25th Anniversary Celebration Recap

Updated: Oct 6, 2022

On September 24th, 2022 SoderWorld turned 25 years old. For a human lifetime that's still young, but for a business to survive 25 years is a major accomplishment. It is a testament to the heart, soul and determination of the Soderholm Family and the entire SoderWorld community.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." ~ Lao Tzu


In 1997, co-founder Misty Soderholm took the first step to open SoderWorld's doors. 25 years later we celebrate this incredible success story.


The evening's atmosphere started with positive energy, catching up with good friends and enjoying the beautiful garden.

The next part of the evening our guests gathered on the labyrinth to start the celebration of honoring the many years of service to the community.

Next, was a guided meditation and a Sound Journey led by Dreamweavers Collective and medicine songs by Soul Lullabies.

We took a break between music sets to honor co-founders Eric, Ginny, Misty and Chahé Soderholm. We spoke about the past 25 years, where we are at now and where SoderWorld is heading for the future.

Then is was time to Rock Out featuring original conscious songs by the Great Mystery.

Finally the evening concluded with the celebration of the birthday of co-founder Eric Soderholm and a song for Ginny Soderholm, "A Prayer for your Life".

What's an incredible event. It's made all of the blood, sweat and tears through the years worth every moment. Thank you to all whom made this evening something special.

This is a very well-written and uplifting recap that genuinely captures the spirit of the celebration. The way you explained the topic was very clear and helpful. I recently came across a similar discussion on a review blog, and it offered an interesting perspective as well. In a similar way, I once read a reflective piece connected to https://thesagelawgroup.ca/ that emphasized how shared experiences can shape community value. Your post does a great job of highlighting that sense of connection and appreciation throughout the event.

What a beautiful milestone — 25 years of building a space focused on healing, community, and holistic wellness is truly inspiring. Events like this reflect not just longevity but the impact of creating a meaningful experience for people over time.


It’s amazing to see how environments like these combine nature, wellness practices, and mindful design to create a sense of peace and connection.


As wellness centers continue to grow and manage bookings, workshops, and community engagement digitally, having reliable infrastructure becomes equally important.


That’s why many spaces today look for services like fiber internet for wellness centers to ensure smooth operations and seamless communication.


At the same time, building a strong digital presence helps expand reach and community engagement, where…

Really enjoyed reading this blog! A height adjustable desk is becoming a must-have for ergonomic setups. The flexibility it provides makes a big difference in productivity and comfort. I appreciate how you broke down the benefits so simply. Looking forward to more informative posts like this!

I’ve always admired spaces that honor inner balance and self-expression. That’s one of the reasons I decided to design a custom necklace recently—it felt like the perfect way to carry a symbol of my personal journey close to my heart. The way Olertis brings together meaning, craftsmanship, and individuality really speaks to me. Just like the anniversary event celebrated transformation and mindfulness, having something uniquely mine helps me stay grounded and present. It’s beautiful when jewelry becomes more than decoration—it becomes a part of your story.
