Retreats 2012
If interested in any of the following retreats, please email joan@joanandersononline.com
The emphasis for this year is on adventure—as I grow and change, so too do those who retreat with me. The root word for adventure is advent which means to begin and start anew. So much in my life is in flux that I have decided it’s high time to shake things up once again, challenge myself and others, take a risk or two, dare to be different and for sure, push the envelope.
Each of the retreats listed below will do just that.

A Second Journey to Embrace Body and Soul
Chatham Bars Inn and Spa on Cape Cod
The call to a 2nd journey commences when unexpected change is thrust upon you, causing a crisis of feelings so great that you are stopped in your tracks. A woman caught thusly has no choice but to pause, isolate, even relocate until she can reevaluate the direction in which she should head. should she stay the course or choose another path? The goal is to come of age in the middle of like rather than live out our days lacking purpose and energy.
This retreat is for Healing Body and Soul, finding the Patience within oneself to do so, becoming clear with what was outlived in order to embrace what is unlived, and to leave feeling a new sense of Grace and Peace. Joan will lead you through the process of individuation, understanding your strengths, connecting with your body, spa treatments (optional), a contemplative time, weaving your life cycles and more.
No place more elegant and comfortable- an Inn that offers all the amenities a seeking woman deserves.
Cost: Single $1,170.00 Double $970.00

The Second Journey: Every Woman's Odyssey
Kripalu, Berkshires of Western MA
The journey of finding yourself is a holy endeavor. You aren’t simply progressing through your life but becoming a scholar of self and soul. Now is the time to befriend, not berate, the amazing person you have become. Step away from your ordinary existence for a weekend of listening to your highest self. By feeding your muse, creating intention, and being present, you can finally hear what your heart wants to tell you.
New York Times best-selling author Joan Anderson guides you through a series of exercises, questionnaires, and journaling techniques to bring clarity to your life goals. You are encouraged to use body, hands, mind, and senses in a weekend designed around the six Rs: retreat, retrieve, repair, regroup, regenerate, and return. Using techniques as varied as weaving and seeking metaphors in nature, you come to understand your strengths, appreciate the lessons learned along the way, celebrate your metamorphosis, and be ready to launch your second journey.
