Child Loss Retreat

A child loss retreat can be a valuable time and space for grieving parents, couples and families. The following are a few advertised child loss retreats. Check with support groups and social workers in your area for more information. If you can't find a retreat in your area, consider attending a local child loss support group or meeting with a therapist. They can direct you to resources that are both local and nationally recognized. See this webpage to learn more about child loss retreat services.

Many of these retreats include meditation, yoga and discussion groups led by perinatal bereavement experts. Although there is still a taboo surrounding the subject, the statistics are alarming. One in four pregnancies will result in miscarriage. And in the U.S. alone, 50,000 babies will die within the first 30 days. Perinatal loss retreats provide an opportunity for the public to address this growing problem and help people cope with their pain.

Visiting a child loss retreat can provide a supportive community for bereaved parents and help them process their grief. These retreats are not meant to replace counseling or support groups; they are designed for mothers to experience the healing power of community. In addition to learning new tools, you will meet other bereaved mothers who have experienced child loss and can relate to your experiences. Child loss is never easy, but the love and support of others will help you move forward.

Retreats offer an environment in which bereaved parents can process their grief and move forward. Many previous retreat attendees describe the experience as spiritually transformative. Many retreats also provide the opportunity for bereaved parents to meet and connect with other parents who have gone through similar circumstances. Losing a child is never easy for any parent, but the bereaved parents need support and love during their time of mourning. Child loss retreats are a great way to do just that. Check out this page to get helpful resources about child loss retreat centers. 

Many people feel isolated after experiencing child loss. Despite the fact that these experiences are common and often require little preparation, attending such a retreat can help. The retreat team strives to create a balance between acknowledging the pain of losing a child and focusing on the possibility of resurrection. Whether it is your first or your fifth, the support and compassion of others will help you heal from your pain. The team at a child loss retreat will offer support and hope to anyone who wants it.
