When was the last time you felt truly seen for who you are?

As women we often lose precious bits of ourselves along the way. If you are a woman then chances are you are a caregiver. Whether in the role of wife, partner, mother, daughter, sister, friend we learn to put the needs of others before our own. If you are in a service or helping profession this is magnified even more. As women we tend to stretch ourselves to the point of mental or physical break down or burn out before we can allow ourselves to acknowledge that we desperately need a break.

Come find yourself again!

Pikes Peak Resort Woodland Park, Colorado Winter 2008

Your senses will be pampered Your spirit rejuvenated You will connect with other women Remember who you are Learn how to take this with you into your everyday life!

If caring for others at the expense of caring for yourself is what you do best, then this retreat is for you!

As women we often give so much we don’t even realize how much of ourselves we have lost in the process. Our lives become so busy taking care of others that we lose sight of the importance of taking care of ourselves. Our identities can become so wrapped up in the lives of others that we forget who the woman is that transcends all the outward trappings of our lives. When was the last time you felt truly seen for who you are? Sometimes we don’t even remember who that person is.

Discover who you are!

We will explore some of the themes that touch us deeply as women: transition, self-discovery, forgiveness, gratitude, loss & grief, compassion, letting go. Some of the work will include guided imagery and meaningful ritual. An atmosphere of mindfulness and intention will be created that will facilitate spiritual deepening, awaken possibility, and promote individual healing.

The work we do will be like breath: coming together to share our experience or an activity and then having time to ourselves for contemplation, meditation, a walk in nature, a massage, or a soak in the tub.

Each participant will have their own luxurious private room in a beautiful natural setting. You will have space and time for yourself and your spirit will be nourished. Best of all you will learn how to carry this with you into your everyday life.

“How can I make the time to go on a retreat? I’m so busy I can hardly breathe!”

You probably feel that you can’t add one more thing to your plate right now. People come away from these retreats feeling so nourished and rejuvenated they have more energy and enthusiasm than before. The retreats are purposely designed to be only two and a half days long over a weekend to make them as accessible as possible. It will feel like you’ve been on a wonderfully long vacation!

“I would feel guilty for spending so much money on myself.”

We are so accustomed to putting ourselves last it feels selfish to give ourselves a gift. Many participants felt the same way. What they found was that the money spent on the retreat went a long way. Not only did they feel exquisitely taken care of, rejuvenated, recognized and understood, they learned how to carry this with them and create it in their day to day lives The women who come on these retreats go home with a more positive attitude about life and themselves and learn how to balance caring for others with caring for themselves. The benefits of this keep multiplying and extend to your families, work environments, and everyone around you.

“I’ve never done anything like this before. How will I know if it’s for me?”

The retreats are specifically small (10-12 women) to provide the safest possible environment for the creation of trust and intimacy. I personally meet with or speak with every participant beforehand to guarantee each woman feels comfortable, knows what to expect, and to ensure the group is well balanced. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you might have.

Why a retreat just for women?

I offer individualized retreats for other groups of people as well, but women are special to me. I am a daughter, a wife, a mother, a sister, a friend. I know what it is to be lost in the worlds of those I care for. How hard it is to carve out time and treat myself well. I have learned the hard way that to care for myself is not selfish, but crucial to my well being and the well being of all the people who depend upon me. In short, I have learned to love myself and now have so much more love to give to others. My passion is to create sacred space for women to rediscover how to love themselves and experience the remarkable blessings this brings.
