Retreats

When was the last time you allowed yourself to honor your body, mind, and spirit by relaxing and renewing yourself in a beautiful natural setting? So many of us live in over-drive, over-scheduled and over-committed in service to others, that it's easy to forget what we need to THRIVE as people and as leaders.

From Maxed to Relaxed Retreat
Saturday, March 10, 2012
10-4pm   Minneapolis

You know what it’s like to be maxed.

Always more to do…
A constancy of demands…
And rarely a moment just for you.

You, the maxed mom.
You, the maxed leader,
You, the maxed volunteer,
You, the maxed business owner,
You, who rarely gets to time just for you.

 Let’s change that.
Not just for one minute…
Not just for one hour…
Let’s shift from maxed to relaxed.

 This is a day for you.
Restore, renew.
Just be for a while.
Learn, play, breathe.
Laugh and RELAX.

Come away with tools which will aide you in the days ahead--
tools which are relevant both personally and professionally.

Make the shift: From Maxed to Relaxed.
Join us.  You’re worth it. It is time.

Thinking about a retreat with Michelle?  So was Christine. She wanted to move forward in her life but with leading a team of nearly 100 people, being a devoted mom and grandma, she rarely took time for herself. She contacted Michelle about a public retreat as it would the most cost effective for her. However, as they discussed her reasons for considering a retreat, it became clear that a 1:1 retreat would actually be best. But could she afford it? 

Read Christine's story...

"Michelle has a gift for sensing into the energy of your being so she can guide your experience so your soul’s direction is visible.  A window gets opened so you can see your true path become illuminated! It’s magical!"
–Mike Fricke www.mikefricke.com


"The spiritual space that Michelle created and the energy she held
while we were out walking in nature was an integral part of the experience. I could feel the level of preparation and reflection she had done prior to our arrival. It was very honoring. I trusted that magic would happen and it did! We so appreciated her ability to create a retreat for the two of us."
–Theresa Fricke www.theresafricke.com

I create and lead custom retreats for executive teams, boards of directors, educators, professional women, solo-preneurs and private individuals--savvy, heart-centered leaders who know that retreat is an essential investment in sustainable, inspired leadership. It helps restore vitality and resilience.

Within the peaceful space of my retreats, which are held in a beautiful natural setting, you listen to, and reconnect with, your body. You experience silence that renews--but you also engage in what I call sacred conversation: you find yourself speaking your truth, listening to others at a deeper level than daily life allows, and opening to transformative connections with one another, the natural world, and yourself. You reconnect with your divine nature through the instinctual wisdom of the body and the earth.

 Out of this, new possibilities for inspired action are born.

"A leader who does not ever retreat, feed their soul, refresh their spirit—simply keeps giving out of what they had. They will run out, they will run stale; they will not have as good a storehouse to give out of to those they lead as they would if they were taking time to retreat."--Judy Keefe

"Michelle, you did a wonderful job as our retreat facilitator. Thank you ever so much for leading our group in a relaxing, refreshing “time out”."
