An intimate, Global-Majority–founded gathering on generationally Black-tended Southern California land that brings participants into a ceremonial relationship with Earth, Water, Fire, Sky, and Plants, honoring both seen and unseen worlds.

Held on generationally Black-tended land in Southern California—home of the Grief to Action Sanctuary—and founded by people of the Global Majority, Earthsong Festival is the only gathering of its kind on the West Coast. This intimate festival invites participants to listen, sing, move, and engage in ceremony in Circle with our wise Ancestors and with the Earth, Water, Fire, Sky, and Plants—honoring both the seen and unseen worlds, tending the ground beneath us, and igniting the flame within our hearts.

He co-founded Sanctuary Healing Spa in Fort Collins, CO, and created ManaHeart — community spaces designed to cultivate courageous vulnerability, authentic expression, and sacred interconnection. Through his signature Heartwork Sessions, Kingsya supports individuals navigating life transitions, releasing stuck emotional patterns, and returning to an authentic relationship with themselves.

  • Earthsong Festival Keeper & Facilitator
    Depth-Oriented Somatic & Therapeutic Practitioner
    theoceanofmilk.com

    Saraswati (they/them) lives on unceded Ohlone land in California and is training as a Buddhist chaplain (clergy person) in the Vajrayana tradition, enrolled in a seven-year Master’s program in sutra and tantra. They are a certified teacher of mindfulness and shamatha meditation and a certified Transforming Touch® practitioner and somatic coach.

    Their approach moves like a river—drawing from chaplaincy, traditional medicine, psychological and somatic practices, and a trauma- and carnage-informed perspective. Rooted in ritual and grounded in earth practices, Saraswati’s work moves in dialogue with Eastern and Western lineages, neuroscience, and the unseen, tending both the wounded personal psyche and the divided collective body.

    At Earthsong Festival, Saraswati will guide earth, water, and fire–based practices, alongside hands-off Transforming Touch® ceremonies.
