Happiness is....
the alchemy of a stressfree life
Retreats are a minibreak that last a lifetime
"A woman in harmony with her spirit is like a river flowing. She goes without pretence and arrives at her destination prepared to be herself and only herself."
- Maya Angelou
Working for the spa industry I saw that people do not solve their stress situations with a massage or a bath. It was my conversation with them, that unlocked a free lifestyle. Honest conversations. The right questions and aha moments happened.
When I was invited from a friend of Mauritius to join him in Florence in an ashram, where I stayed for one month, it was the first time I had not planned anything of my journey. I planned to stay in the guest house of the ashram. I arrived and saw my luggage going from the guest house to the volonteer house. And one day the monks wanted me even to sleep in the monk grounds. So I listened to my intuition and saw my luggage moving in the ashram without my input. I was so at peace throughout the time. Until I saw a woman who moved in who was giving retreats for marshall arts once a year. And that was when it clicked, bringing massage, art, nature, experience, workshops, swimming, food into one place.
Giving others the opportunity to retreat into themselves to transform.
4 reasons women retreat
everyone wants the same:
constant inner joy
Creating a space for you to change your old habits, through personal workshops, while discovering the world is a recipe of a pilgrimage. What is the use of normal holidays?
There is no greater gift than already having inner peace before you leave this planet.
Everything falls into place when you know how to be happy with any stress situation that comes towards you.
inviting freedom within,
for a peaceful heart rate
The law of attraction works.The more you become corageous the more you become happy.
We all grow up with patterns, with people who are confused themselves.
As an adult it is your life goal to become the best version of yourself, no matter the outer circumstances. Otherwise we stay a child emotionally
supporting yourself,
no nonsense needed
You can can have 100 people around you and still experience the world as good or bad. It is your journey and how you interpret it. So become the best commentator on Earth. Everyone is on their own journey. The energy of like minded people in a group changes your perspective instantly. Eventhough we all go our way after the retreat. The retreat itself will leave footprints to beocme more serious about your own happiness.
see the blessings of any situation,
start healing
Only your own thoughts can truely upset you. Once you question them in this group environment, you will find deligtht in any situation.
To transform is to transit of the form you are living right now, that doesn't suite you. The only one that can save you, is yourself. No one will come around and knock on your door to make you feel better. All your job.
If you know that every experience no matter how bad it seems, holds within it a blessing

5 DAY RETREATS
I'm happy to introduce my new retreat system for women that is created to motivate you to seek your own inner happiness. No boring seminars with boring monologues, instead real girls camp accommodations, that are fun and luxurious. Where we jump from our pyjamas to the hairdresser, then to lunch, maybe buying a dress on the way, then go back to our own personal retreat workshop.
Where you transform and understand to create an inner world that is exactly as happy as you want to get. When you fine tune yourself to such a point where everything functions beautifully. You then dance, meditate and create. And while you are getting to know your own self, you discover beaches, and forests. And maybe you see a falling star on a night hike.
5 DAY RETREATS
DAY 1:
.........imagine joining a transformational week to find simple peace, ladies style
we stay together 24/7, just like you can be free in wandering this
Earth, you can be free of suffering....
we inhale inner peace and exhale suffering from the first moment landing..
we start our experience by letting the wind blow through our hair,
All is organized, you get picked up at the aiport, you go for lunch,
discover what happiness while discovering this beautiful world
We drive to the private villa or bungalow which awaits us like a cocoon of inspiration,
to take you on a journey that will maybe be the most important journey of our lives, to ourselves
the journey within...
Any stress we have ever had gets taken care away in transforming workshops and meditations
while we still take time to experience every region in a special way...
The trick to transform any stress into joy will astound you and will want you to dance your socks off
No boring monologues
You finally become still enough so that the answers can arise within you...
The chances are you’ll fall in love
with Portugal’s Algarve region, or Bali, the Azores, Switzerland or Marrakech
While embarking on this beautiful 5 day sarcred devine journey or the weekend to find happiness,
you will fall in love with life, because you will then know how to live a stressfree lifestyle
Your body will have radiant energy and feel more alive
finally taking care of your stress and blossoming into the best version of yourself.
Being guided back to a long forgotten freedom of life, just then, a rainbow will show up overhead or a shooting star, a singing dove, a magical sign that gives you the sign that you have arrived
