Grief-Healing Retreat Up North C


heryl Downey, M.Div., retired hospice chaplain and founder of Sacred Wheel Center for Grief and Healing, is holding a grief-healing retreat, November 5 to 8, at Cove Point Lodge, in Beaver Bay. “The Big Waters of Lake Superior


are dramatic and moving, especially in November, and offer powerful ener- gies to inspire grief healing. Water is a profound teacher and, like grief, is inherently changeable, deeply cleansing and life-nourishing,” says Downey. Similar to her Florida retreat last May, which received great reviews, the up- coming North Shore Grief-Healing Retreat is appropriate for anyone grieving any kind of loss, present or past, since it is based on individual movement around the ancient Sacred Wheel through the use of reflections, guided meditations and art creations (no experience needed). The cost includes beautiful Scandinavian-inspired cottages with lake views,


wonderful meals, half-hour healing sessions from four local practitioners and cus- tomized grief healing teas and essential oils. Downey has worked with death, dying, life losses and grief for almost 35


years, and has seen the immense benefit people can receive by acknowledging the grief that resides within them. “Grief, by nature, is healing movement, transform- ing painful emptiness of loss into creative mystery,” she says. “By keeping a lid on the sacred well of grief’s emergence, the awesome changing power of feminine energy flowing up from our inner depths, creating new life, is blocked. Each emo- tion has a story to tell; each awareness is a divine messenger. The innermost truth sings the song of life within. Beauty rests in each grieving heart.”


Cost: $650 due by November 1 (limited to 20 attendees). Call 612-272-3977 to pay by credit/debit card. For more details, visit SacredWheelCenter.com and click on North Shore Retreat. See ad, page 18.
