Creative Visioning Retreat

Sunday, October 18, 2020 at 8:45 AM – 3:45 PM, The Owl and The Pussy Cat Farm Animal Sanctuary, Crabbes Creek Valley, North NSW (in the border bubble!)

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
~Steve Jobs

This full day retreat is hosted at The Owl and The Pussy Cat Farm Animal Sanctuary nestled in the gorgeous Crabbes Creek Valley. For a full day you will be supported to fully relax and recenter. In between yoga, journalling, group sessions and crafty, creative visioning you’ll be nurtured with delicious and nourishing vegan delights, surrounded by luscious countryside and the most delightful menagerie of sweet natured rescue animals.

The Covid shut down was a time of re-evaluation for many of us. Some loved the invitation to slow down and go inward, experiencing the kind of ease and flow they had been longing for for lifetimes. For others balancing work, home schooling and the emotional turmoil of isolation was stressful and sometimes traumatic. How ever the events of the first half of this year landed for you, we are being invited to re-evaluate, take a breath, leave behind old patterns that don’t serve us and embrace new ways of being. This period of global transition has required rapid adaption and change on the fly. Now that life is taking on a new kind of normalcy many of us are needing the chance to move forward in a more deliberate way. To consciously choose what we want to keep from our pre- covid lives, what new habits and learnings lock down brought about and how we want to transition forward. This one day retreat is all about supporting you to claim your most heartfelt pathway forward.`Using the power of creativity this is a profound chance to clarify your heartfelt life and business vision, relaxing into your flow while you’re at it!
