Sacred Grieving: Transforming Loss Into Love
A five-day healing and educational retreat
for bereaved individuals
and bereavement professionals
Oct. 4 - Oct. 9, 2009
Kealakekua Bay, HI.
Whether you're mourning the physical death of a loved one or a loss of any kind, please consider joining us for a week of transformational healing in one of Hawaii's most beautiful retreat locations (www.kamelealoha.com).
During this extraordinary retreat you'll learn to transmute the pain of grief and separation into new forms of love and awareness. Guided by Terri Daniel and Dr. Anna Noe Bonas (a practitioner of Ho'oponopono, a traditional Hawaiian form of emotional healing), you will have the opportunity to move beyond pain while honoring the transformative gifts of grief:
. Learn to accept and embrace impermanence
. Work with the natural ebb and flow of human experience
. Find joy and gratitude in life again
. Understand loss, pain, contraction and expansion
. Develop tools for re-opening a wounded heart
. Establish new connections to love and compassion
. Honor the grief journey with sacred practice
. Move from the inward energy of grief to spiritual spaciousness
The retreat will be held in a private Hawaiian home on Kealakekua Bay (which means "Pathway to the Gods"). We'll be a small intimate group, which will allow each person special care in his or her grief journey. Our coming together in this tropical paradise offers a rare opportunity to heal, reflect and move beyond pain while allowing grief to transform our lives.
Registration fee includes accommodations, workshop programs, massage, private counseling sessions and three gourmet meals a day. Our chef, Sulin Bell, will be happy to accommodate any special dietary needs.
ABOUT THE TEACHERS
Terri Daniel, author, transition guide after-death communicator
Terri is an author, intuitive grief guidance facilitator and afterlife awareness educator who works with telepathic assistance from guides and teachers in the higher realms. In addition to conducting classes on meditation, manifestation, divination and channeling, Terri works with hospices, clergy, counselors and bereaved individuals throughout the U.S., offering alternative perspectives on death, dying and the afterlife.
Her most recent book, A Swan in Heaven, is based on dialogs with her son, who died at age 16 and now shares insightful, inspired teachings from the Other Side. Her new book, 'Embracing Death: A New Look at Grief, Gratitude and God,' explores cultural and religious myths about the afterlife and offers a path to alternative perceptions via meditation, visualization and after-death communication. She is currently pursing a degree in religious studies at Marylhurst University, and is certified as a transition guide in Art of Conscious Dying into the Light.
