NEW! GURU DAY - MINI RETREAT
|
What is it?
The Guru Day is an opportunity to take some time out from your everyday life and get to the core of your relationship with food and your body. We'll be peeling back the layers and looking at what's at the heart of behaviours that we want to change. This day is a 'retreat' because from the moment you step into the space we have created for you, you will be stepping into the very things you may well avoid in the 'outside world'. Normal activities will be suspended and your sole focus will be you. Your desires, your longings, your pain, your fears, your joys. As a group of women we can support each other and ourselves to take the next step, to delve deep, to get what we really want.
We'll be inviting you to go take that next step... Reading and talking
and thinking are all good, they are important steps... and this day is a
day for action, a day to take a risk, if you are willing, and get real
answers. This retreat is a unique opportunity to work in a small group with Sophie and Audrey and come away with new skills and tools so that you can make changes.
Who is it for?
This is a day for experienced Beyond Chocolaters who are ready to take the next step. It is open to women who already have a good working knowledge of Beyond Chocolate and have been experimenting with the principles for a little while. On this day we will not be revisiting the basic principles. If you are a 'newbie' this retreat is not for you. The best thing to do is to find one of our fabulous local Chocolate Fairies running courses near you. See below or take a look at our website for dates and locations coming up.
What will it be like?
The retreat is limited to 16 women so that we can ensure a safe and nurturing space where everyone has the possibility to work and receive personalised feedback.
You will be guided to reflect on how far you have come on your on your Beyond Chocolate "journey" - celebrating what you achieved and identifying areas you need to focus on.
We will guiding you to explore:
What stops you feeling at peace with your relationship with food and your body? What is at the heart of your struggle with food?How do you resist doing the very things you know would make a difference?How can you harness the power of your Guru to tame your Gremlin?What is it that drives you to overeat? How do you deal with pain, frustration, loneliness, fear?How do you work with Beyond Chocolate? What place does it have in your life? How do you slip in and out of the diet mentality? How does life get in the way? We won't just be talking about these things, in true Beyond Chocolate style you will be taking part first hand in experiential activities that will provide answers, food for thought and new ways forward.
There will be time for talking and listening, time for moving and being still, time to be creative and time to take action and test new skills. Food will be an important and integral part of the day.
