705Healing in the Sedona Red Rock!

“Adventure is not outside man; it is within.” [George Eliot] Travel to the beautiful red rock terrain of central Arizona to indulge in a two-night stay at the Amara Resort & Spa in Sedona. In addition to being known for its galleries of beautiful western art and jewelry, Sedona is famous for its “spiritual vortexes”, powerful and transformational energy centers that are located at specific sites throughout Sedona. Experience a soul-filled tour of the Selah CareFarm founded by clinical psychologist Dr. Joanne Cacciatore. The Farm is a haven for abused and abandoned farm animals, and offers special programs, yoga, and healing rituals for grieving families. Dr. Cacciatore is permitting a special tour for two members of Kara’s community out of respect for our work with grieving children, adults, and families, which is her area of focused clinical care. Be sure to read her book that is included with this incredible package: Bearing the Unbearable – Love, Loss, and the Heartbreaking Path of Grief. A review in the preface of the book says this: “After reading Dr. Cacciatore’s wonderful book, you will not only hold your own grief and the sadness of others more skillfully; you will also live and love more wisely.” [Dr. Jeffrey B. Rubin]
