A world where natural wildness becomes the norm and people and the planet are inherently healthy and deeply connected.

HEALINGROUNDS are natural spaces that offer an opportunity for mutual growth, rewilding and healing of both humans and the soil.

Our mission is to ignite a movement of people that create 'Healing Grounds' around the world, strengthening their bond with the soil, with other people and their commitment to healing.

We do what we do for REWILDING - igniting and protecting the WILD within humans and the environment, fostering a deep connection between people and the natural world.

The Rewilding Ceremony

The Rewilding Ceremony is a moment away from the noise:

A circle of women around a fire, with singing, food from the flames, and a celebration of what rises deep from the body.
 It’s a journey of reconnecting to our instincts, our desires, and the voice we’ve been waiting to hear.

The Rewilding Ceremony is a return to our true nature.

We’ll taste local, seasonal foods — olive oil, honey, cheeses, and wine — as part of reconnecting to the land and all that it continues to give, even now.
We’ll awaken the passion that lives in our bodies, so that we can dare to lead and stand in our power.
We’ll release the voice that wants to come out and tell new stories that are ready to be heard.

Join us

After gathering around the fire with women from the north and south of the country — and after hearing repeated calls from women in the center asking how they can join — we’re inviting you to co-create with us a movement of feminine leadership whose time has come.

תודה! נהיה בקשר בקרוב

Who we are & why we started this journey

We are women who have lived in a world governed by the logic of war. 

We are mothers raising children, provide for our families, and nurture relationships under the heavy shadow of grief and existential fear.

Our home is not the concrete walls we live within, but the place where we feel connected. 

The Dolphins – Our Content

 In the first season, we explored places of healing in nature: spaces, facilitators, tools, and people who are courageously navigating trauma recovery.
In the current season, we launched The Dolphins — a journey across the country in search of women entrepreneurs we can support in creating Healing Grounds and earth-based healing ventures.  We documented this movement to inspire others with this kind of entrepreneurship. Unlike the “Sharks,” we don’t ask whether a venture can succeed — we ask how we can make it succeed, together.

Here are videos from our journey, which included fireside gatherings across the country, encounters with incredible women entrepreneurs, and inspiring stories.

Our Content

Through our content, we explore tools, places, and guides that can awaken the call to return to the healing found in nature.

our projects

In our entrepreneurship program, we traveled through the evacuated regions in the northern and southern parts of the country and identified women entrepreneurs whose inner fire was burning to help their communities return home — through working the land and, more importantly, creating healing spaces for activity: from cooking to yoga.These ventures are being launched with speed and spirit, driven by a deep sense of purpose — much like the Homa U’Migdal (Tower and Stockade) settlements that strengthened Jewish presence in the Land of Israel before the state was founded.

The program was established in collaboration with Community O, a national organization, and with Atufot in Kibbutz Erez in the south, and Galiladies and Habaita – Returning Home to the Galilee in the north.Hundreds of women applied, and while we could only accept a limited number into the official support and grant program, we opened up networking events and entrepreneurship gatherings to all applicants — so they could connect, share, and support each other.As we like to say: “We’re not the sharks. We’re the dolphins.”

Our Projects

Through partnerships with key organizations and institutions, we create spaces that promote health, well-being, and connection to the land. These initiatives are a testament to the power of collaboration and the vision of building a healthier future for as many people as possible.

Here are the projects we can already share (and we will update on further developments soon!)

Why is Connection to Nature Important?

When spending time in nature, people reconnect with themselves, leading to a spontaneous healing process of both body and mind.It's not just something we say—research shows that being in nature fosters deeper connections between people and a sense of unity with the world. Studies have found that individuals who spend time in natural environments experience stronger feelings of community and togetherness, a greater willingness to support and help others, and significantly lower levels of hostility and violence.

They also demonstrate improved resilience in coping with stress.However, it’s not just being in nature that enhances mental well-being and quality of life, but rather actively engaging with it. The "connectedness experience" is what truly makes a difference. Focusing on the present moment—whether by observing natural landscapes, listening to birdsong, or feeling the wind on your skin—enhances personal well-being and helps reduce feelings of stress, depression, and anxiety.

Our Rituals

HealinGrounds invites you on a profound journey into the heart of nature and your inner beauty.

Through each ritual, we reconnect with the healing forces of the earth. The rituals are filmed in an intimate and focused setting and serve as the foundation for a kit that is sent to our community every month.Our rituals are powerful and emotional experiences, carefully designed to allow you to experience nature in its most authentic and wild form.

Each ritual is a visual and emotional journey, perfect for sharing and documentation, giving you the opportunity to take an active part in creating a new, meaningful relationship with nature.

Our Values

 Our values are the compass that guide us in our daily decision making, as well as in our long term plans. They give us clarity within the chaos. Here are they:
