Everyone needs to get away. The problem is sometimes people go to get away and don’t actually get away. They go on vacation to someplace tropical and somehow come back feeling like they need a vacation from the vacation. Why is that? Vacation can be fun and beautiful but you are still not far away from home. You can be contacted by work through email and your phone and your friends can call you and email you and you can still check into your social media life. At a personal retreats location you hand in your phone and focus entirely on you.
Vacations are great. Lying on a beach is great. Going to Europe can be life changing. However, these types of vacations don’t always do the trick that retreats for healing do. The great thing about going on a retreat is it’s almost like you are going to work for a weekend on your mind, your body and your spirit. You don’t need to take off time from work and stress about what’s going on at the office that you are missing and worry about how much money you are spending going out to dinner every night when you go on a retreat.
