ONGOING PROGRAMS
Our home is in Vancouver, BC, Canada, where we have a retreat-like space for supporting our community, and for our nonprofit administration. Our ongoing programs and services are created primarily for past retreat participants who wish to continue to develop emotionally and spiritually, as well as for their loved ones. We offer counselling and artistic support, massage therapy, and healing circles to individuals and families who are living with cancer at any stage, or who are grieving the loss of a loved one.
