Getting Back to Joy

Curated by:  Deiadre Rauch, Leadership Coach and Yoga Teacher and Deirdre Soraci, Leadership Coach and Meditation Teacher

2020 was a year that has tested our ability to feel Joy in so many ways, and 2021 started off with many of the same challenges.  How can you feel Joy in the midst of hardship, change and chaos?

Join us for an intimate one-day retreat to explore "Getting Back to Joy".  Escape your daily routines, breath and reflect with like minded women. The retreat will take place at the Briar Patch Bed and Breakfast Inn, in Middleburg, VA, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains.  The Briar Patch has huge facilities designed for larger events and we have booked the entire Inn for our retreat, in order to give us the space we need to be safe and within Covid-19 regulations. We are limiting attendance to 8 women.

The content for the retreat is based loosely on the book, "The Book of Joy" by Douglas Abrams, and consisting of conversations about Joy between the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu.  We will incorporate movement and meditation into the day, and focus on the questions around, "How do you remove the obstacles for Joy?"  "What is Joy made up of?"  How can you form a personal practice of Joy?

Starting a new year is an ideal time to process and make space for something new to unfold. Be guided in the reflections, share and leave with new intentions.
