Description
Is it time to reset?
Do you find you are kinder to others than yourself?
If it’s your time to find the balance between self-compassion and compassion for others, and you want to discover creative tools for actionable change this retreat is for you.
Amanda and Anne, the writer and the therapist, have run retreats over the last five years that help people to change their stories. The combination of inspiration, practical application and creativity has been reviewed by attendees as “a life-changing experience.”
“A beautiful, profound collaboration. The writer and the therapist combined into a symphony of love, grace, balance, faith and joy! “— Elaine Fraser: retreat attendee.

During this 4 day retreat, Anne and Amanda will provide comprehensive teaching on compassion that is rarely offered in intensive settings.

This model delivered as a retreat is an excellent way to connect with the compassion deep inside you longing to emerge.
People tell us they walk away by the end of our Compassionate retreats with a newfound sense of being – a compassionate being. This retreat will fundamentally change your relationship with yourself and everyone you are connected to.
