Meet the Hearts Behind the Retreat: Sherry & Robert

At Journey Home Creative Healing Retreat, we believe that healing and creativity go hand in hand—and that the right people make all the difference in creating a space where transformation can truly happen.

We’d love to introduce you to the heart and soul of the retreat: Sherry and Robert Christiani. Partners in life and in purpose, they bring a rare blend of warmth, wisdom, and creative energy to every guest experience.

Meet Sherry Lynn

Retreat Host | Energy Practitioner | Creator of Calm Spaces

Sherry is one of those people who just knows how to make others feel at home. Whether it’s her intuitive approach to healing or her talent for creating beautiful, nourishing meals, Sherry’s presence is both grounding and uplifting.

With training in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Reality Therapy/Choice Theory, she brings a deep understanding of human behaviour and communication to her work. She’s also a certified practitioner of Reiki, Therapeutic Touch, and Access Consciousness Bars—all of which she offers as part of the healing retreat experience.

Sherry’s background includes:

* 8years as a school-age daycare director

* 12 years running a family daycare

* Lifelong experience in event planning and thoughtful care

This unique mix of professional expertise and heartfelt hospitality means she’s not only an energy healer, but also an exceptional host. She sees the details that others miss and ensures everything flows with grace.

Exciting news! Sherry has just published her first poetry book!

* The poetry book "I Ponder as I Wander" is a collection of poems inspired by life and the land and creatures that call Journey Home, home!

* The cookbook—a reflection of her love for nurturing others through wholesome, home-cooked food. (Contact Sherry to get your copy!)

Come in, take a breath, and let Sherry help you create the perfect retreat package—for yourself or your group.

 Meet Robert Christiani

Co-Owner | Artist in Residence | Shamanic Energy Practitioner

Robert brings, the skill of a teacher, the soul of an artist and the heart of a healer to everything he does.

With Bachelor of Fine Arts and Bachelor of Education degrees from Queen’s University, Robert began his career as both a visual artist and recreation coordinator in healthcare. His deep belief in the healing power of creativity has guided him ever since.

Today, as the Artist in Residence at Journey Home, Robert merges his artistic talents with his training in shamanic energy medicine through the Four Winds Society. His sessions blend sacred healing practices with creative coaching—helping guests uncover their inner stories, awaken their creative spirit, and experience profound personal growth.

Through one-on-one sessions, guided creative conversations, and energy work like the Illumination Process, Robert helps guests tap into something deeper: the part of themselves that may have been quieted by the demands of daily life.

A Space Held With Heart

Together, Sherry and Robert have created more than just a retreat—they’ve created a homecoming. A place where creativity, healing, and rest live side by side. Whether you’re coming for a private healing session, a weekend creative reset, or a full weeklong artistic residency, you’ll feel the care and intention that defines everything they offer.

Are you ready to reconnect with your creative self, rediscover your energy, or simply rest in a space that feels like home?
