How is the guide
meant to be used?
It's meant to be used as a reference guide. It can be used
alone or shared with sisters, friends, mothers or daughters.
It can be used in pieces -- for a quiet lunch hour, an
afternoon alone -- or for a full two-day retreat. It can be
used for any reason and for any amount of time. There's no
right way to use this guide – you can make it your own. |
| |
Can I use the
guide if I've never done a retreat before?
Absolutely! It was designed for any woman who desires to create a
more authentic, meaningful life. If you've never been on a retreat,
or never even thought of going on a retreat before, this guide will
provide you with an easy-to-follow template for designing your own
retreat. |
| |
Would the guide still be
helpful if I've attended structured retreats in the past?
This kit is the perfect tool for extending, or expanding on, any
retreat experience. The first time you use this guide, plan to work
through the lessons and exercises from the front of the guide to the
end. After that, you can pick it up and work through one of the
exercises when you have a quiet hour or two. |
| |
Can I use this guide for a
retreat with a friend, or group of friends?
This guide can easily (and enjoyably) be adapted for group retreats.
It would be an insightful addition to have group discussions at the
completion of each exercise. You can also create a weekly women's
circle using this guide – with an exercise and discussion each week
and a celebration at the conclusion. |
| |
How long does it take to work
through the entire guide?
The first time you use this guide, it's most effective if you work
from the front to the back of the guide. This can be done in a
series of mini-retreats, in four half-day retreats, in two full-day
retreats (or any combination of these), or you can complete the
entire guide in a two-day retreat. |
| |
Can I buy the guide without
buying the whole kit?
At this time the guide is only available as part of the personal
retreat kit. It will be sold individually, however, at A Woman's Way
retreats. |

How can Karen Drucker's CD be
used as part of a retreat?
Music sets a quiet, contemplative mood that is essential to any
retreat experience. Karen Drucker created this CD especially for A
Retreat of My Own. It's a compilation of her most meditative,
inspirational music and will provide you with the perfect
accompaniment for your retreat. |
| |
Why is a journal included in
the kit?
Writing is a powerful tool for personal discovery. Because of this,
we've included a journal in the kit to encourage you to make
journaling as important to your daily routine as taking a shower or
brushing your teeth. And you'll love the purple journal! |
| |
When does the 10% A Woman's
Way coupon expire?
The coupon has no expiration date. Use it when you find a
retreat or
workshop you'd like to attend. The only exception is the coupon
cannot be used for our
outdoor adventure retreats. |
| |
Can I give my 10% coupon to a
friend or relative?
Absolutely! It's yours to use as you'd like. |
| |

Would A Retreat of My Own be a
good gift for a friend or relative?

give them the greatest gift of all . . . a journey back to
themselves. |
