How a Retreat Can Curb Your Overthinking
Analysis Paralysis
It’s said we make up to 35,000 decisions every single day.
It’s no surprise we feel overwhelmed. We’re constantly “on,” constantly choosing, constantly questioning. And when life already feels too full, the mental load becomes unbearable.
A retreat strips back all that noise. For a few precious days, you don’t have to decide what to cook, what your schedule looks like, or how you’ll find time to squeeze everything into your day.
You just have to show up.
The Space You’ve Been Needing
When you’re stuck in that cycle of overthinking, it can be hard to find a way out.
Sometimes, a moment to slow down is all it takes.
A retreat gives you the time and space to reflect on what you want from life, and reconnect with that voice inside you that’s been there all along.
That voice within you that dares to dream of something different. The one sees the way life could be. The one that’s so often silenced by the busy day to day.
It’s not about having all the answers by the time you leave, but about giving yourself enough stillness and space to start to discover what you want and need from life.
Not Just “A Weekend Away”
The AWAKEN Retreat isn’t just about yoga and river views (though we’ve got both). It’s about real, gentle transformation.
We blend daily movement with self-discovery workshops, creative journaling, and coastal walks. An EFT expert session offers stress release for our busy minds.
The weekend can look however you want. Join as many or as few activities as you like. Swap stories, laugh, cry, chat around the fire, or simply….be.
Enjoy one weekend without a to-do list to just exist in nature and allow yourself to take time for whatever it is that you need.
You’re Not Alone
If the idea of pressing pause sounds both dreamy and slightly terrifying... you’re not alone.
Rest assured, plenty of people have arrived with the same fears, and found experiences they’d never expected to have.
After last year’s retreat, Claire told me, “You were all so welcoming and I didn’t ever feel uncomfortable or out of place not knowing anyone. When I left I felt like I had known everyone for ages in a weird way, it would be so lovely to stay in touch and meet up again.”
Mandy arrived apprehensive. "I arrived unsure, out of my comfort zone, being grumpy at home.” she told me, “I left feeling relaxed, happy and pleased with my new achievements having spent time with such lovely ladies."
