Evergreen Yoga Retreat Testimonials
Shelly and Janana:
It's so hard to put into words what a wonderful, amazing, loving time I had at the retreat this past weekend. Since it was my first time ever at a retreat, I was apprehensive before I got there. When trying to prepare for the retreat while juggling home, family, and volunteer commitments, I wondered why I was even bothering to add *one more thing* to my already-full life. I was also worried that my yoga would be judged "not good enough".
From the moment I arrived there I felt as if I had found what I was searching for--when I wasn't even aware I was searching! Your retreat was all about support and space; space to discover my heart, space to try new things, space to listen to the voice within. I felt welcome.
Every time I turned a corner there was a new delight. The other women on the retreat were so nice, and the yoga so restorative. Every event showed me a part of myself that I had almost forgotten. The grounds of Bon Secours were beautiful, and every meal had a good surprise. Fresh asparagus! Blueberry pancakes! Wonderful saladbar! The weekend was so nurturing that many times I found myself on the verge of happy tears.
Shelly, you were right when you said that so many of us are caretakers of others. It's so easy to get caught up in everyone else's demands and everyone else's needs that we disappear inside ourselves. This retreat couldn't exist if you didn't take care of all of us. Janana, you have such a lovely way of looking into people's souls and making them feel as if they matter.
I so look forward to the next retreat!
