Do you ever wonder why women aren't coming to the retreats you work so hard to plan? Have you noticed it's the same group every year? While the group has fun, it feels a bit "stuck," as if you've fallen into a rut.
Maybe you have.
Along the way, you've probably gotten exhausted. Driving in the rut is a lot less exhilarating than being on the open road with the refreshing wind and sunshine on your face. Plus, you can't see a whole lot besides the rut because it takes a lot more attention than you'd like. Instead of walking away from the retreat with refreshment, you feel you need a retreat! And Calgon doesn't seem powerful enough to take you away! (For you youngsters, who don't know what Calgon is, check out this vintage commercial. It's a classic. In other words, it's old.)
Today's articles will help you get out of the retreat rut and give you ideas for finding spiritual refreshment in everyday opportunities. Bubble bath not included.
