Child Mind Maui retreat: Healing After the Loss of a Child

A Six-Day Immersion into Love, Healing & Your Ongoing Relationship with Your Child in Spirit

Maui • March 7–13, 2027

Child Mind has been created with great care by Nicole who has lived, and continues to live the loss of her son Avery.  Through this experience she has found  incredible insights, methods & inspiration she would like to share with you. This retreat is unlike any other. It is not simply about healing grief. It is about discovering that your relationship with your child has never ended. Together, over six transformative days on the beautiful island of Maui, we will explore how to gently shift our awareness from loss toward living relationship—one built on love, presence, consciousness, and the unmistakable language of Spirit.

While we never fully ‘heal’ from the loss of a child, it can transform into a beautiful ongoing relationship. It can become an ongoing celebration of our continued connection and not a lifelong grieving process that sees no end.  I have experienced the loss of my son and found a way to transform this grief into an expansive experience and I hope to share this  possibility with you. You can,  in your unique way,  evolve in your own relationship with your child, while you are seemingly separated from each other in body.  You can discover the existence of your child in the afterlife and bridge the gap between here and there.  This is not a replacement or a miracle cure.  It is a real, practical, yet etheric approach to life, energy, the truth of our reality on earth, our continued existence and survival after death, and so much more. This is a life changing week, and ready or not….you were born ready…you just may not know it yet.

This is not a mediumship training workshop but you will be introduced to the process of mediumship and learn quite alot about it, as well as experience it for yourself . Depending on the group and your own desire to be engrossed in this connection, you may find yourself experiencing personal mediumship with your child and even other loved ones in spirit throughout the week and ongoing after the retreat.    Child Mind  is a deeply experiential journey designed specifically for bereaved parents who wish to feel closer to their child, recognize their ongoing presence, and develop an authentic, personal relationship that continues to grow for the rest of their lives. This is done thru mediumship, blending the energy of souls, communion & more.  I will be teaching you mediumship all along the week and reading for you all often, however it is not soley based in this modality….it is also encompassing ‘us’ as parents of a child in spirit, the things we go thru and how we can heal, strengthen, find purpose and move forward with our child nearby in another dimension. You will know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that your child continues to exist nearby in another dimension…because you will spend the week building that connection and experiencing the signs and signals along the way.

Whether your loss of your child is recent or has been many years past, we all yearn for the same connection to our child, a reconnection to their essence and a feeling of reunion.  This week is designed to bring you that experience in a way that you can keep with you, work with ongoing, and build into a bigger part of your life and consciousness, bringing hope, healing, happiness and true evolution & joy.

What You Will Discover

Your Child Has Never Left You

One of the greatest shifts available after loss is realizing that death changes form—but is not the end of  relationship. Throughout the retreat, you will begin to recognize that your child’s love continues to surround you, guide you, and participate in your life in meaningful ways.

Rather than searching outside yourself, you will learn to recognize what is already  happening around you & thru you every day.  You will become closer to their experience and less hindered from realizing the world they now reside in, how close it is to ours, and how we can bridge that gap.

You will be taken care of the entire week so you can focus on this new reality as it unfolds for you and feel deeper into the essence of the connection each day.  The busyness of regular life can make it difficult to make and build these connections but in this week together you will have all the support, time, etheric and angelic help needed to begin to soften and connect into these possibilities that are very real and await you… if you so chose.

Learning the Language of Spirit

Spirit has its own beautiful language.

It speaks through feelings, intuition, dreams, music, memories, synchronicities, nature, symbols, signs,  timing, energy, and moments that seem impossible to explain but impossible to ignore.

You will learn how to notice these experiences with greater confidence, understand why they occur, and discover how your own child uniquely communicates with you.

Every relationship develops its own vocabulary.

Together, you and your child will begin creating yours.

Recognizing the Signs They Send

Many parents wonder…

“Was that really them?”

Throughout the week you will begin distinguishing coincidence from meaningful connection.

You will become more aware of recurring symbols, numbers, songs, animals, scents, dreams, inner knowing, emotional impressions, and subtle moments that often carry profound meaning.

As your awareness expands, so does your confidence.

Eventually you stop asking if they are with you…

…because you know.

Raising Your Own Vibration

Spirit does not ask us to become someone different.

Instead, they gently invite us into greater peace, presence, joy, love and openness.

Throughout the retreat we will explore practical ways of becoming calmer, more grounded and more available to these beautiful connections.

As your nervous system settles and your awareness expands, you naturally begin meeting your child halfway.

Connection becomes easier.

Not because they moved closer…

…but because you became more available.

Meeting in the Middle

One of the most beautiful understandings is that communication is a shared experience.

Your child reaches toward you.

You learn how to reach toward them.

Somewhere in the middle…

love becomes tangible.

Many parents describe sensing their child’s presence almost physically—feeling them beside them, around them, laughing with them, comforting them, celebrating life with them.  Others see, hear or feel fleeting signs, awareness in the clouds, an emotional upliftment as the continued relationship becomes more palpable and in your awareness. Others have connection mainly through dreams and memories but it is just as real once we accept they are still alive in another realm of existence.

Not imagination.  This is the power of Love, our intertwined existence & evolution.

Relationship.

Experiencing Their Essence

Every soul carries a recognizable energetic signature.

Their humour.

Their personality.

Their warmth.

Their wisdom.

