Although this is not a leadership retreat, many elements of personal growth tie into Conscious Leadership.

1. Self-reflection and personal growth:

Awareness of self makes us better leaders. This retreat will provide you with dedicated time and space to reflect on where you are living consciously and where you are going on autopilot. Through facilitated workshops, discussions, and activities, you can gain valuable insights into yourself and areas for improvement. This self-reflection aids in your personal growth and development, which ultimately enhances your leadership abilities.

2. Networking and collaboration:

By bringing together people from a multitude of industries, organizations, and practice areas, you will have the chance to meet people with varied backgrounds and learn from their experiences. You will also have the chance to network, collaborate, and engage in meaningful discussions, sharing experiences, and learning from others.

The Conscious Leadership attributes are life attributes - by engaging with them and incorporating them into our daily lives, we set ourselves up for success in all that we do.

The retreat is made up of a structured timetable of daily sessions including yoga classes, meditations, mindfulness activities and expert-led workshops.

You are encouraged to attend all the structured sessions so that you can make the most of this experience, as everything has been planned to enable a flow of knowledge from day to day.

You are however free to choose to opt in or out of sessions whenever your intuition guides you to do so.

Please note that there will be no discounts or refunds if you choose not to participate in any of the sessions, as all have been pre-paid based on the assumption that by signing up to the retreat you consent to participate in all of the sessions provided to you.

You will be required to inform us on you registration form of any conditions you may have that require ongoing support, attention or treatment. You will need to provide a letter from your doctor outlining what you may need during your stay, what medications you take daily and what to do in an emergency.

You will also need to show proof of medical insurance or medical cover in Canada for the duration of your stay as all countries have different regulations in place for medical treatment particularly if you are not a Canadian permanent resident.

Travel insurance for non-Canadian residents is a requirement to attend.

The retreat program has been structured in such a way to provide you with ample free time between sessions.

The communal areas have comfortable spaces for you to sit, mingle with your fellow retreat goers, walk in nature or journal in silence.

Until the 31st of January 2024, your payments minus the non-refundable deposit, will be returned to you in the event that you can no longer attend.

After the 31st of January 2024, no refunds can be made unless you find another person to fill your spot.

This retreat is open to women aged 18 years old and over.
