A Day of Renewal: Grounding after Cancer is a one-day retreat designed to help cancer patients & survivors reconnect with themselves and restore balance. Through mindfulness practices, yoga nidra, radical writing, and connection to other survivors, you will tap into inner strength and discover ways to ground and center yourself after a cancer diagnosis. This retreat offers a safe, supportive space for reflection and processing, allowing you to feel empowered as you move forward in your healing process. Whether seeking emotional release, physical relaxation, or connection to a community, we will offer you tools and space for renewal and growth. A healthy, nourishing lunch is included as part of your registration fee. Space is limited!
