Finding Yourself After Loss Retreat
2024 Theme: Learning to Love & Care for Yourself
OCTOBER 24-27, 2024 | WHISPERTREE RETREAT CENTER
BOONVILLE (MENDOCINO COUNTY), NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
We are honored and excited to host the Return to Zero California Women's Retreat at the beautiful Whispertree in Northern California. This will be a transformative journey over 4 days / 3 nights from Thursday, October 24 to Sunday, October 27, 2024.
Learning to Love and Care for Yourself After Loss is a nurturing retreat designed specifically for mothers who have experienced the heartache of pregnancy and infant loss. This retreat offers a warm and supportive environment where participants can learn to truly love and care for themselves amidst their unique journeys of healing.
This retreat is ideal for mothers who are further along in their loss journey and wish to cultivate a deeper relationship with their body, mind, and heart. It is also perfect for those struggling to trust and care for their bodies following their loss experiences, and for anyone sensing the need for some tender loving care, but unsure of how to begin. Participants will find valuable guidance in integrating movement, mindfulness, and ritual into their daily lives.
The retreat focuses on teaching somatic tools and techniques to support nervous system health, emotional regulation, and embodied self-compassion. Attendees will have the opportunity to reconnect with their sense of connection, vitality, and purpose, fostering an environment of healing and self-discovery. Whether you are looking to nurture your body, mind, and heart, or seeking a community of understanding and support, this retreat offers a compassionate space for growth and renewal.
*It is highly recommended, but not required, to be at least one year out from your loss and have participated in either a RTZ HOPE virtual support group or a previous RTZ: HOPE in-person retreat.
While your life will never be the same following loss, it is possible to return to wholeness. You don’t need to do this work in isolation.
This retreat is a carefully cultivated experience using a trauma-informed and resilience-oriented approach to guide you in a process of self-reflection, compassion, integration, and embodied action.
Please see our Testimonials and Vision statement to hear about previous retreats we have hosted. We do hope that you will join us.
