ANNUAL RETREAT<br />

This six day gathering brings together a group of TBI survivors, caregivers, neurologists,<br />

nutritionists, athletes, speakers, and yoga and meditation teachers to foster community and<br />

wellness. The retreat provides fun and supportive spaces for people to share their personal<br />

stories, engage in group activities, learn about brain health, exercise, and practice self-care<br />

through yoga, meditation, and alternative therapies, including art and music.<br />

IMPACT<br />

At our 3rd annual retreat, 50 people attended, including 21 individuals with brain injury, their<br />

siblings, healthcare providers, yoga instructors, and many LYB supporters.<br />

100 LYB supporters ran in the Vermont City Marathon, where we collectively raised $68,000.<br />
