Weekend retreat dedicated to the healing arts - healing the body, mind and soul.
Join us for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Just like a day in my garden, no retreat is ever the same....and each one is just GREAT!
Attend this weekend retreat to activate your passion and awaken your dream. We'll focus on the healing energies of ultimate self-care, communication and self-expression, quiet reflection and meditation, nutritional guidance, and energy enhancement techniques.
Taking time for yourself and learning to care for yourself is a critical leadership function. Having the energy and health to pursue your dreams enables you to offer your gifts and talents to the world. The actions you take today to demonstrate your commitment to your dream will inspire others to pursue their dreams tomorrow.
Our group workshops are designed to engage the senses and experience the healing power of self-care with the creativity of art, the magic of developing friendships, and the support of a kind and loving group. There is something magical and mysterious that happens when pursuing an artistic project. As your mind focuses on the present creative energies flowing into your art project, the mind simultaneously releases its grip on the usual outside stressors that flood our day-to-day thoughts. The process of creating art induces a meditative state, incredibly powerful in its inherent healing properties. AND, you have something to keep (or wear!) as a finished product! Regardless of your assumed artistic talent - you may come to the retreat with the thought that you have little creative talent - you'll leave with the completed work of a master!
Free Time is built into the weekend retreat schedule (PDF download) for you to enjoy the peaceful and tranquil environment with nature walks through the forested trails, experiencing the Labyrinth (an ancient sacred path rediscovered as a spiritual tool for healing and transformation), attending morning and evening prayers in the chapel, reading a book beside the lake or pool, or simply gazing at the grounds while rocking on the porch. Nature has always offered us the solace and comfort we seek and need when we stop to take the time and spend it with her. Spending time outdoors can facilitate self-awareness and promote healing. Touted as one of the best prescriptions for what ails us, time spent outdoors is returned to us ten-fold with increased energy, inspiration, creativity, imagination, regeneration, restoration, renewal, and recuperation.
This is YOUR retreat designed with 2 hours of FREE TIME on Friday and Saturday to pursue what interests and calls to you. Whether you decide to sit quietly and soak up all that nature offers or physically test your skills with skeet shooting, horseback riding, kayaking or canoeing on the lake, you will be able to create the retreat that fits your unique interests. Review the Free Time activities (PDF download) to determine the possibilities for an enriching weekend. Note that some of these optional sign-ups are FREE and included in your registration fee whereas others are available at additional charges, per person. To ensure the availability of your preferred FREE TIME activities, you may sign-up for all FREE TIME activities with Jill in advance of the retreat. Sign-up time will also be provided the first morning of the retreat.
Top this all off with an EXPO of incredible exhibitors with free product demonstrations, book signings, raffles and door prizes, and you have a perfect weekend in the making!
