“This retreat provided a safe environment, Dr. C had many resources to use and to kept the flow going whenever we were working together. The biggest thing to do is go with an open mind and allow her to care for you as she leads you towards your wellness goals.

After being a caregiver for my grandmother, when she passed away I didn't quite know what to do with myself. I really needed to learn how to connect with who I am and learn how to do that. I felt that 4 days would give me the time to really learn and be able to implement the tools that I would be given.

I liked the one-on-one interaction with the teacher, Dr. Carla, and the things she taught me about self-compassion, boundaries and helping me find ways to better understand my emotions and finding my voice to express them, and having fun. I left with an arsenal of tools that I can use to motivate myself, continue to learn about myself and care more about myself. I learned some easy, great-tasting recipes.

I even woke up pain-free the last morning, which hasn't happened in years!” Hope M. 2/2024 (Virginia, USA)
