Northwest Wisdom is a nonprofit weaving together spirituality and social justice. We believe that by tending to the wounds within ourselves, we create the space to transform society from the inside out.

Where Inner Healing

Meets Collective Transformation

At Northwest Wisdom,

we believe healing the world begins with healing ourselves.

Our Vision

We bring social justice and spirituality together through practices like yoga, Reiki, regression therapy, and spiritual counseling. Our work creates safe spaces where people can explore their wounds, restore wholeness, and carry that light back into their communities.

Our Mission

We envision a future where collective healing feels natural and accessible. In this space, healing isn’t just individual, it’s communal, joyful, and deeply human. By nurturing authentic connections with ourselves, each other, and the earth, we aim to spark a ripple of transformation that extends far beyond our walls.

Meet Our Team

Northwest Wisdom was born from lived experience.
Our founder, R.G. Shore, spent years navigating incarceration, systemic oppression, and profound personal transformation. Through meditation, inner work, and spiritual practice, he learned that true healing is never separate from justice.

Healing work must move us toward humanizing those who have been dehumanized.

Northwest Wisdom exists to create a new kind of spiritual community… one that doesn’t bypass hard truths, but embraces them with courage, compassion, and light.

Get Involved

At Northwest Wisdom, we don’t push out the darkness. We become light… and together, we project that light outward to transform the world. We’re just getting started, and your support means everything.

We are currently offering:

  • Yoga & Reiki sessions

  • Life regression therapy

  • Spiritual counseling & energy healing

  • Workshops and retreats blending healing with social justice

Featured Work

The Ocean Inside of Me
by R.G. Shore, Founder of Northwest Wisdom

A journey through healing, resilience, and spiritual awakening.

This powerful memoir tells the story of navigating incarceration, systemic oppression, and profound personal transformation. Through meditation, inner work, and radical self-compassion, R.G. discovered that the deepest healing must always lead us toward justice, and that by facing our wounds, we can create light for ourselves and our communities.

The Ocean Inside of Me is more than a book, it’s a testament to the spirit of Northwest Wisdom.
