At a recent retreat, a participant found a sense of stability, through time in the nature with their backbone leaning against ancient redwoods.

Imagine a place where stability and strength are naturally restored.  Spread the word, explore your availability, and reach out with any questions.

A Priceless (and Affordable) Retreat. We passionately believe that every nurse deserves this restorative time. Thanks to the Re LAB workforce grant and an incredible 100% matching grant from the 1440 Multiversity Foundation, we have been able to cover the actual cost of the retreat at no cost to forensic nurses.
