Self-Compassion Retreats at Sharpham Trust

The generosity of our donors and subscribers created a 'life-raft' for a woman whose life was being affected enormously by burnout.

The retreatant agreed to share her video testimony - and her joy - of being offered a bursary space to attend our mindfulness retreats for burnout 

I wanted to pass on my thanks to you and those that advocate for the bursary programme. Attending the retreat has been a life raft for me.

Prior to coming to Sharpham, I was at breaking point and starting to feel as though I was going under. Leaving Sharpham yesterday I felt as though I was being resuscitated and I was coming back to life.

I have left having a path to move forward on and tools I can use in my everyday life. Please pass on my thanks to those that created this bursary fund...as they have saved a life by allowing me to take part in this
