I need a break. What about you?

Have you planned your summer holiday yet, ?I just did my plans today, and omg it is like my nervous system already boarded that plane cause I feel so relaxed now knowing I got a proper break coming. I have been working on retreats I am co-facilitating this summer and been thinking how this word "retreat" actually breaks down:Re- = a prefix, used with the meaning “back” or “backward” to indicate withdrawal or backward motion: regenerate; refurbish; retype; retrace; revert. Treat = a special and enjoyable occasion or experience, often a reward or celebrationRetreat is all about regeneration of energy by having an enjoyable experience. We all need to retreat ourselves at times. To get space to dial down, quiet the noise to rejuvenate ourselves. Summer season has now started, which means summer holiday planning.So, I've got questions for you.If you were to arrange a retreat or holiday to look forward to that your body, mind and soul really needs - what would that look like for you this summer?Where would you go? With whom? Or, would you do it solo? We gotta regenerate and rest, even though summer is the most active time socially and action wise.See, most of the year we serve and work - summer is the time to also be enjoyed and have things to look forward to.You know that feeling when you make plans and you got something to look forward to?I've got that feeling right now - and oh my goodness, I know I'll be so motivated and inspired to work until my holiday knowing such a heart-filling reward is coming.So, whether it is a short or a longer break, abroad or local, connect with what that ideal summer retreat to regenerate yourself looks like.Make it a priority.Then plan it. Schedule it. Do it. Once you've got your plans - reply to this email and let me know what you're looking forward to. :)I have been dreaming about facilitating my own retreats too to offer space for rejuvenation, and I am dipping my toes in it this year by co-hosting two retreats this summer.So, if either of the two below resonate with your heart - maybe they can be part of your summer retreat plan.Check out the details below.With gratitude, I send you love and light.Essi xx
