About this trip

✍️ Gentle, Guided ReflectionIn soft, optional sessions filled with honest conversation, journaling prompts, and holy silence, you’ll begin to name what you’ve walked through…and tenderly imagine what comes next.No pressure to “figure it all out.” Just space to be with it. 🌿 Deep Rest for Your Weary SoulThis isn't just a break. It's a reset. A sacred unraveling. A place when you can finally exhale with guilt. 💬 Real Connection With Women Who Get ItYou won’t need to explain your grief.  Or minimize your pain. You’ll be surrounded by widows who understand the ache before you even speak it. This is sisterhood, rooted in mutual knowing, not performance. 🌊 Softening Through Movement and NatureLet the earth help hold you. Whether it’s barefoot beach walks, slow, restorative yoga, or simply resting under a palm tree, you’ll feel your body begin to soften. No striving. Just sacred movement that invites release. 🕊️ Safe Space to Be Still and Breathe AgainThere’s no schedule to keep. No role to play. This is your permission slip to stop holding it all together. To sit in stillness. To cry. To laugh. To do nothing at all. To breathe like your body has been waiting for this moment.
