THE FUTURE; Good Grief Support available NZ wide
Anam Cara Care Centre - Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Healing - Good Grief Support when needed most, after the death of your loved one to suicide and throughout the years to come.
The Master Plan for Anam Cara Care Centre (ACCC), formed over many years will have four stages of development.
Stage 1 by mid year 2014
Stage 2 by mid year 2018
Stage 3 by end year 2018
Stage 4 by end year 2020
When all stages of this Master Plan are complete the Anam Cara Care Charitable Trust will be supporting those bereaved by suicide (but not limited to) with Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Healing, in every province of New Zealand, for every conceivable loss and grief experience of the human condition.
There will be no cost for this service or the Grief Retreat where those needing Heart & Soul support may stay with no financial burden on them to do so.
STAGE 1 -
The first stage of this Master Plan offering Anam Cara Care Centre- Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Good Grief Support - available by appointment from July 2014 as an 'out-service' in the privacy and comfort of your own home.

There is facility for people to 'pay it forward' right now, by donating what they can for Anam Cara Care Centre LOFT 'seeding' Reverie Harps into every Province of NZ and to provide heart and soul support for anyone suffering grief bereaved by by suicide, regardless of their financial
situation OR to sponsor the purchase 'per string' of a Reverie Harp to be donated to an institution / facility of their choice where healing of Heart & Soul will make a huge difference in the lives of those in care.
Health and well-being should not be just for those fortunate enough to earn decent income or be financially independent by birth. Although Anam Cara Care Centre Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Healing provides support free of charge there are costs involved to do so.
If you can help support this program your generosity will be rewarded as Patron of the Trust.

STAGE 2 -
The 2nd stage of this Master Plan is establishing Anam Cara Care Charitable Trust.
The trust will ensure those bereaved by suicide (but not limited to) may receive Anam Cara Care - Good Grief Support when they need it most, after the death of their loved one and throughout the years to come, with no cost to them for the service.
ACCC is seeking a mentor to help achieve this stage of the Master Plan. If you can assist please make contact and discuss how you can help.
Gwynna believes Anam Cara Care Charitable Trust - Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Healing - Good Grief Support will change lives and help save lives.
There is potential to extend this service of care as it develops, but first steps first.
STAGE 3 -
The 3rd stage of the Master Plan, is to establish the service of Anam Cara Care Centre Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Healing in each of the 16 provinces of New Zealand.
Reverie Harp's in the Provinces to date:
check out 'Chesney' and see how the 'Leap Of Faith Tour - On A Wing & A Prayer' is taking shape
The 3rd stage will involve Gwynna touring New Zealand: Planting the seed or 'seeding' ;
- to promote & find folks to help establish ACCC Charitable Trust
- to promote establishing ACCC Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Healing service in each of the 16 provinces of New Zealand
- to hold public meetings in many places from 'here to there &
everywhere' sowing the seeds of what ACCC - Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Healing - Good Grief Support is and benefits of
- to find existing therapists whose heart strumbs at the thought of playing Reverie Harp in their own province supporting people via the outreach of ACCC service.
- to find existing musicians who want to extend their musical experience, using the Reverie Harp in their own province supporting people via the outreach of ACCC Reverie Harp Heart & Soul healing service.
- to attend and present ACCC Reverie Harp Heart & Soul Healing at Festivals of those interested in living and dying consciously.
STAGE 4 -
The 4th stage of this Master Plan is to find property suitable for the Anam Cara Care
Charitable Trust - Grief Retreat in each province. This property would accommodate in particular (but not limited to) those
bereaved by suicide. Ideally there will be
facility for a therapy room, a minimum of five bedrooms, garden grounds
with hidden rooms for quiet contemplation and a labyrinth in an
environment
conducive to healing.
It also requires a sound proof 'screaming room' ..... screaming under strict guidelines can be quite beneficial to one's sanity, especially in traumatic grief experience. We need to have a safe space to do that without drawing the unwanted attention of well meaning family, friends, neighbours and even the Police, as has have experienced !! That was interesting.
The intention of this property is to allow healing space for those grieving loss of a loved one to suicide (but not limited to). To allow them to stop their world and get off for a period of time of perhaps 3 days / nights or 7 days / nights, however long they need, to focus upon what has just happened in their life. To be cocooned in a cradle of care and healing sounds without cost to them at this time.
I believe such care will assist people in numerous ways to begin to come to terms with their suddenly changed lives, to understand they will survive this unthinkable grief and allow them a way to once again face life with some hope. It is the new paradigm of holistic care.
For those experiencing complicated grief it will be an oasis to consciously change their circumstance of living and give them skills and hope to re-enter their world and return to whole-hearted wellness.

This Retreat
property may be anywhere in NZ. It may be in Taranaki .... it may be
in the Tasman .... it may be in Hawkes Bay or it may be in Hamilton. The intention is to have such a Grief Retreat in every Province of New Zealand. Eventually.
I
trust the right property will become available in due course and be
apparent at the right time in every Province of Aotearoa.
It may already be waiting to begin life
anew. This photo above is uploaded, tongue in cheek!!
I
see this 'house' as being incredibly supported and deeply rooted into
the earth and that is how I envisage the Anam Cara Care Charitable Trust
Retreat in every Province of our great land.
FOOTNOTE: The Taranaki Retreat - A Place to Breath - is now open on Hurford Road, New Plymouth, Taranaki, New Zealand. It is the 1st Province in NZ to have a Grief Retreat.

Created over a three year period by Jamie Allen (was Dean of St, Mary's Cathedral) and his wife Suzy with teams of volunteers and the Taranaki Retreat Trust they are truly inspirational.
