Tell me more about a Retreat

We offer these Cancer Wellness Retreats to help others who are interested in learning ways to better manage their stress and energy, open their hearts, and connect with others that are dealing with similar issues. 

Offered from our property in the foothills of Western NC, each Retreat is totally unique but will include a blend of activities such as:
    • Daily morning movement (gentle yoga, qi gong, tai chi)
    • New experiences to better manage your energy and stress
    • Laugher, storytelling and sharing with others living with cancer
    • Light hike and/or hammock time, listening to the sounds of the creek and nearby waterfall
    • Bon Fire (marshmallows optional!)

ALL OF OUR RETREATS seek time for laughter, bonding and relaxation. We accomplish this with activities like light hikes, tai chi, watercolors and art time, drumming, interactive cooking, and also teaching participants other stress reduction techniques like deep relaxation, yoga, and guided imagery.

We have also been fortunate to have special guests at some previous retreats including Tai Chi, Specialty Chef, Oncology Nutritionist, Sound Therapist, Art Experts, Musicians, Massage Therapists, and more.  


Is this Retreat for Me?

If you are looking to slow down, relax, try new things, or possibly reset your outlook, contact us for an application.  

Please note, however, we offer these retreat experiences from our home and property, and are not a medical facility.  So, it is important each person is able to handle their own medical needs and is able to walk up and down stairs and uneven gravel paths.

 The Cost

We do NOT charge participants, allowing participants to focus on healing rather than economic concerns. Transportation is the participant's responsibility.  

This is truly a grassroots effort, and one that believes in a "pay it forward" philosophy.   We are a 501(c)3 non profit organization and are funded by lots of wonderful individual contributors and small business Sponsors. 

Visit our Donations page to see how this is done and/or to help continue these unique healing experiences!!!
