Healing Retreats

Imagine…. Three days devoted to empowering yourself, soothing your heart, refining your path and revitalizing your soul in a beautiful, serene, peaceful environment.

This 3-day healing weekend retreat is designed for women who are in or have been in a physically and/or emotionally abusive relationship. The weekend retreat provides a safe haven from which to sort out the past, come to terms with it, and begin to sense that there is life beyond abuse.

By freeing yourself of past pain and struggle, the road to relationships free of violence, anguish, and pain becomes accessible. The future offers the possibilities of life where the best is, indeed, yet to be.

Join others who can relate to your experiences on the path to Life Beyond Abuse during this transformational healing retreat weekend. View Events
