Immersive Mindfulness & Wellness
Winter Retreat
Kohler, WI
2/22/24 - 2/25/24
Unplug.
Slow Down.
Do Less.
Rest.
And Be Present.
We live in a busy world, full of things to do and appointments to attend.
We are bombarded with information and sometimes we can't even hear ourselves think.
On top of our fast-paced lives, stress, worry and anxiety are on the rise, especially with all that is happening in the world.
It's so easy to feel helpless, overwhelmed, and to get caught up in the stressors and "shoulds" of life.
It can be completely exhausting.
If you're pulled to this retreat, there's a part of you that wants to live a new (more sustainable) way.
A way that feels grounded and centered with purpose and meaning.
A way that brings joy and a sense of freedom to your soul.
A way that brings you heart clarity and direction on the next right steps.
A way that helps you live in the most authentic way.
During the winter energy of cocooning inward, slowing down, and reconnecting to the self with deep presence,
I invite you to join us for this immersive mindfulness experience.
Research has shown that the practice of mindfulness can have positive effects on health and wellbeing.
At this retreat, you get to PAUSE from the day-to-day routines, and refocus on YOUR OWN wellbeing.
You will be guided and immersed in mindful living practices (from how you move and breathe to how you walk and eat). You will have the opportunity to experiment and experience different presencing techniques and see which one resonates with you.
This getaway will give you space and time to rest and nourish your mind, body and soul.
And throughout, you will be in a safe container surrounded and supported by like-minded people who are walking similar paths as you.
Together, we will reset and define what mindfulness and inner peace means for each of us, walking away with more heart clarity on how we want to truly live.
It's only from this place of inner peace, self-love and awareness can we cultivate outer peace in the world.
It starts with us, from within.
