DESCRIPTION:
These one-day retreats provide a sacred and healing sanctuary for cancer survivors, their caregivers, and loved ones to rediscover their authentic self during the physical, psychological and spiritual journey that comes with diagnosis, treatment, healing and recovery.
Gather with others joined by similar experience for a day of mental and physical rejuvenation by working with breath and meditation to relieve stress and connect with the wholeness inherent in your being.
Receive deep and powerful Ayurvedic therapies—Shirodhara, a powerful treatment that includes the pouring of specially blended warm oils to the scalp with massage to calm the nervous system and balance hormones, foot treatments and head massages to instill calmness and clarity. Gentle yoga, guided breathwork, guided imagery and expressive arts are additional healing modalities used here.
In addition to the treatments, our Ayurvedic-trained practitioners will share the process of disease from the perspective of this 5000-year old science. From there, the process of self-healing is encouraged as retreatants find the inner peace that will guide them through their own unique journeys. An organic and balancing lunch will be prepared and served along with tea and light snacks throughout the day.
