“You may not be able to see it now, however, after a loss, you will rebuild yourself. You have been given the opportunity to create yourself anew. Who will you be now?”    ~David Kessler 

  • Are you feeling an emptiness in your heart after your great loss?
  • Do you reach outside yourself for ways to cope with your grief and loss?
  • Have you felt stuck in moving forward in your life because you have forgotten who you are and what you want in life? 
  • Do you want to move forward back into the world with purpose?
  • Are you ready to really live again, but don’t know how? 

This is a retreat from your ordinary world and coping with your grief into a healing space where it’s safe to meet, process, and heal your pain. 

You will be introduced to the principles and practices of Transformational Presence – an approach that assists you to drop below the surface of your thoughts and the disturbance in your emotions and get to the core of who you truly are – your essential beingness. We will explore ways of letting go of the pain of the past, healing your hurting heart, and stepping forward into your new life – one of purpose, passion, and power. 

Slow down and have a conversation with your grief – in a safe space
