Upcoming in the
April Issue look forward to the Rediscover Your Self
in Bali Retreat Review and some breathtaking photos of our
life enriching experience.
Also look for the
announcement of 2008 dates for three new retreats in Bali!
Here are some of
the participant comments:
" Laila's
thoughtful planning and attention to detail brought a dimension
to my Balinese experience that I wouldn't have been able to
find myself in such a brief visit. Doing the deep therapeutic
work against the Bali backdrop was magical."
" I cleared
and faced new and old issues. Found serenity, peace, calm
and openness. Received clarity about self and direction of
path."
" I traveled
nearly half way round the world and there I found a part of
me who had been hiding for a quarter of a century. My deepest
thanks to Laila and the group."
"The process
really helped me identify issues and gain clarity. The tools
learned will serve me for the rest of my life."
" Thank
you very much Laila for the amazing experience and for taking
such good care of us. You have created a miracle in Bali."

NEW PACKAGE

|

We've grouped together
our most popular requests into 3 retreat/workshop fee options
designed to suit your specific budget of money and time. Many
packages now include private therapy sessions with group facilitator,
Laila Ghattas, which help to kick start or integrate the group
process.
There are also retreat packages with private room, and loads
of extra's. For a peak sample click
here for Women's getaway packages.
Also please note

to help you ensure your personal growth goals are accessible.

PRIVATE THERAPY


|
Individuals are
more frequently asking for 2 hour private individual or
couples therapy sessions as a means to effectively make
use of time commited to personal growth. Often a client accesses
pressing issues 30-40 minutes into a session which, in a two
hour frame, allows for relaxed exploration and integration
of insights.
With an expertise
in three complimentary modalities, Laila Ghattas provides
the unique opportunity to move easily in response to the client's
needs from traditional talk based Gestalt therapy, into non-verbal,
creative Expressive Art therapy or into bodywork based Usui
Reiki over the course of 120 minutes. These flow into a tailored
session that effectively inspire, encourage and nurture the
healing process.
Please
email to book your appointment in Toronto.

SEA KAYAKING GETAWAYS

Gliding along Canada's
Georgian Bay archipelago is one of life's sweetest pleasures.

in moving water, glancing at the tapestry of shoreline wildlife,
chatting casually alongside a kindred spirit, feeling strength
in long forgotten muscles, silence broken by drops dripping
from your paddle, who wouldn't want that experience at least
once in her life?
