Start your healing journey now at a Kokolulu cancer retreat.

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). We ascribe to and practice the philosophy "Food As Medicine" - we encourage you to view the video "Can we eat to starve cancer?”).

We also encourage participants to bring a friend or family support member to accompany them. Click here for details.
