RETREAT DESCRIPTION

The Be Brave retreat is a unique opportunity to explore your authentic self in a supportive, fun and restorative setting. For many of us, our actions don’t align with our true passions--manifesting what we really want in our lives. Within the natural beauty of Islandwood, we will identify the obstacles frustrating our best efforts and create a vision of future possibilities.

The weekend retreat includes:

• Activities designed to take you out of your daily routine

• Experiences to spark your thinking and creativity

• Time for writing and reflection; time to be with yourself

• Opportunities for intimate conversations within a supportive small group

• Yoga, hiking and meditation

• Rest and relaxation

• Nutritious organic meals from local sustainable sources

You will leave with a renewed and energized sense of yourself. And you will be connected to amazing women who will be friends long after our weekend together.

The Be Brave Retreat includes 2 nights lodging, meals, workshop materials and all activities.
