Retreats for Breast Cancer Survivors
Infinite Boundaries® Retreats
Breast Cancer Recovery provides environments for women breast cancer survivors to heal emotionally.
Breast Cancer Recovery recognizes that while cancer cannot be cured, it is possible for our mind and body to be healed.
On retreat, women learn coping and communication skills and develop strategies for stress reduction, exercise and nutrition, intimacy after cancer and adapting to changes in body image.
All retreats are designed and conducted by survivors for survivors. Breast Cancer Recovery embraces all women with breast cancer including all faiths, ages, races, sexual orientations and financial resources. Women in all stages are welcome to attend - from the newly diagnosed to women many years in remission. Women ages 20 - 71 have attended a retreat.
There is healing in nature and retreats are held in beautiful locales. Infinite Boundaries retreats take place throughout Wisconsin - Madeline Island, Door County, Wisconsin Dells and Eagle River.
Because women living with breast cancer often face considerable medical expense during and after diagnosis, Breast Cancer Recovery places a strong emphasis on ensuring that all women – regardless of financial standing – can experience an Infinite Boundaries retreat. We offer scholarships and have never turned away anyone who wished to attend an Infinite Boundaries retreat.
