On today’s show, I talk about the benefits of going on a retreat, and the joy that we can experience from being in a retreat space. When recording this show, I had just returned from an amazing retreat experience in Costa Rica, at Blue Spirit Costa Rica where I was taught and guided by Paul Selig, a psychic, teacher and award-winning author. I discuss the importance of self-care and talk about how at its core, the word “retreat” means to withdraw, to move back.

I discuss the importance of self-care and talk about how at its core, the word “retreat” means to withdraw, to move back. Going on a retreat provides space in which to retreat from our daily lives. It is not to escape or deny our daily lives. On the contrary, going into a retreat space is to give ourselves the opportunity to open up, to make better space for our daily lives, and it provides an opportunity for self-improvement and self-care.
I talk about the retreats that I have been on at the Omega Institute in upstate New York; a nature retreat in the Hoh Rainforest in Washington State; Blue Spirit Costa Rica; retreats in the Cayman Islands with Authentic You Retreats; and numerous online retreats, including with Deepak Chopra.
In the context of Costa Rica, which is a Blue Zone country, I discuss longevity and steps we can take to enjoy healthy longevity.
With each retreat I have attended, I feel a sense of spiritual growth and personal development.
If you’re thinking of going on your first retreat, I really hope that this show provides guidance for you.
