Cultivating Inner Peace

​September 17 - September 23, 2018

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.
"We can lovingly start looking at "who is the I that is stressed?"."

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."
