When is a good time for those in the healing professions to recover space for themselves to heal? What is the healing value of stress-free time to simply be?

Led by Amalia Miralrio and Scarlet Macaw Trips, this experience offers healers working in any capacity (psychotherapists, psychiatrists, social workers, massage therapists and other body work practitioners) the space, time, and support rarely afforded to put themselves front and center. This restorative sojourn will also allow them to address personal or vocational issues and work on unresolved histories they may have put on the back-burner while treating others.

Via peer-to-peer workshops facilitated by AMALIA, LSW, MSW, MED, complemented by enriching activities in the inspiringly beautiful coffee-growing region of Colombia, we will open up a space for collective and individual growth, catered to those who spend the majority of time healing others.

What have you neglected to address since beginning your career as a service provider? Do you wish you could speak to healers outside of your daily network, professional or academic? Could you use a self-nurturing getaway? Can you imagine an all-new environment that lets you get some healthy distance from pressures that have grown all-too familiar?
