What Past Participants are saying: 

“I loved the sense of community and safety and acceptance, and the emotional generosity.”

“I loved being able to work in small groups with the other participants. Panels were interesting. The space was gorgeous and relaxing to be in. I enjoyed the free-time activities (I did art and yoga).”

“A place that many clinician leaders came to share their personal trauma and discuss projects that are personal to them.  Overall I would recommend it if you are in. place to find community around vulnerability as a clinician.”

“I have described it as a weekend that courageously journeys far beyond the Mindfulness cliche, deep into the heart of those whom we trust with our lives and meets them there in all their humanity.”
