Cynthia is an amazing host, Chris serves up the tastiest, homemade food, he is an amazing Chef, I would come here just for the food! Jennifer's sound healing is so soothing & she emanates healing energy. Laura has such a warm & welcoming personality. I felt so comfortable with her & so grateful I had the opportunity to be guided by her on this amazing journey."
- "It was absolutely amazing. A day to learn, share, bond and heal."
- "Facilitators can make or break sessions like this and I feel/think you have an inviting, safe, and supportive approach which makes for a wonderful space to share what one wishes without the feeling of being judged. I thought this was a great place to have the retreat, being in nature, as that connection is so integral to touching the inner space of who we are at our core, or, at the very least, opening a door of curiousity as to who we are. Self-care is key."
