For many people, especially those who aren’t used to taking time out at a retreat, you may be wondering why I am sending you this email and inviting you to come and be nourished.
I imagine that you often put yourself last, and have a long list of stuff you are always doing for others. And that you have got used to living with a certain level of stress, that it has become fairly normal and you may not even remember what it’s like to feel stress-free.
However, stress causes a lot of harm to our physical and mental well-being, and affects our sleep and our relationships. You may be so stressed you feel like you are constantly firefighting your way through life, only to realise you’re a decade older than you thought and you no longer know who you are, what your hopes and dreams are or where you are going in life.
This may be normal but it’s not the way it has to be, it was the way I believed I’d spend my life, but then, let’s call it fate, came along and redirected me, and now I am passionate about helping others choose another way.
