Cultivating Inner Peace

Les Labadous, South of France​
​September 25th - October 1st, 2019

Workshop Description

"It is not the potential stressor itself but how you perceive it and then how you handle it that will determine whether or not it will lead to stress." - Jon Kabat-Zinn
We all perceive life through our own individual lens, and this lens determines how much, and in what way life stressors effect us. When you make the decision to Choose Again, you change your lens — you literally see things differently. 
Choose Again's unique Six Step process will allow you to identify and take hold of habitual thought patterns, and the beliefs behind these patterns. With this knowledge, you will be able to see stress coming, and stop it in it's tracks, things that previously had you up all night worrying will slide right by you.

Making the decision to Choose Again allows you to place yourself in a position of deep-rooted strength so you can stand tall in the face of stressors, and quickly recover your peace and serenity when life gets challenging.
​
In the workshop you will:
  • Embark on a journey of self discovery;
  • Identify and release thought patterns that no longer serve you;
  • Empower yourself by taking control over your own life;
  • Free yourself of your unconscious beliefs;
  • Nurture inner peace and serenity;
  • Enrich the quality of your life;
  • Transform your life for good.

Methodology:

Cultivating Inner Peace is a process of identifying what triggers your stress, and building the resilience and inner peace to let it go, and choose another way to respond, and this workshop will offer a program dedicated to the cultivation of these skills.
​You will be guided through a variety of healing practices such as:
  • Meditation
  • Self-reflection
  • Dynamic group process
  • Therapeutic breathwork
  • Practice of the Choose Again Six Steps to Freedom
At the end of this workshop, you will have fostered a sense of choice over who you are and how you live in the world.

"This is my second workshop and I highly recommend it. Both have been quite magical, transforming experiences. There is so much love and care in the group work that it makes processing difficult feelings and beliefs easy. After just a few days you came to the realization that we really are all just ‘one’ (just our mind/ego likes to think otherwise). Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!"
 
- Bridget Garcia.

Christine Reidtmann

​Diederik’s six steps have transformed my life, relieving me from years of recurrent heavy depression. Since I have come into contact with Choose again a few years ago I have witnessed miraculous transformations in many others.
 
It is important for me to give more people access to the method. I do that in my everyday life whenever someone seems to be in need and agrees to choosing again. It is a joy for me to participate in workshops at Centre Les Labadous and to facilitate Choose again circles.

Fred Wilberts

Fred is one of our senior staff at the Choose Again Intensive Retreat in Costa Rica. He says: "To me, it makes sense that "what I give, I receive" or "Your healing is my healing".
I am so grateful I can continue this healing journey with you within a clear Choose Again framework with the Six Steps Process at our disposal. Very simple, very practical, very efficient. 
And let it be a happy journey! Yes, let's be brutally honest and courageous in the process, for sure, but let's not forget to laugh at ourselves because, in the end, laughter is all my insanity deserves."

Anne Andrew

Anne has been an indispensable part of Choose Again for many years. Anne and her family began their journey with Choose Again as client's of Diederik, and when they saw the power of the work to turn their family into a healthy and harmonious unit, they dedicated much of their time and energy to working behind the scenes promoting and supporting Choose Again, so other families could benefit too. Recently, Anne has launched her own consulting firm using her experience as a school principal, and the Choose Again Six Steps to guide parents in raising mentally healthy kids.

Les Labadous

We asked Choose Again Program Director Diederik Wolsak a few questions about Les Labadous.
We wanted to know what made the place so special to him, and what you can expect from participating in a workshop there.
