In case you didn’t hear last week, I am full of delight to announce my next Sedona retreat November 7th to the 11th (that is 11/11)!
If you have yet to participate in one of my retreats, the benefits await you!
You will …
Deepen self-awareness and be provided an opportunity to disconnect from daily distractions and engage in self-reflection. This can lead to a greater understanding of yourself, your personal values, and your purpose.
Rest and rejuvenate! You will be taken to one of the most peaceful, natural environments, and take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Here you will recharge, reduce stress, and restore your overall well-being.
Experience inner transformation no doubt as we gather for meditation, movement, ritual, mindfulness, and so much more intended to facilitate your personal growth and inner transformation.
Connect with like-minded souls who are ready and seeking what you are seeking. You will be heard, held, and understood!
Have an opportunity for healing and if you wish - energy work. We will be incorporating nature's medicine, sound, and other holistic rituals which will allow your nervous system the space to heal. These practices can promote emotional healing, release blockages, and will support overall well-being.
If you are looking for an environment conducive to exploring and deepening your spiritual journey, you have found it.
AND THERE IS AN EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT THIS MONTH ONLY! Need a payment option? Please ask. I’ll be happy to work with anyone who is sincere in their desire to be part of this journey!
Until that time, I invite you this week, to Unmanic your Monday by mapping out and creating a mini spiritual retreat at home! It is a wonderful way to create sacred space and nourish your soul.
Here is the recipe to cook it up — choose to do what you wish!
1. Choose your day and set your intention. Determine what you hope to gain, whether it's relaxation, self-reflection, or spiritual connection. Write it down in a journal.
2. Create a peaceful environment. Set aside a dedicated space in your home where you can retreat. Clear the area of clutter, decorate it with meaningful objects or symbols, and ensure it feels serene and inviting.
** As you prepare your space, also make sure you plan to nourish your body, by preparing healthy, nourishing meals that support your well-being. Plan to eat clean the day of! Consider incorporating a gentle detox or cleansing practice if it aligns with your intentions.
3. When the day arrives, disconnect from distractions by silencing your phone, turning off notifications, and minimizing external distractions. This will allow you to be fully present.
4. The day of, I highly recommend fasting for a bit in the morning.
5. Take the morning to engage in mindfulness by incorporating practices like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga. These activities can help you center yourself, cultivate inner peace, and connect with your inner self.
6. Embrace silence and solitude in a rich way. Reading spiritual texts, journaling, or engaging in creative expression.
7. Break your fast with Cacao. I highly recommend Keith’s cacao and can certainly help you map this part (and all of it) out!
8. Connect with nature and spend time outdoors if possible. Take a walk in nature, sit in a garden, or simply bask in the beauty of natural surroundings. Nature has a way of grounding and reconnecting us to our spiritual essence.
9. When you eat, make sure to have clean high vibing food, and savor each bite mindfully.
10. Engage in deeper self-care practices like taking a bath, practicing aromatherapy, doing a home spa treatment, or simply enjoying a moment of relaxation.
The key is to create an intentional and sacred space where you can focus on nurturing your spirit.
Customize your mini-retreat based on your preferences and needs, and be open to the insights and transformations that can arise from this dedicated time for yourself!
And if you wish to go deeper, schedule a time with me the day of. I am here to help you!
Have a magnificent week and may you bask in the love of self-exploration.
With love and gratitude,
Alara
