Description
Discover the magic of retreating, wherever you are and however much time you have. What comes into your mind when you hear the word "retreat"? Meditation at a mountain monastery? A trip to far-flung places? The centuries-old practice of retreating is rooted in a person's inner life and belongs to everyone. This book offers you the wisdom and practical steps to retreat wherever you are, whether it's for a long weekend, a day--or even an hour. Using the seasons as an optional guide, each chapter delves into a simple theme to focus your exploration, taking you through a range of enticing activities to help you discover a happier version of yourself. From decluttering your home to tapping into your creativity, from finding your flow to learning how to say no, this accessible and beautiful collection of retreats will enable you to restore, repair, and rejuvenate yourself.
