Enhance your well-being, slow-down and turn inward. To care for others, we need places to care for ourselves. By the Fireside is a daylong retreat for professional or family caregivers.
Receive a day of self-care in a soul-nourishing retreat environment. Become grounded in yourself through self-exploration, body-centred movement and focused dialogue with other caregivers. By working with reflective tools, connect and nurture sources of healing and wisdom within. Clarify what supports and prevents you in integrating self-care into daily life. Designed for renewal and the cultivation of self-compassion.
At the end of the day, this retreat date can include an evening thermal spa experience

The Terrain of
Grief and Mourning
The faces of grief are many: death, relationship loss, loss of home or homeland, health and job losses, severence from ancestral stories and rituals, sorrow for the degradation of the earth and more.
Pause, connect, learn about the natural, necessary process of grief and mourning. Receive tools to attend to the large and small losses that touch each of our lives and a supportive process to honour the needs of grief. Experience the new vitality that happens when the pain of loss is welcomed rather than avoided or resisted.
