Stop Fighting and Make Love


Are you sick and tired of drama? Want to run away? Did your role models for relationship teach you to retreat and close your heart. These habits feel normal yet push love away, and often end in divorce. Our couples retreats empower you with tools for communication, teach you how to let go of emotional hurt and pain, and assist each partner to open their heart and share their love. Through the end of the year each retreat includes a copy of award winning Love's Secret Live Your Life In Love.


Follow these tips from Love's Secret to stop fighting and make love.

1.Fighting over the same issues? Keep shutting down and stuffing your feelings? This habit results in an explosion of hurtful words and pushing each other away. Stop. Take a deep breath and hold a vision of the thing you love most about your mate.

2. EFT or Emotional Freedom empowers you with tools to heal your past hurt and trauma and stop toxic fighting patterns. Realize, that each of you are reacting from past hurt and trauma, and never from what is or has happened in the present moment. Until you heal the old stuck hurt and trauma, it will continue to be brought to the surface to be healed and released. Remind yourself that love and connection are your intention and let the old hurt go.

3. Agree on a word that can be used by both partners as a signal to stop the fight. Make an agreement to honor each other and your love by stopping the argument when the word is said by either partner. This word must have meaning for both of you. Words used by previous couples include: love, partnership, agreement, commitment, healing, what is important, the past is over, freedom, I choose love. You can also decide on a symbol of love and unity ie: a Dove, heart, a pink bubble of light. When you feel yourself stuck in reaction say the word and hold the symbol in your mind and breath.

4. If you become so triggered that you can't keep yourself from reacting; you are hitting a core survival issue. When this occurs you might need help to get unstuck. Find someone who has experience working with couples and EFT and give them a call to either work in person, or over the phone.

Our Sedona Retreats offer tools for healing your core issues with EFT or Emotional Freedom Technique. I also work with clients throughout the world by phone and have great results with couples issues, core issues, stop smoking and weight loss. Gift yourself lasting love, invest in a couples retreat and begin 2012 with renewed love a couples retreat is a gift of lasting love.

Addicted to Clutter? Retreat and reset your normal


A retreat away from your normal environment can help you reset what feels normal. According to Denver Post Clutter can be caused by many different influences. For me I grew up in an environment where stress, chaos, and clutter felt normal. Here are the new habits that I found that helped me reset my normal feeling of clutter to organized and relaxed.

Follow these three tips to shift your life from clutter and chaos to inner peace and happiness.

1. Clutter comes from a habit of self sabotage and a feeling of holding on. Practice Yoga at least three times per week. Yoga is a great way to expand your mind, body, and spirit. Yoga creates inner strength to break free from patterns and habits; creating a calm clear mind.

2. Meditation has been proven to shift your mind and create new thought patterns. Most of our retreat guests have a challenge slowing their mind down from the hectic pace of their life. The best way to slow the mind down is to practice breath awareness. As you observe your breath, just watch your thoughts. Become the witness and slowly you will notice your thoughts becoming more peaceful. One of the most powerful and popular meditations that we teach is the "inner smile" meditation. Find a peaceful place in nature or in your home. Play some relaxing music and hold the intention to let go. As you smile and send the love that you give so freely to others to yourself you will feel a beautiful glow growing inside. The "inner smile" has been proven to change your brain chemistry. As you clear away the cobwebs of "inner judgement", "inner anger" and "inner criticism" you will find it easier to change your outer environment.

3. Include something in your day that you love. If you can, take a walk in nature and allow yourself to slow down and welcome peace into your life. If you love dancing this is a great way to release stress. Listen to your inner urges they will guide you to peace.

Retreat and Heal is a small boutique retreat specializing in personalized retreats that cater to you and your needs. Fall is a beautiful time to pamper yourself and declutter your life. Gift yourself a retreat to reset your normal to inner peace and happiness; you deserve to live your life in love.

Stuck in Drama and Chaos? Retreat In Nature To Rewrite Your Story

Is your inner guidance system always pointing you upstream toward challenges? Were you conditioned to believe that life is a challenge? If your environment was filled with chaos and struggle as a child chances are that this is what has become your normal.

Our retreat guests often arrive at the end of their emotional rope. They often feel hopeless to change their life drama. Here are some tips to change your old story and write a new one full of happiness and love.

1. Take a yoga class that helps you navigate your inner world. Yoga helps you to stretch your old limits and begin to feel comfortable being outside your self imposed box. Just because your have become accustomed to trauma and drama doesn't mean you need to stay there. Break free and stretch into happiness, joy and success.

2. Take time to learn to clear your mind. A cluttered mind is a chaotic mind. Even though it may feel normal it is difficult to make clear decisions based on what you want and deserve in a cluttered mind. Until you break free from old habits you will continue to recreate the same habits and patterns of trauma/drama over and over. You deserve to be free so take time to develop a clear and calm mind. Take the reigns back from old habits created in your childhood.

