“Live Again Retreat” Program
“Live Again Retreat” will be held in Volusia County and will be geared towards mothers, couples and eventually grandparents. The mission behind “Live Again Retreat” is to empower people to find hope in dreaming again and living again, to experience the world around them in a fresh new way through experiences/experiential modalities - like bike riding, building sand castles, fishing, surfing, paddle boarding, maybe even boogie boarding. This experiential and tactile program will include time for reflection, journaling and dream board making. There will also be group support time for attendees to share openly and candidly with their peers, listen to music to reflect and dream.
“Live Again Retreat” is one of the only retreats of its kind on the east coast and will be open to all loss families – not just The Finley Project families.
The long-term vision is to have a permanent home in NSB where we host weekend retreats for mothers/couples and have space available for a couple to come in a more recent loss, to be alone together, with tools/resources to work through. There will be no cost to attend except a small application fee.
