A Retreat for Body and Soul
Many of us carry stress in ways we can’t fully explain — tight shoulders, shallow breathing, restless sleep, a constant sense of being “on.”
Even when our faith is strong, the body can remain burdened.
What This Retreat Is
Live, guided vitual sessions
A quiet, trauma-informed space that respects Christian faith and practice
A consistent rhythm supporting rest, reflection, and integration
What This Retreat Is Not
This retreat is not therapy, counseling, or medical treatment.
It is not a yoga class or fitness program.
It is not a replacement for prayer, the sacraments, or spiritual direction.

Retreat Details
A Guided Reflection Journal for the Journey
A quiet companion to reflect on the retreat
Each participant will receive a guided reflection journal designed to support prayerful integration following the retreat.
This journal is not meant to analyze or explain your experience — but to gently witness it. You’ll be invited to pause, notice, and reflect on what surfaced in your body, heart, and prayer. Some reflections may be simple. Others may remain wordless. Both are welcome.
There is no expectation to share what you write. This is a private space between you and God.
What the Journal Includes
Guided scripture reading & reflection
Breathwork session instructions
TRE Session reflection
Space for general reflection, bodily awareness & prayerful noticing
Supplemental resources and prayers
The journal is offered as an invitation, not an obligation. You are free to use it as much or as little as feels right.
This Retreat May Be a Good Fit If You…
Feel chronically stressed, anxious, or tense
Desire a faith-based alternative to common wellness practices
Long for stillness but find it difficult to rest
Appreciate structure without pressure
Want to walk through Lent in a slower, embodied way
Come Rest. Release. Renew.
Sometimes it's not about becoming stronger —
it is about becoming more receptive, more honest, and more free.
As the nervous system settles, prayer often becomes less strained, and stillness more accessible.
If you feel called to a retreat that supports healing in the body and peace in the soul,
you are welcome here.
