Drawing on a variety of respected contemporary sources this program of contemplative Mindfulness was developed for use in a one-day format. Since October 2004 the retreat agenda has included experiential exercises, introduction to meditation techniques and relaxation, group support, lunch, and self-care activities engaging participants in a process of transforming their experience of death. The unique surroundings emphasize the non-threatening, safe aspect of Mindfulness, the core of the training.
Predominantly geared for pediatric personnel, the discovery that caregivers of adult patients also found the Mindfulness retreat meaningful and healing has opened the retreat to professionals who care for either children or adults. Please apply only if you are a professional health caregiver.
