RECAP: Fusion Wellness Retreat 2019 - Black Creek, BC
In June 2019, for the second year in a row, Martha hosted a 'Fusion Wellness Retreat' on Vancouver Island for people with spinal fusions for three days of extremely heart-warming exploration of movement, writing, beautiful ocean views, and fantastic local food.
The movement sessions — Martha’s own special blend of breathing, yoga, somatics, freestyle dance, meditation and energy medicine — showed ways to explore more softness in a stiff body, to experiment with possibility; to establish new strength and connection; to tease out new, delicious mobility. Everyone feels better after they move!
After the movement class, the writing sessions revealed many delightful surprises. Ahava Shira's skill as a facilitator got everyone’s pens flowing, inspiring, stimulating; it was exciting. The stories brought us closer and everyone left feeling fulfilled in all the ways they could ever need — with new ideas, energy, and inspiration for looking after themselves

Designed for those with surgically corrected spines, this inspiring 4-day retreat empowers participants to connect with their bodies and helps overcome spinal discomfort. Martha’s comforting approach will assist participants with increasing mobility, improving alignment, and reducing stiffness from surgery.
Ahava is passionate about creating safe spaces for authentic expression. During the retreat, she will spend a few hours guiding participants through the four practices of Writing Alone Together to help us explore our unique and common stories of fusion. Through our writing and sharing, we will become compassionate witnesses for ourselves and each other. Our conversation will centre around the questions:
How do we come home to the crooked beauty of our bodies?
How can we thrive in a body with a fused spine?
Relax and unwind on beautiful Vancouver Island while finding new sensation and awareness in the whole body!
