Designed for individuals preparing for breast cancer surgery\, this retreat combines:\n• Simple mind-body techniques to support you before surgery\n• Gentle Qi Gong movement for relaxation and connection\n• Guided expressive art to explore and express your experience\n• Optional sharing and community ritual with drumming\n• Space for reflection and group conversation\nYou are invited to participate in whatever way feels right for you.

This retreat is about meeting yourself with compassion and finding support in a community of others walking a similar path.\n \nOpen to the public. This retreat is designed for people impacted by breast cancer. Sign up here: https://www.dempseycenter.org/services/classes-workshops/public/  \n \nLed by Dempsey Center Staff + Volunteers.\n
