Fall Retreat 2006

We closed the Fall season of change and transformation with a Health and Healing Retreat on the sand dune beach of Ferry Beach Park in Saco, ME.

With the ocean as the background, 20 adventure women experienced a weekend of expressive and healing arts. Leah Carey, director of “Bosom Buddies”, led us through guided writing exercises and expressive activities to Reclaim Our Voice. Yoga and Reiki sessions, walking the beach at dawn, sunset and by moonlight, our Sharing Circle around the campfire, dancing the night away with DansKinetics, relaxing by the woodstove in the company of our breast sisters and our moving Healing Ceremony were the highlights of our weekend.

"This Retreat weekend was beyond my wildest expectations.  I felt so empowered and made such a strong connection with these amazing women."

 

 

"The writing reflections really opened me up and helped us all share.  I gained perspective and joy for the little gifts."

 

"I am amazed by the women who take part in the BJBBCR.  They are open, welcoming, supportive and so loving.  I watched each woman give as many gifts as she received.  I encourage any breast cancer survivor to take advantage of this opportunity!" 
Leah Carey, Presenter