Their unique way of loving you.

As your awareness develops, you begin recognizing not simply signs…

…but them.

Their unmistakable presence becomes something you feel deeply within your own heart, soul and body.  You can find comfort in the blending of souls of you and your child, as you find yourself being ‘more like them’ as your consciousness’ become one, as is intended, and you become aware of this ability and reality/

For many parents this becomes one of the most healing experiences of their lives.

Building Your Personal Connection Practice

No two children communicate exactly the same way.

No two parents receive exactly the same way.

During the retreat you will discover the methods that naturally work for you.

Perhaps you feel.

Perhaps you know.

Perhaps you dream.

Perhaps you hear.

Perhaps you simply become aware.

Whatever your doorway into Spirit may be, we will help you strengthen it so that it becomes a trusted part of your everyday life. There are many other methods Nicole will teach you to recognize the closeness of your child and to begin to interact with them joyfully as you realize and recognize their presence in your life.  These ways and means are a part of mediumship.  This is a natural human faculty that the majority of people can learn and develop to varying degrees themselves.  Most people can find their own link to the spirit of their loved ones in fleeting ways.  This week is designed to give you solid methods to work with as well as Nicole’s assistance in making it work for you.  You will receive a workbook with an outline of our week and reminders in writing of all the things you are taught so you have it for later.  It is overwhelming at times and it is important to have it recorded so you can revisit it….and also so you don’t need to worry all week about remembering everything I teach you- you will have the workbook to refer to, to take notes alongside certain experiences, record, journal, etc.

Becoming a Team Again

Perhaps one of the most extraordinary discoveries is realizing that your child is still participating in your life.

They celebrate your victories.

Comfort your sorrows.

Influence your growth.

Open unexpected doors.

Guide your intuition.

Inspire your creativity.

Protect what matters.

Encourage you to continue living fully.

You are still parenting in many ways.

And they continue loving you in ways that often become even more expansive than before.

Together…

you become a team again.

Discovering Who They Are Becoming

Spirit continues evolving.

Your child continues growing.

Learning.

Serving.

Exploring.

Expanding into the fullness of who they truly are.

During the retreat we will explore how understanding their own continued evolution often brings tremendous peace and hope to grieving parents.

Many discover that watching their child’s continued growth becomes a beautiful part of their own spiritual journey.

Co-Creating Your Life Together

The relationship doesn’t remain static.

It evolves.

Your child may inspire new passions.  Lead you toward meaningful work.  Help you notice beauty & simplicity again.

Support your family. Encourage acts of kindness & Guide decisions.

Inspire courage & bring laughter back into your life.

You begin living life together—not in the same physical world, but in one shared field of love and consciousness.

Becoming More Spirit Yourself

As your connection with your child deepens, something equally beautiful begins happening.

You reconnect with yourself.

Not simply your grieving self.

But your eternal self.

The part of you that existed before this lifetime and will continue beyond it.

Your own Divine nature.

Your Higher Self.

Your soul.

Many parents discover they are not only finding their child…

They are remembering themselves.

Mediumship as a Gift of Healing

Nicole will offer evidential mediumship throughout the retreat, bringing messages of hope, love and reassurance from Spirit.

These experiences are not intended to replace your own relationship with your child.

They are designed to strengthen it.

To demonstrate what is possible.

To open hearts.

To build confidence.

And to gently encourage every parent toward discovering their own ongoing connection.

Healing Together

Healing rarely happens in isolation.

There is something profoundly comforting about sitting beside people who simply understand.

No explanations. No pretending. No timelines.

Only compassion, Laughter, Tears,  Stories & Hope.

Community becomes part of the medicine.

A Spiritual Holiday

Imagine spending six unforgettable days surrounded by Maui’s extraordinary beauty.  With a medium who understands, has experienced this loss and can help connect you to your child who is alongside us the whole time! And with a group of people who all share a child loss and are open and willing to learn, experience & heal.

Sacred beaches.  Gentle ocean breezes. Sunsets & Nature.

Meaningful conversations, Island adventures & Visits with inspiring spiritual people.  Healing experiences, island style, designed exactly for us.

Moments of silence & Moments of laughter.  Special time to commune and express with your child.

Moments where your child feels closer than ever before.

This is more than a retreat. It is an education in the afterlife, where your child now resides.

It is a spiritual holiday. Not only with one another…

…but with all of our beautiful children in Spirit.

We will visit special sites, take in the Hawaiian culture & afterlife beliefs & do some special excursions.

Meals will be delicious & you will fall asleep happy, tired, relaxed and with the feel of your child palpably in your consciousness, making it all so much easier to accept.

We cannot bring our children back to life but we can become aware of their continued existence & participation in our lives.  They too are on this special holiday with you.

The Greatest Gift

Nothing can take this relationship away from you.

Once you discover your own connection…it belongs to you forever.

Not because someone else told you.  Not because someone gave it to you.

But because together—you and your child—created it.

While every parent experiences Spirit differently, every parent leaves with a deeper awareness that their child’s life continues, their love continues, and their relationship continues.

You will return home more grounded. More peaceful & More spiritually aware.

More rooted in yourself & More deeply connected to your own Divine nature.

And with an enduring knowing & experience that your beautiful child walks beside you…

every single step of the way.

Love never dies. Relationships never end. They simply evolve into something even greater than we imagined.
