THE
SANCTUARY
with Mary Lofgren
A place to step out of the noise, quiet self criticism, and relax into the pleasure of the senses, the wisdom of the body, and the power of the present moment
We believe in the power of the pause.
With all the distractions and pressures that life brings, slowing down to pause is a radical act.
Pausing to breathe-in the beauty of connection.
Pausing to be tender.
Pausing to listen to our inner voice.
Pausing to consider what we really think and feel, instead of what everybody else thinks and feels.
Pausing to rest and digest before we take in more.
There is great magic in the sacred pause.
Everything in life transforms with the quality of our presence.
There are multitudes of ways to come home to ourselves: meditation, fasting, vision quests, just to name a few.
Some of us crave a path to presence that glitters with beauty, sensuality, and simple pleasures.
Here, you’ll find a collection of bite-sized rituals & luxurious lessons to infuse life with wonder, one simple pleasure at a time.
Unfold into beauty & perfume life with play

Indulge in a weekly listening salon & ritual of loveliness
Indulge in a 15-minute, charmed lesson + small ritual of loveliness, every week.
This private podcast folds Mary’s signature style of teaching with warmth and humor, into bite sized lessons for ease and simplicity.
These audios focus on transforming tiny corners of life into portals of wonder and luxury, one 15-minute ritual at a time.
Together we’ll bring divinity into dishwashing, practice the secrets of sensual living, make skincare sacred, nourish our neural pathways, and so…much…more.

Each week we gather for 30-minutes of guided feminine embodiment & mindfulness practices, in community. We follow a rotation of:
Rejuvenating Beauty Rituals
Soulful Writing Rituals
Candlelit Movement Rituals
Heartfelt Coaching & Connection
Our schedule is designed to accommodate multiple time zones and preferences. Check out the schedule here.

FAQ’s

No. Our community is mostly made up of women and femmes, but The Sanctuary is open to anyone seeking a more feminine way of being in their day to day life.
-
We think of growth and mental health like a house: therapy provides the foundation for a safe and steady space, personal growth provides the furnishings.
The safety and well being of our community members is our top priority. Mindfulness can be supportive, and it can also be triggering when there is active trauma on board. Personal growth containers are not a substitute for therapy, and can sometimes distract from the very important foundational work of therapeutic healing.
Therefore, if you are experiencing a time of instability, serious depression and/or anxiety, or are actively recovering from serious trauma or PTSD, we gently suggest that you not join the Sanctuary until you feel you are in a place of stability.
Mary is a certified Feminine Embodiment Coach, which is a trauma sensitive method of coaching. It is not, however, trauma centric, and is not indicated for the direct healing or resolution of trauma.
If you are in a recovery process, we may ask for a note from a therapist confirming that it is safe to participate in a coaching container before joining.
We wish you and all humans grace and support on the journey of healing. If you have any questions on this or any of our policies, please reach out to hello@schoolofsensualliving.com.

We don’t offer scholarships, but we do offer a Resource Redistribution Rate for those who identify as BIPOC, Gender Variant, Sexy Sage (Over the age of 65), Folks with Disabilities, or Single Parent. We also offer this rate to those who live in countries where there is a -3.0 or more difference in the exchange of currency to USD.
Offering this rate is an effort towards the redistribution of resources to those don't experience the same level of privilege as folks who are white, cisgender, able bodied, heteronormative, etc.
We are sorry but we do not have a financial hardship rate available at this time.

Each month we explore a different theme, infused into your life in small spoonfuls. The Sanctuary is delivered in a three weeks on, one week off format.
The first three weeks of the month, you'll receive a Weekly Audio Charm & Ritual of Loveliness, as well as a live, 30-minute practice in the Sanctuary Spa (see the spa schedule here.)
The fourth week of the month we take a Sacred Pause, with no new content or gatherings released, to rest, digest, and make space for the next month’s delights.
(On months where there is a 5th week, we feature amazing special guests.)
-
We do not offer refunds for month to month purchases, but you can cancel anytime before the 30 day renewal mark, and you will not be charged again.
If you purchase the annual membership (yay! welcome!) and after 14 days you feel the experience is not for you, you can request a refund for your purchase amount, less a 10% processing/admin fee.
