Yes. The Healer’s Gathering was created specifically for doctors, nurses, therapists, caregivers, and others working in healthcare who are experiencing burnout, emotional fatigue, or nervous system overload. The retreat offers a restorative space to step out of caregiving roles and focus on your own rest, reflection, and renewal in a supportive, non-clinical environment.

No prior experience is required. All activities are gently guided and optional. This retreat is designed to meet you exactly where you are — whether you are new to intentional rest and reflection or have prior experience with retreats, mindfulness, or somatic practices. There is no expectation to “perform,” share beyond your comfort level, or participate in everything offered.

The Healer’s Gathering is not a clinical or medical retreat. It is a restorative, land-based experience focused on rest, reflection, and stepping out of professional roles. There is no required spiritual belief or therapeutic participation, and all activities are optional and gently guided.
