Expanding your Horizons

The earth is a living, conscious body and a life built in honest relationship with it is the most powerful life a person can live. Sovereignty is earned through practice, study, and direct experience — and the right community makes all of it possible. COSOS is built on those beliefs, and everything offered here flows from them.

OUR STORY

A New Way to Come Home

COSOS is for those who are hungry for a meaningful life — experiences that mark who they are becoming and connect them to something larger than themselves. COSOS ceremonies offer deepening relationships with the earth, held by community, and designed to open doors that open up new worlds.

This is how the ancient world kept its people whole, and it is how COSOS is bringing that wholeness forward.

The Lodge Ceremony

The sweat lodge is a ceremonial space of heat, darkness, prayer, and direct encounter with the true self. It is a place of purification, passage, and communion with the living world. COSOS facilitates these ceremonies to offer people a new way to connect with the world and themselves.

the lodge ceremony at COSOS is open to members who are physically well, healthy, and ready to refine their practice and open new doors for themselves. This sacred ceremony is held every new moon and full moon and is available for booking in the church online portal.
