Enter the Temple
What if there was a place...
...where the table was already set?
Black Butterfly Temple is a community built around real things - food, land, healing, and showing up for each other. No performance required. Just people doing the work together.
There's a seat here for you.

The Dream
Eleven acres in southwest Iowa. Three tiers of land. A pond. A fire circle. Hobbit style structures built into the earth. Morning Yoga or Tai-Chi. Sound Baths. Reiki. Community gatherings.
This is not a concept. It's a campus under construction - a regenerative sanctuary where community gathers, healing happens, and people learn to nourish themselves - body, mind, and table.
We're building it from the ground up. You can be part of that.

Mission Statement
Black Butterfly Temple is a nonprofit sanctuary dedicated to fostering healing, education, and personal empowerment. Through workshops, retreats, and community gatherings—including yoga, Reiki, sound healing, and spiritual education—we create spaces where individuals can explore reflection, storytelling, and shadow work while reconnecting with themselves, their community, and the natural world.
Vision Statement
Our vision is to cultivate a community where people reclaim their inner power, restore sacred connections with themselves and the land, and support one another through transformation, resilience, and collective growth.
