Inner Work:

Fifth Chamber of the Heart

Sowing the Seeds of Social Connection: a community gathering in the greater Sacramento area

As the warmth of summer settles over us, nature enters its period of richest growth. Spring rain gives way to summer sun, making room for the quiet, steady process of ripening. Our in-person communities also require loving attention and tender care. Please join us as we focus on maturing our relationships, deepening our roots, and learning what it truly means to tend to our collective well-being.

This summer, we invite you to step away from the noise of the modern world and join us on August 7-9, 2026 for a unique three-day social gathering dedicated to exploring a vital question for our time: What is social health, and how do we harvest its bounty to nourish our souls?






An Inner Course of Development: deepening the Anthroposophic approach to Waldorf Education

Inspired by the program Lakshmi Prasanna, MD, Inner Work was created for teachers, healers, and parents. We initiated workshops in India to bring into practice the foundational ideas of spiritual scientific inquiry. Returning to Steiner’s observation in The Roots of Education that an "inner course of development will be the correct method of training educators, and not only teachers, but those others who have so much to contribute to educational work—the doctors" continues to be a cornerstone for this way of working with Waldorf pedagogy.

All donations, tuition, and fees paid to Inner Work are applied to workshop expenses, travel costs and facilitators. We are truly grateful for our Inner Work family and look forward to building this organization, so we can better serve the people that this work is meant for.

As Inner Work grows, we invite you to events that gather us together in the spirit of community and togetherness. Our seasonal gatherings will include text studies, artistic activities and a community meal. All seasonal gatherings are held in the Greater Sacramento Area (unless otherwise specified).
