Start your healing journey now at a Kokolulu cancer retreat.
Kokolulu philosophically embraces all modalities of medicine in the treatment of cancer. By combining Western, Eastern and Complimentary methods, a synergy is often achieved in healing that cannot be accomplished in embracing just one or two medicinal modalities.
If you are seeking personalized care and attention in a private, sanctuary setting – our 14 day personal retreat program is designed with you in mind.
During your stay here you can expect to receive one-on-one attention with our caring and professional staff members (we have no more than two people here during our 14 day retreats). All of our therapies, programs, excursions and workshops are personalized to meet your unique needs and situation.
The 14 day healing intensive - Healing From Cancer retreat gives you the time you’ll need to relax, get oriented and better prepared for your healing journey and transformation. Except during group retreats, Kokolulu Cancer Retreats in Hawaii is available to you any time of year.
Lodging and specially prepared meals are provided (most of the food comes from our organic farm or other farms in our area). We ascribe to and practice the philosophy "Food As Medicine" - Is what you eat contributing to your wellness or your disease? We will share with you what foods are beneficial to you, how to shop for them, and how to prepare them.
We also encourage participants to bring a friend or family support member to accompany them. Click here for details.
Our cancer retreats offer you empathy and support to learn and heal in professionally led workshops that include sessions such as:
• Using your cancer diagnosis as an event to redesign your life
• Food As Medicine - is what your eating contributing to your wellness or your disease
• Personal healing rituals and practices
• Setting the intention to heal
• Letting go of life-negating patterns
• The power of gratitude

• Living an authentic life- What is it for me?
• Relationships - Food for life
• Your illness as a messenger
