About Us

The Area Team of Northern California meets four times a year and is composed of a volunteer group of people dedicated to providing a variety of retreats, programs and services designed to enhance the spiritual growth for those seeking to further their own spiritual enlightenment.

Our Ideal: That we may come together in shared values and a collective spiritual path in hopes that it may benefit all beings.

Our Mission: The mission of the A.R.E. of Northern California Area Team is to provide individuals with community and resources for exploring and applying universal truths and holistic health practices as found in the philosophy of the Edgar Cayce Readings and related materials.

There are many little ways to contribute to making things happen that take minimal amounts of time and work and with the members of the local Area Teams. To learn how you can contribute, please contact us at this e-mail address listed on this website.
