About the show

By the time you’re listening to this, I’ll be happily in retreat-land. I’m heading off on a very short silent retreat (my first since my kiddo was born), so I wanted to take this minisode to talk about why I take retreats, the value of a retreat, what you can expect, and how to know whether a retreat is right for you.

Homework

Take a mini-retreat. Take an afternoon or even an hour to retreat with yourself for some meditation, journaling, and reflection—or join me for a replay of Craft Your Sacred Year, a mini-retreat to help you envision your year and life, with tons of supportive materials to help you feel like you’ve retreated, but from the comfort of your own home.
