Do you feel like you’re living in a state of constant transition?
Do you feel topsy turvy from all the change in your life -- both good and sad?
Are you sure, if you just had some space and time to catch up with yourself, you could name what you really what to do next?
Are you exhausted but can’t seem to really rest?
Are you ready for deep renewal and creative visioning?
Then come join us for a life transforming week!
Much of what we have traditionally relied upon to give us a sense of stability and even identity — career advancement, staying married, even the weather—are no longer sure things. The pace of change continues to accelerate, faster than we could have imagined just five years ago. It feels like our choices are either to run as fast as we can to stay in one place, throw up our hands in resignation or hide behind overeating, bad reality TV, and cynicism.
Maybe there’s another way?
“Jennifer Louden is a wonderful facilitator. She makes everyone feel like they are special and their opinions are valued. Her wonderful sense of humor kept our group laughing. Her insights are tremendously helpful and her exercises very fresh and original.” ~Hilda Flamholtz
Join best-selling author, life coach, creative writer and gifted facilitator Jennifer Louden and a community of like-minded women for five days of “creative yoga for the mind and spirit.” Jen has spent the last four years mapping the territory of change, and she’s discovered that often we can’t launch into what’s next because some things are missing. We need rest, peace, trust, faith, energy, ways to navigate the fog of the unknown, discerning methods, and above all, time and help deeply listening. We also need help getting out of the snarls of less than happy making stories and beliefs that can hold us back.
We will let nature, collage making and art journaling, gentle movement, heart opening practices and journaling reveal what you want more of (and less of) in your life. You will have the space and time to catch up with yourself and to name your true sources of connection so you can be sustained as you create your life. You’ll emerge renewed with a felt sense of how to navigate the next year of your life and the courage, creativity, and faith to begin to create what’s next. Prepare to laugh, cry, dance, and open to life in a whole new way.
Come experience genuine relaxation, inner stillness, re-sparked creativity, and above all, yourself!
“[The retreat]… brought me back into balance that had been seriously missing in my life. It gave me a window of hope that I can enjoy life.... I cannot say enough good about this experience… Blessings on you, Jennifer, for being such a skilled and gifted teacher. “ Maureen Arrigo
“The weekend retreat was so self satisfying and rewarding and revealing. I was so spiritually touched that I am still trying to put into words how I feel in my own mind. The most amazing thing is the sense of peace. Calmness. It's like the earth is listening to me and I to it.” Ginny Henry
