"This is something that more loss parents need to experience."
- Weekend participant
Wellness Support Weekend
Every year at the end of May we provide a safe space for bereaved mothers to grieve and heal in community. There is nothing that can ever fix having to live without one or more of your children. This weekend allows parents to let their guard down, something that does not happen often. It truly is like coming up for fresh air when you've been struggling to breathe.
Self Care Hobbies
You have a choice in everything that you do or do not at the retreat. There are a few self care opportunities and crafts throughout the weekend that are offered for you to complete. All directions, supplies, and support along the way are provided.
Professionally facilitated sessions
Throughout the weekend, there are sessions facilitated by many different practitioners to help validate your feelings, connecting with yourself and your baby while creating ways to support you once leaving this space.
Fire Ceremonies
We spend a lot of time connecting together especially around the fire. We connect on many things while getting to know our children and each other. It is a magical space to let your walls down, connect and be in community.
