For Mothers Of
A child with an eating disorder
RETREAT
The Retreat For Mothers Of is specially developed for mothers of a child with an eating disorder. This retreat is all about you. You have already given so much to help your child. You invest almost all of your energy, your love, your attention.
You are in a quandary because you may have more children, a relationship, a job, a life of your own.
And you notice that you are slowly running out of energy. At the same time, you have your own emotions such as fear, sadness and anger to deal with. In fact, you can't do it anymore and you may not even know what to do anymore. The retreat gives you the opportunity to really relax and recharge for a day. Tune in to yourself again and at the same time feel connected to women who know better than anyone what you are going through. Space to reflect on what you feel and what you need
The retreat is the eye of the hurricane in these difficult circumstances.

Method
Before the retreat you will complete a personal intake form and receive a preparation exercise.
The working methods are experience-oriented and varied. We do light yoga, there is also a lot of space to turn inward, fresh air and movement. During the retreat we will not so much "talk about", but share. We will experience, come to rest, recharge in the bed of a shared experience.
The working methods are based on Western (neuro) psychology, polyvagal theory, systemic work, internal family systems, yoga and mindfulness. The starting point is the unity of body, mind and soul; the retreat works on each of these levels to respect and restore that unity.
