Grief takes many forms. This retreat offers a space to normalize your experiences and challenge common myths. Through guided journaling and reflection, you will explore your story, what you carry, and what carries you. You will leave with a greater awareness of how you treat yourself, along with simple tools to meet yourself with greater compassion. We?ll close with a restorative yoga practice to support rest and integration.
Come as you are; no writing or yoga experience needed.
