All Grief is Welcome Here
People have asked me if the Heartbreak Hotel Retreat is only for those experiencing heartbreak from romantic love. Many years ago, when my broken heart hit me like a freight train barreling down the tracks, I needed to feel less alone in my grief. I needed a community. I needed to talk. I needed to scream. I needed to feel seen by others who knew what I was going through. So I created the emotional healing retreat I wanted all those years ago, hopefully helping others through the most tender moments of their pain.
But the heart holds many different kinds of pain. Heartbreak isn’t specific to romantic relationships. And though it can come from a divorce, it can also come from a friendship loss. It includes betrayals, job trauma and the death of a loved one or treasured pet. Every kind of heartbreak can benefit from community healing.
The pathways may be different, but the fact that you’re shattered from a profound loss has no bigger or smaller impact on your heart. When there is a crack in the sidewalk, it makes no difference if it came from an earthquake or a telephone pole. The size of the crack may be different, but it’s still a crack, regardless of the delivery mechanism. We are all grieving something, so please join us if you want a space to share all that weighs on you. Your tears are welcome here.
