcoming:
✨In-kind donations (journals, candles, herbal teas, meditation cushions)
✨Partner organizations aligned with gender-inclusive healing and wellness
✨Volunteers to help facilitate or provide peer support

This is more than a program — it is a prayer in action. It is a circle being drawn in love, so that no one has to heal alone.

Welcome to the Orí Care Collective. May we all remember that rest is resistance. Care is culture. And our healing is holy.
