Take some time out for a retreat
Last year around this time, I blogged about Jen Louden’s Virtual Retreat. It was a weekend event where participants got to hear interviews with a variety of self-help folks to help them nurture themselves.
I signed up and it was great — and it was also a big hit. So Jen’s back with the 2010 Virtual Retreat and a whole new line-up of folks. This year’s theme is “Refresh, Reawaken, & Rediscover Who You are in Ways that Truly Work.” The virtual retreat takes place February 12 to 14.
Here’s what I love about this retreat, or really any retreat. I like the idea that you’re taking time away from real life, from daily pressure, from ordinary responsibilities to focus on something important. And what’s more important than focusing on your well being?
The fee for the two and a half days of the retreat is just $108. Since it’s Valentine’s Day weekend, Jen is offering a couple’s special. You and your special someone can enroll together for $162. (You don’t have to be related to the other person to take advantage of the sweetheart deal.) That covers 12 different speakers, including recordings and transcripts.
Topics (and session hosts) include:
- Step into Magic: Reclaiming the extraordinary in each gracefully simple, amazingly mundane, and fantastically ordinary day (hosted by Patti Digh)
- Opening To The Sacred (hosted by Hiro Boga and Fabeku Fatunmise)
- Embracing Crazy (hosted by Gail Goodwin)
- Tenderly and Fiercely Claim your Inner Authority (hosted by Camille Maurine)
- How to Achieve Time Mastery for Maximum Productivity and Fulfillment (hosted by Bill Baren)
- Trusting Your Loving Self (hosted by Tama J. Kieves)
- Making a Story of Your Essential Goodness (hosted by Christina Baldwin)
- Change your Chi — Change your Life! (hosted by Stephanie McWilliams)
- Em“BODY” The Life of Your Dreams (hosted by Jennifer Jimenez)
- Trust your Inner Genius: Using the Tools of Improv Comedy in Every Day Life (hosted by Katie Goodman)
- Summon Your Singular Genius: Discover the Unmatched Greatness that Sets YOUR Purpose Apart & Your Profits Soaring (hosted by Julie Ann Turner)
If these topics and speakers interest you, this might be the perfect way to take care of yourself over Valentine’s weekend. You can get complete deals the 2010 Virtual Retreat webpage. The $108 price is the early-bird price. It goes up on February 5.
