About Us

“WHEN YOU DO THINGS FROM YOUR SOUL,

YOU FEEL A RIVER MOVING IN YOU, A JOY.” - RUMI

RIVERBANK is a place to sit with yourself and listen to the stream of your soul. To connect within, connect with others, and find some peace amongst the hustle of Los Angeles’s identity driven culture. A landing pad for the discovery of our truest selves, a wisdom exchange to tap into, a sacred and safe place to feel freely human, and a place to ask all the questions that we are fearful of asking. Soul care, spiritual nourishment, wellness respite - call it what you will, your heart is longing to make sense of itself and your mind wants to quiet down. Beyond the surface of our limitations, resistance, and fears, there is a well within that is there for your highest self to emerge. Following her path of spiritual devotion, healing traumas, and expanding her own consciousness, Paige Appel founded RIVERBANK with her fellow seeker and long time best friend, Alli Webb, as a collective offering to the community.

RIVERBANK is a place for all lineages and those with no idea what their spiritual connection is. As our teacher, Jan Birchfield says, “there is nowhere to go, nothing to do, nothing to fix”. We are designed to tap into a deeper substratum within our being as the source of all knowing. We are here in earth school as spiritual beings having a human experience, wrestling with those aspects of existence and wanting to feel whole on a meaningful level. What a phenomenon to bring the soul’s full expression into the world, to know more of who we truly are and feel true joy. Come to the river and see what comes in for you.
