Coming Home to Yourself:
A Women’s Renewal Retreat
August 10-12, 2018
at the Himalayan Institute,
nestled in the beautiful hills of the Poconos
952 Bethany Turnpike, Honesdale, PA 18431
We can easily lose ourselves in a world of obligations, expectations, and roles.
Who are we? What matters most to us? What are we here to do, to create? Who do we want to be? And, what gifts do we bring to the world? We push to care for others, to fulfill expectations, perhaps giving beyond our reserves, and we find ourselves feeling worn out, drained, and depleted. We know we need to find a way to nourish and care for ourselves. Retreat offers a time to replenish so that we are better able to show up to the people and responsibilities in our lives. It gives us time to honor ourselves deeply and powerfully within a circle of like-minded women. In this wonderfully relaxing and fulfilling retreat, we will: - Slow down, quiet down, and tune in to connect with our inner wisdom and guidance - Be with life as it is right now, in this moment - Have space for reflection, rest, and renewal - Cultivate a foundation of self-care, self-compassion, and self-honoring - Strengthen the ground we stand on as we discover the peace, power, and joy that is available in an authentically-lived life When we come home to ourselves, we strengthen our reserves and lean into our inner wisdom and true guidance. We are less easily rattled by outer happenings and more quickly return to balance when we are. When we come home to ourselves, we are better able to bring forth our gifts and to live a fuller expression of who we were born to be. |
Note: Each participant will receive a copy of Barb’s book,
111 Invitations: Step into the Full Richness of Life,
which will be one resource we will use during this time
of inquiry, exploration, and discovery.
Please bring a journal and pen, dress comfortably in layers,
and bring whatever else will make you comfortable during our weekend.
The schedule will allow for several hours of time
on Saturday afternoon when you are free
to deepen your connection
with yourself in your own way
(a number of suggested possibilities will be offered).
You may choose to schedule a healing session at
the PureRejuv Wellness Center,
to take a hike on the beautiful 400 acres, or enjoy a nap during this time.
Or you may want to bring along some supplies for your own
creating, drawing, writing, reading, meditating…
anything that will support you in slowing down and going within.
Weather permitting, we will have a campfire on one of our evenings.

Here’s what others have said about Barb’s retreats:
I love going to retreats because they're a way for me to get back to what's important--me. It's a time for me to leave work at work and home at home and just simply be and reconnect with myself. A chance to really listen to what my inner voice is telling me, to nurture my soul and my body with rest and renewal. It's a moment in time for me to take care of myself and to let go and enjoy the unique energy that's created when a group of beautiful like-minded women connect authentically, heart to heart. Barb creates a beautiful and safe place for me to do all of this.

I cannot tell you how wonderful my experience has been on the women's retreats I have attended with Barb! To be able to take the time for myself, in a safe place, to reconnect with my genuine self, re-energize and re-empower myself to come back out into this crazy world is a priceless gift!! I am so grateful to Barb for the work she does and the opportunities she creates for women, like me,
who need to Retreat, Regroup and then Return.
