WELLNESS RETREATS

“During my darkest days of cancer and chemo I barely felt alive and never felt beautiful. But this week has affirmed that I am living and am a beautiful me just as I am.”

— Traci Coffman

Our “signature” programs are Wellness Retreats. Wellness Retreats are 3-4 day journeys that transport our participants out of their everyday grind of coping with cancer into a peaceful environment where they are fully immersed in holistic lifestyle training. These empowering retreats encourage our participants to incorporate self-care, wellness and healing practices as they return to the obstacles of their daily lives. From our special healthy menus, co-education workshops and classes, as well as lifestyle consultations, every aspect of their stay on a retreat envelops Living Beauties with healthy and compassionate care. Additionally, Living Beauty provides an array of activities for our Living Beauties including yoga, guided meditation, art therapy, swimming, and nature walks. The four retreats we offer annually are:

  • HeArt Healing Retreat

    The HeArt Healing Retreat is an intimate gathering of Living Beauties who are invited to go deep within and focus on love…for themselves and in their connections with others. Living Beauties are able to explore art and personal narrative as a tool for emotional wellness; including meditation, journaling and body movement.

  • Serenity Yoga Retreat

    Living Beauty Yoga Ambassador and y4c (Yoga 4 Cancer) Founder Tari Prinster guides the Living Beauties in Gentle and Restorative y4c yoga. The goal of this retreat experience is aimed toward overall wellness in mind, body and spirit by way of yoga, meditation, education and nourishment. Set in a beautiful retreat environment, the Serenity Yoga Retreat is ideal for our personal healing and rejuvenation.

  • Soul Nourishment Retreat

    Nourishment. “It’s a word we use to describe what food can do for our body, but it’s also used to describe what we get from relationships with others, with our family and with ourselves. It can describe joys, pleasure and all things that contribute to our health and well-being and a place of belonging and fullness.” ~FFLB Ambassador Caspar Poyck. Although the focus of this retreat is nourishment of our bodies through nutritional workshops, Living Beauties come away with peaceful minds and rejuvenated souls.

  • Goddess Wellness Retreat

    Living Beauties are introduced to the holistic lifestyle through workshops and classes at the Goddess Wellness Retreat. From the very first day, Living Beauties experience an immersion into a world of healing through education, nature, nourishment and sisterhood.

  • Day Retreats

    Day Retreats are one-day snapshots of our wellness retreats, usually located in the greater Los Angeles area. Mind, Body and Soul are awakened and strengthened so that our Living Beauties can continue their courageous journeys.
