Webster's defines "retreat" as "a period of retirement or seclusion, especially one devoted to spiritual contemplation away from the pressures of ordinary life".
Our hectic lifestyles create more and more stress and offer less time for inner reflection. Resulting in more and more people feeling overwhelmed, depleted, and exhausted. Follow these secrets to create a life changing retreat to recapture inner peace and recharge your batteries.

A retreat allows you time to look at your life in a new way. When you are out of your normal environment absent of normal life pressures you can look at your life with new eyes that are devoid of distraction and more connected to your inner wisdom. Retreats are not about connecting to a new religious dogma but rather finding a deeper connection to the divine within.
