Welcome!!

  • Is it time you did something just for you?
  • Do you long for connection, conversation and support beyond the small talk level?
  • Do you feel a desire to connect with nature?
  • Do you long to step away from your life for a brief time?
  • Do you want to explore new ideas and techniques for creative expression in a supportive environment?
If you answered "yes",
then you have come to the right place!!



Welcome to the Space Between!! You may recognize this title from a great Dave Matthews song, but it is also the chosen title for a very special experience. It represents the space that you give to yourself between the constant demands of your everyday life. A space in which you not only step away from those demands, but in which you expand your personal experience, nourish your body, mind and spirit in a beautiful and peaceful natural setting and connect with other like-mined souls. If you have not yet had an opportunity like this, you are in for a treat!!




The retreats take place at a luxurious mountain lodge high atop Mt. Palomar, in northeast San Diego County. There are 8 acres to explore, providing plenty of space for roaming, but we are also right down the road from the Palomar Mountain State Park and its network of hiking trails. Time is scheduled in a way that provides structure to the retreat, but plenty of free time is built in as well. With no more than 10 women, the retreats are intimate and comfortable.




We are currently setting up the fall retreat which will take place October 21 – 23, 2010, with the option for an additional night of mostly open-ended time.


 Our regular activities include:


Hiking
Photography
Journaling
Self-Discovery exercises
Poetry
Inspirational Powerpoints
Structured and unstructured sharing
Soul Collage-type activity
Preparation "homework"

For this retreat, we are also hoping to incorporate:

Gourd Art with Carolyn Wolf-Russell
Shiva Nata with Elizabeth Halt

I hope that you will consider joining us!  We still have a few spots available for this retreat.  Please email me with any questions or to save a spot.
