“I now have clear guidelines for the next stage of my life. I feel more confident about it and am ready to work on implementing my goals.” – Eloise
Modern life is fast-paced and offers us many choices, many of which may go unnoticed or we have too little time to consider. Our Set Your Compass Retreat provides the time and the space to review your life, passions, roles and values, and set new directions for the next 12 months. Explore your personal meaning and purpose in life, and develop actions that will enable you to fulfill your unique mission in life.
This program provides the opportunity to take time out from daily pressures and develop skills to be more in charge of your own life and make sure that it is going in the direction you want it to go in.
The retreat will include:
- Meditation and contemplation
- Short informative talks
- Artistic expression
- Individual and group sessions
- Laughter and African rhythm
- Walks in nature
Participants will develop a personal ‘road map’ document naming their key goals and values for the year ahead.
