Retreats for coping and recovering from cancer

Battling cancer is a journey that entails many complexities. The physical limitations, reduced functionality, changes in domestic roles, changed appearance, and thoughts about the future– all carry a significant mental impact. This mental complexity, which at times remains even post-cure, is what motivated us to initiate the ‘Healing Together’ retreat– a boutique retreat that we like to view as a boost to the soul. 

Even if you are surrounded by a warm loving family, by friends who know how to read you, and by an exceptionally accepting environment, there are lonely moments in this journey of coping. Moments in which you want to say out loud what’s on your heart without worrying your loved ones, to express your fears and concerns without being pitied, to talk about the pain, the symptoms and the changes that you’re experiencing, to complain and to be angry, to laugh, to cry, and to feel that there is someone who really gets you.

Your place

We invite you to join us at a  Healing Together’ retreat – a unique and wonderful boutique retreat for female cancer patients and survivors. Two days to switch off in a time capsule full of opportunities to unwind, relax the body and the mind, and enjoy a magical space full of content, workshops, lectures, meetings, and an invitation to let go and recharge.

Join our retreat to look inside yourself, to give room to all the contemplations, thoughts and feelings, to enrich yourself, illuminate your soul, create, breathe, release the body, and fall in love with yourself once more. 

Who is this retreat for?

Women who are battling cancer or who have survived cancer in the last two years. The connection that is formed between the women during this retreat creates a powerful support and empowerment group that usually endures long after the meeting. 

What happens there?

The retreat takes place 3-4 times per year and includes 30-35 women.

To provide retreat participants the safest and most pleasant space where they can express their deepest emotions, we created a wonderful and meticulous shell in which even the smallest details were considered. From the welcome note and the goody bag to the small gift on the pillow, from the snacks that are available throughout the day to the staff members and content that are handpicked to match the retreat’s concept and atmosphere.  

Retreat content

Each retreat offers different content and alternating speakers, but the general focus is on the realms of mind, body and spirit. 

  • Movement workshops (yoga/tai chi/biodanza)
  • Enrichment workshops (sound healing/naturopathy/sexuality during illness)
  • Arts workshops for personal exploration (jewelry making/mandala)
  • Therapeutic workshops led by professional therapists/social workers/psychologists and more
  • “Letting go” evenings (drumming workshop/belly dancing/standup)  

    The workshops and meetings will be accompanied by nourishing meals, coffee and snack bars and treats throughout the day.
