RETREATS

The word vacation seems to be something that we used to do.

 And yet our bodies are screaming louder and louder "give me a rest"

Imagine right now, walking on the beach, feeling the warm sand in your toes, or watching a sunset while sipping tea with other women and journaling powerful thoughts.   Try to remember what it feels like to be by yourself, alone, with your own thoughts.  It's easy to forget that you even have a voice of your own because it gets so drowned out by the demands of everyday life.  A retreat helps remind you that you are a powerful and vibrant woman, a woman of worth and power.  

I invite you to go on a retreat with me.  Let this be a very small investment into your mental health and physical well-being.  Please contact me with any thoughts or questions. 

Blessings abound

SUNSET TEA PARTY  RETREAT
Lido Beach, Florida
August 20, 2011
6:00 pm - 9:30 pm
$39

Please join me for a relaxing and invigorating

time at the Beach

Treat yourself to this beautiful Tea Party by the Sea.  Remember how you loved having tea parties when you were a little girl.  This is THAT party and more.  This mini retreat is anything but mini.  Within just  a few hours you can feel yourself breathe again.  This is my most requested retreat.

Sip your tea from a beautiful china tea cup, while nibbling on a scone or cupcake, and watch the sunset.  Bring your journal as Carolyn gently guides you through small writing assignments.  If you don't like to journal, no worries, enjoy the walk and thoughts in your head.   The evening will open with a group time, and end with a group discussion over candlelight.

This retreat includes a beautiful sunset tea, complete with scones, cupcakes, linens, candles, and lovely china tea cups and saucers. You will be given the time to be alone, and walk.  This is a beautiful area that allows you to also walk a trail that leads through pines and ends up at the beach.

There are bathroom facilities available. 

Bring a lawn chair if you like or a blanket.

Everything else is included.

WRITING A MISSION STATEMENT

for YOUR LIFE

September 10, 2011

9:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.

Carolyn's Home

Sarasota, FL

$99 
Lunch is included

(This retreat is limited to the first 6)

Do you ever get frustrated because you feel like you don't know what your "purpose" is.  This retreat will help broaden your understanding of purpose.  Purpose isn't about what our "vocation" is.  It's really more about who we are, and what gifts we bring to the world.  Instead of always trying to figure out what you are supposed to "do" with your life, Carolyn will facilitate this powerful small group to write a mission statement for your life.  Who are you?  What are you about?  What is the GIFT of YOU that you bring to the world.  

Instead of seeing your purpose as something vocational, Carolyn will stretch you to see that YOU ARE  the gift you offer. 

Through the use of collage work, journaling activities, and group involvement, each participant will come away with her own Mission Statement for Life.

What to Bring:

Your own journal, warm fuzzy socks to wear, and if you have a favorite pillow or blanket to cozy up to while you write, bring it along as well.  Wear comfortable clothing.  Also, if you have any old magazines laying around, please bring them.  But, do know that they will be used to be cut up.

RETREATS ARE MEDICINE FOR THE SOUL

If you think that going on a retreat for yourself is selfish, you need to think again. I believe retreats are healing for the soul, as medicine is healing for the body. They are not an option, they are necessary.

We live in the most unbelievable times, almost impossible times. Our energy is being zapped every minute. Time is pulling us, work is tugging, babies are crying, our bodies are aching, deadlines are waiting, the world is screaming unrest, our need to have it all feels overwhelming and everyone wants a piece of us. It exhausts me just writing about all of our demands.

As women I really believe that we've been given a lot of lies and pressures. We've been told that WE CAN have it all. Truth is we CAN'T. I am sorry if that is disappointing to most of you, but I'm talking TRUTH. We've been told we can have a career, have children, have a great marriage, great sex, great body, and enjoy our life if we want it badly enough. We seriously do not have enough time in the day to do all of it. Choices get made, and we are usually the ones that suffer from the aftermath.

I don't have the answer for you on how to lighten the load. But I do have the answer for some relief, and for a way to get your head cleared a bit, your body rested , and to get some Hope back into your weary soul. GO ON A RETREAT.

My retreats are for women who have recognized their need for inspiration and rest. Retreats can range from 3 hours to 3 days. There are a variety of retreats to choose from. You can also design your own personal custom retreat, for yourself or for you and your friends.

All my retreats include journaling, alone time, group activity, and TEA TIME. If you have not been on a retreat you really are missing out. The positive feedback I get from women who have returned from their retreat is truly overwhelming.

You owe it to yourself to take time out for YOU. Clear your Mind. Renew your Body. Refresh your Soul.
