Savvy Savory Self-Care Retreat
There is pure magic that happens when women gather together on a personal growth retreat. Imagine more joy, renewed energy and clarity, and fun!
The Spring '08 Savvy Savory Self-Care Retreat was AMAZING!
What do past participants have to say?
It’s hard to imagine how I could have and hold in my heart the love, stillness, peace, and affirmation I received over the weekend. I can only hope to be able to return some of that good love and energy to others. Eve McClennen
I came looking for a retreat experience from
a fellow coach. I left with a new sense of clarity about my inner self and how that affects everything in my life – health, relationships, career, home. What a beautiful gift!
Sharon Hayes
This weekend was one of the most loving gifts I’ve ever given to myself.
Liza Tapia Vaughan
Much more than I could have even imagined!
Marvelously organized and planned. So very beneficial at many levels. Can’t
wait until the next one! Highly recommended! – Elizabeth Bowers
It isn’t often that I am able to just relax and
let it down with other women, but your retreat made it so easy to do just that!
Thank you for the opportunity to share the time with other women who are making
self-care a priority in their lives, too! – Heidi Stewart
I needed it, loved it and grew from it. I was
almost magical how much insight I gained from the first hour on! – Sarah
Huff
These retreats / workshops have helped
to fill a
void in my life – one of self-care. As the Director of a Spiritual School, I
have very little time to do anything truly special just for ME. This retreat
reconnects me with me, and helps me to find my way home again. – Rev. Deborah
Steen Ross
The
greatest gift I took away from our self-care retreat was not only the
ability to speak with a strong, confident voice but the reminder of how
important it is to listen to my own voice from within.
- Michele Crowdrey, Canada
Such an expansive experience shared with an awesome
circle of endlessly powerful women. Insight, balance, inspiration,
energy, richness, the presence of now, release, mirror, trust, smiles,
wisdom, breath - all flowing.
- Karen Dacey, NC
Fabulous retreat - very nurturing and so beautifully and thoughtfully presented.
- Beverly Moore, NC
