Spa for the Soul Renewal Program
A Spa for the Soul was originally designed to promote healing for women going through divorce and other relationship transitions. Since its inception in 1998, we've consistently received the same response from lawyers, counselors and other health care professionals whose clients tell them about the retreat: "This sounds wonderful! I'd love to come myself. But is it just for people going through divorce?"
Although the answer to that question is, "no" -- the original program is really about living, not about divorcing -- we recognize that commonality of experience is a powerful bonding agent at the retreat. We like to grow alongside people who understand the way we feel.
We also know, firsthand, how draining the work world can be. Much of what we experience in our work life leaves us feeling exhausted, depleted and disconnected from who we really are. This is especially true for those in the helping professions: we may not be in a personal crisis ourselves at the moment, but the energy of our

clients and patients certainly affects us. We discount the high spiritual and emotional cost of our work, because it's rewarding to us in many ways. We put on our "game face" as if that's adequate insulation from the often troubled, negative and driven people we deal with every day.In response to these requests, we offer retreats for professionals who know that healing in their own lives will support them in more effectively healing others. Our custom retreats for lawyers, counselors and other health care professionals provide time to regain your balance, renewed energy to sustain you through the day, and tools for making appropriate, conscious choices about your direction.
