About Us and the Retreat...

This retreat is designed to be a safe haven for those of us mothers that have suffered the loss of a child. Sadly if you are reading this you may understand the importance of having someone that can empathize and share with you on the same level of loss that we have experienced. After suffering through the loss of our son, I very quickly realized how important support was for me from people that truly understood my grief. Having created my own group of amazing angel moms, and participating in other bereaved mothers' retreats, I knew I needed to share my experience with others. Together with other angel mothers' we have created these sacred retreats.

We have created the weekend retreat for bereaved mothers to be nurtured and also show/teach them the benefits and value of self care. It is so important to allow yourself to be supported by others in a peaceful, safe, and comforting environment. Sharing your grief with others that truly understand you is a huge part of self care in this journey that we are all now on.

Give yourself permission to enjoy a weekend of pampering and various organized activities. Please contact us with any and all questions. We are here for you and wish to support you on this incredibly difficult journey.

Dear Cristie and Leigh Anne,

Let me first thank you and your amazing husbands for the service and love that you provide to so many broken hearts. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your love and compassion.

The weekend retreat was exactly what I had been seeking. Being among all of the other grieving mothers made me feel understood and normal. There were many times when I felt like I was losing my mind and after listening to everyone else, I have come to terms with the fact that this type of grief is overwhelming and yes, normal (if we focus on our well-being in the process). Thank you for providing the space, outlet and encouragement for us to forge forward in meaningful and positive ways.

I admire your strength and dedication to want to help so many others while you yourselves are still grieving your losses. I am sure that Taylor and Andrew are smiling in heaven with immense pride and joy! You are amazing!

Again, I want to thank you and your partners for paving the way for us lost souls to see some light ahead!

Forever grateful and inspired!

With Love,
Pam

Attending the Bereaved Mother’s retreat was exactly what I needed. I didn’t understand how desperate I was for the company of other women who get the depth of grief I was feeling. Who would listen and cry with me. I loved being able to share and listen to their stories. Learning how to meditate and take time to be still was a valuable lesson I now use on a daily basis. The weekend was full of self care and delicious food. I left feeling refreshed and equipped with new friends and ideas to help carry my heart through the unimaginable. Thank you Cristie for putting together this retreat.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity. You were so right, this retreat was everything I needed. I wouldn’t be where I am now if it was not for you. I miss my son so much, but I am not avoiding it anymore because that was avoiding him. I am more open now thanks to you and the retreat. Thank you PL SLC, UT

I just wanted to thank you personally for the mothers weekend. The attention to detail, gift baskets, programming, food, services and ICE CREAM made it such a nurturing space. Thank you!! When I’m in a place to give back and honor my son…I have so much to learn from you. Your Taylor was such a lucky boy to have a mothers love like yours.
