A weekend of “sacred space” in the Blue Ridge Mountains... A retreat from the outside world for personal reflection and rejuvenation... A “fun” learning experience for your body, mind, soul, and spirit... A unique opportunity to create new possibilities for you, your clients, your world...
Join
us for what promises to be a most unique experience for you to discover
and explore your own sacred space while the retreat itself creates
sacred group space for us. Nestled in the serene beauty of the Blue Ridge
Mountains in Blowing Rock, North Carolina, we will explore our inner
sacred space as well as our connection with others and the outside
world.
Co-facilitators Andy Moretz and Nancy Elizabeth
Green will share ideas and practical techniques from their own
professional and personal healing practices, offering participants the
opportunity to move beyond limitations and bring forth new possibilities
for growth and change. Participants will learn how the "sacred space"
perspective can help them in their own personal development.
Participants from a variety of “healing” modalities also will learn how
these simple strategies can be used to enhance their work with others.