3. Retreat in Nature and reconnect to inner peace. Often life seems so busy that it feels normal to go on auto-pilot. Auto-Pilot recreates the same patterns and dramas over and over. In our retreats this is the number one cause of unhappiness and depression. Most of our guests soon feel overwhelmed, confused and hopeless to change their drama. Stop and and take a break in nature. Nature is healing and offers time to listen inside for inner guidance.

Our retreats empower you with tools to change your emotional set points from drama and pain to inner peace and feeling empowered. Through EFT, Reiki, Inner Child healing, Time Line Therapy, Hypnotherapy and healing massage we gently empower you to row your boat down stream and create habits that support a happy successful life. Retreat with us and create the habit of happiness.

Is Fear Keeping You Stuck?

Are you attracting what you want in your life?The law of attraction hasn't always brought me what I wanted. Or at least it wasn't my dreams it seemed to bring. Instead my worst night mares and fears appeared until I learned to clear away the fears that blocked my dreams. I knew there was more to life than surviving, but I didn't know how to apply my talents and gifts to live my life purpose. Here are the steps I took to clear my fears and beliefs, that blocked my purpose, and passion.

1. The first and most powerful step is to get clear on where you are. I had a mantra (short phrase I repeated to myself) who am I, where am I, and what is my purpose here? I did this for several months throughout my day. This serves two purposes. First it keeps your "inner critic" quiet and takes your inner talk off "auto-pilot." It also keeps you focused on your intention to find your purpose.

2. Create times to breath consciously and listen inside. This means that you must create the ability to be still. For most of us in this hurry-worry world this is our biggest challenge. Our mind is racing from appointment to appointment, and focusing on what is next on our calendar. Two secrets to finding your purpose, passion, and taking charge of your power, is your breath and a quiet mind.

3. Keep focused on your intention. In rushing through life it is easy to loose focus and thus loose your connection to the Divine. When we maintain our connection to our spiritual essence, we are connected to our purpose, passion, and our power. Schedule time into your calendar for spiritual renewal. A spiritual retreat once a month is a great source to renew your body, mind and spirit, and master the law of attraction.

Need clarity to find your purpose, and master the law of attraction? I invite you to down load our life mastery quiz and empower yourself with clarity. Next set aside time for 21 days and commit to bringing clarity to your life.

When you feel stuck and can't make yourself anymore "inner work", it might mean that you need some gentle help. We offer a safe place to retreat and heal.

Retreat to Release Dis-Ease

Health, healing, happiness, and spiritual growth are the focus for our retreats. Your journey starts with wanting to get healthy. Suffering from high blood pressure? Insomnia? Overweight? The journey to health begins with the desire and commitment to change bad habits that have created dis-Ease with healthy habits.

1. What is Dis-Ease? Dis-Ease shows up as headaches, tight shoulders and neck, low back pain, and can become chronic and create serious dis-ease symptoms. The more serious dis-ease shows up as auto-immune dis-ease, high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis and heart attach or heart dis-ease. Another very common dis-ease is depression which comes from stuffing frustration and anger.

2. Ways to release dis-ease? EFT also known as Emotional Freedom Technique is performed by tapping on energy meridians that traverse the body. The tapping acts to move and rid the body of uncompleted emotional energy that become major contributors to dis-ease.

3. What symptoms can you use EFT to release? EFT has been used to release energy and symptoms associated with low back pain, headaches, and even more chronic dis-ease. It can be learned and applied for self treatment or you can receive a treatment from a practitioner. Both can be equally effective. EFT can also be applied to rid the mind of subconscious patterns and belief systems that create habits and addictions.

4. How often do you need to apply EFT to be effective? This will vary. Sometimes you will get immediate relief of symptoms. Other times you will remove one layer and then need to apply again within the same day or the next day and remove a deeper layer of emotions to go deeper to the core issue.

5. EFT has been used to quit smoking, release weight, stop sugar cravings and most cravings and urges, including serious addictions. It can be a key to unlock the hidden emotions that cause chronic depression and other nervous disorders including anxiety and panic attacks. It has been called the emotional energy cleanser and also the "miracle worker".

The most wonderful news is that you can learn this amazing self-help tool and apply it daily to release stress and bring your body back to health no matter what your symptoms.

Want to find out more information about EFT? My book Love's Secret Live Your Life In Love shares stories at the end of each chapter and includes EFT techniques to empower you to release your self-sabotaging habits.

Our Sedona retreats include EFT, Reiki, and other powerful healing tools to get to the root of dis-ease. Let us design a retreat especially for you designed to fit your needs and budget. Take a look at our video retreat testimonial from Terry who fell in love with Sedona.
