CONFLUENCE (2026)
A powerful gathering of Waters
A swirling of energies, seen and unseen
For all Earth’s Sons and Daughters
Flowing as a single stream
Ecstatic songs shouted to the skies
Dynamic dances moved by Grace
Clear gazes into a stranger’s eyes
A seamless smile on every shining face
What a perfect setting we shared
To learn and laugh and pray
As our bonfires of brilliance flared
We brightened the Night and charged the Day
God’s presence ever-known
We assembled for a reason:
to reap all that’s been sewn
And celebrate this new Season
I may have lost my voice
but I gained an inner sound
Hearing Freedom in every choice
With my bare feet on fertile ground
When we immerse ourselves in Love
No broken chain are We
As is below and so above
We see that which we choose to see
Living fully from the Heart,
We remember who We are
No longer left apart
From the seed of our own Star
All our rivers ran together
with no thought for beginnings or ends
Though we sail home through stormy weather,
I know I’ll see you next year, my friends!
You can’t fake vitality
you can fake success, you can fake status, you can even fake happiness (for a while)
but you can’t fake real energy...
you can’t fake a calm, regulated nervous system.
You can’t fake a body that actually feels good
to live in, and without that...
all this talk of freedom, sovereignty and a better world becomes a lot harder.
because if your body is depleted and dysregulated...you’re not fully free
that’s why Confluence matters
it’s not just ideas and conversations but the embodiment and community
it’s people actually choosing to live differently...together
Heart & Soil to brings a simple message back into the mix:
the most radical thing you can do right now...
is become illegally healthy...
deeply nourish yourself...not with trends, not with hacks but with real food.
the OGs, organs
the forgotten superfood your body is begging for
health is the foundation. from there...everything changes
Find us at heartandsoil.co and start reclaiming your birthright to radical health
WOW. What a week.
We’re always so full of gratitude and love for you incredible humans, and this year is no different, but with all of the curveballs we were thrown with the rain, and how gracious and understanding you all were, we are even more in awe of this amazing soul family of ours.
When the dust settles and we’re cleaning up the ranch, we find our hearts so full of thanks for this community that just keeps growing and keeps showing up to be the ones who want to move through the world in a more truthful, beautiful, loving way.
Words will never be able to express the impact you have on us, each other, and the world, but for now “We love you” will have to do the trick.
See you all next year!
The Confluence Team
The children of @confluence_tx were absolutely remarkable. Thank you so so much @judy.fairall for all that you did in that magical kids tent!!
This was my first time reading “Millie the Mycelium” to a group of kids… I balled my eyes out mid-reading 😂 too sweet and meaningful, couldn’t hang!
Healthy, happy, attentive, curious, loving, insightful children. Families living in accordance with their values. That’s the village I choose 🙏

What a wonderful time we had at @confluence_tx 2026 at @sovereigntyranch ! We embraced old friends & made new ones! We all explored together & learned along the way. It was a truly special and beautiful time. It’s always better when we’re together. 🌿💕✨ #love #nature #explore #kidscamp
Confluence 2026.
The most beautiful and meaningful event I’ve ever experienced.
Last year was my first year, and I said the same thing then. Somehow, this year surpassed it in every possible way.
Getting to be part of the team, working closely behind the scenes, serving something this special, has been a real blessing in my life. I’m deeply honored to know this community and to contribute to it.
There was something powerful about being stretched to my edge all weekend. Running on little sleep. Giving everything I had. Even stepping into fire ants, breaking out in hives, and then being held by the community, waking up the next day clear, restored, and fully back online.
That spirit was everywhere.
The staff. The volunteers. The builders. The artists. The attendees. The kindness people showed me. The conversations. The hugs. The moments that can’t be explained unless you were there.
It meant a lot to share SOQIMA with people in person. To jam with @dubfx11 , @prezencemusic and others. To witness so many gifted humans bringing their medicine.
I’m leaving full of gratitude.
Thank you to everyone who made this real.
What we built together was rare, but now we spread it everywhere.

and all the angels on the @confluence_tx team
From @beherejared : Within 5 minutes of returning from Confluence, we received the most beautiful affirmation from Nature… a baby deer’s first steps. Watch the video to the end if you want to see it! Highlight of my day.
We have never before experienced a gathering of so many people aligned in their understanding of regenerative principles and holistic health, who immediately understood the value of our skincare collection. It was the most reaffirming experience of my professional life, and I am grateful.
50 people attended our Superfood Face Mask Ritual, and after checking our records, it looks like about 10% of you went home with one of our skincare offerings. Please tag us with your glowing faces!
For the 90% of you who made the mistake of not checking us out :-), just tag @beherefarm and @confluence_tx in any pic of you at Confluence, and we will send you a discount code for FREE shipping anywhere in the mainland U.S. for the rest of this week!
See you all next year!

To the humans who made Confluence possible…
You showed up early. You stayed late. You held space when things got tender, moved tables when things got physical, and somehow kept smiling through all of it.
Confluence doesn’t happen without you. The container we built together, the depth, the safety, the magic that unfolded, that was you. Quietly, generously, in a hundred small acts nobody saw.
We see you. And we are so grateful.
If a volunteer touched your experience this year, drop their name in the comments. Tell them what they meant to you. Let them feel it.
Thank you. All of you. 🤍
Some things can only happen when the right people gather in the right field.
Our first workshop of Confluence begins with Dr. Edith Ubuntu guiding a blindfold vision experience, inviting adults to explore perception in an entirely new way and discover what may be possible beyond their usual senses.
This is why Confluence is so special.
You arrive for one thing, then witness ten things you never expected. Deep conversations. Unexpected breakthroughs. New friendships. Laughter. Wonder. The kind of moments that remind you life is far more mysterious and beautiful than we’re often told.
When this community comes together, magic tends to happen.
And we’re just getting started. ✨
