I was “tapped on the shoulder by Spirit” one August morning when the words “Caregivers Respite” floated through my consciousness and was charged to create a holistic, hypnotic, healing platform to address the needs Caregivers have that are largely not being addressed in this way.

It was a mid-august morning and over that weekend I would have conversations with two neighbors caring for partners who were overwhelmed and exhausted by what their lives had become, would end up with COVID, and have to cancel my birthday weekend and would learn that my cousin had passed away after a brief one month cancer diagnosis.

All of this rattled me, made me feel the tenuousness of life and recognize the fact that all of us, especially women in our prime will know someone who needs caregiving, be a caregiver, or need caregiving ourselves  at some point in our lives and that it could either “take us down” or be a sacred act of ongoing compassionate care, love and service, if there were practices and rituals that could replenish our inner energy stores.

Putting the hub together with its free membership, lower fee community events, private workshops, and hypnosis and energy healing sessions to support the Caregiver community is meant to provide alternative ways to help you refill your inner well and be able to caregiver from a greater place of balance, resilience and peace.

The creation of the 4 R’s of Caregiver Renewal Workshop– teaches you how to:

• Remove trapped emotions that hold caregivers back from being at peace with themselves and the job of caregiving,
• Regulate the nervous system by teaching ways to release stress and come to inner harmony and steadiness,
• Renew your life energy with Stress Less techniques that help create balance and self-renewing rituals that manage daily challenges with greater ease and 
• Reframe to Reclaim your sense of yourself with the promise of being able to create a future vision for yourself of what is possible, beyond this moment in time. 

Our Caregiver Renewal Retreats are designed to give you an R&R weekend in lovely Lambertville, NJ at our Troy Wellness Center, where you can book a local hotel/ air bnb and enjoy what our beautiful tourist area has to offer, in the evenings and breaks of the retreat schedule.

The retreat itself is with other Caregiver women who understand your lifestyle, responsibilities and are coming to be renewed with self-care practices that are easy, effective and energizing.
