About this event

  • Event lasts 7 hours

This retreat is a deeply restorative experience designed to nurture emotional resilience, foster connection, and promote holistic healing through community care. Through guided practices such as breathwork, movement, bodywork, and reflective journaling, participants will explore ways to release stored trauma and reconnect with their inner strength.


The day features moments of intentional silence, mindful eating, and therapeutic exercises that encourage self-awareness and grounding. Participants will engage in practices that align the body and mind, including fascial maneuvers and soma-focused techniques, all aimed at restoring balance and vitality.


With an emphasis on creating a safe, supportive space, the retreat allows for deep integration of the healing journey. Attendees will leave with a renewed sense of peace, empowerment, and tools to carry forward into everyday life.

WELCOME TO THE TRAUMA & EMBODIMENT ASSOCIATION OF ONTARIO

TEAO is a start-up non-profit organization that will provide high-quality, embodied, trauma-informed and culturally-competent services for youth and adults/families in Ontario. Our focus is on prevention and recovery, providing advocacy for vulnerable and marginalized community members, and challenging the root causes of oppression within the healthcare system. We hope to weave a web of interconnected and trauma-informed mental health services across Ontario, so that no one who needs support slips through the cracks

We all have “unconsciously rooted” stories. These stories are connected to our bodies and lived out in the unspoken language between each other's bodies. For example, our uncomfortable or ‘’over” comfortable feelings, guilt, shame, anger, fear - these may be projected into our diverse community spaces if left unconscious. Once conscious, we can bring these feelings to visibility by being authentic in the shared experience.

OUR MOTTO: "Transforming Mental Health Care in Canada, One Community at a Time"
