“Retreats are essential - to our minds, bodies, spirits….I could never lay my hands on exactly why self care was so important.

Until I took a retreat.

And met my authentic self. Only then was I able to grasp that self care helps me to make daily choices that affirm me, thus allowing me to contact, hear and eventually live from my truest self…..I am more and more able to choose a self referenced life: looking inside of myself to see what I think, feel and need, then looking outside of myself to see what others thinking, feel and need, and then bringing the two together. This may seem like common sense, but for millions of women, including myself, it is nothing short of a revolutionary act.”
