Life and Living - healing cancer retreat
Life and Living is a ten day transformative program to meet and help overcome the challenges of cancer.
Program Overview
The aim of the program is to help you to develop full confidence in establishing a healthy, healing lifestyle. When you return home, as your life continues, you will be confident that you are doing all that is possible to experience and sustain a life filled with peace, meaning and good health. On this ten day retreat style program you will learn principles and skills that can transform your life. We have seen many cases of personal triumph.
The Principles of 'Life and Living'
Our bodies have a natural, inherent capacity to heal themselves. The principles you will learn in this program will enable you to activate and develop that healing power, maximising your body's potential to restore its natural state of balance and vitality.
This is a self-help approach that is intended to work with and reinforce effective medical treatments, as well as complementary therapies.

Format
Sessions
Most sessions involve learning through direct participation and experience. Discussion is encouraged and there is plenty of time for questions and answers. You will meet and share with a group of wonderful and exceptional people.
Attending the program with support
Attending with a partner/support person is recommended wherever possible. Sharing in the program allows the support person to understand and support you in implementing and integrating what you have learnt. It is also a great opportunity for them to take some time for themselves, to address issues that they face in that caring role, and to share in this profound, inspiring and instructive time.
Medical and therapeutic support
While doctors do lead several of the program's sessions, the Yarra Valley Living Centre is a non-medical facility. A not for profit organisation, The Gawler Foundation remains independent of any product, therapy, company, publication or person.
Additional Services available during the cancer healing retreat
- Counselling: Private consultation appointments are available with our counselling staff before, during or after the program.
