NEW CREATIVE RETREATS
Many people do feel hemmed in by a life that is highly structured with time constraints-- their creativity is stifled and has no support system within the demands of a busy life.

As Albert Einstein said
“The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.”

Creative Retreats 2007 gives the opportunity for the customer to withdraw from the bustle of everyday life for a day. They will be nurtured by healthy home cooked food and a glass of good local wine, they will learn new skills and will have
the time to retrieve their creativity in a calm, peaceful atmosphere. In Jewellery making, the task of choosing a few beads from a room displaying thousands of beads, arranging the beads in a pleasing pattern, then learning the technical skills to hold it all together is a creative process which is very energizing. An added bonus is that it can be worn immediately.
Drawing, Painting your own wall feature, Principles of Colour Theory and Design, meditation techniques, aromatherapy, herbal remedies and massage retreats are on offer as well as jewellery making in 2007. Gift Certificates are available
and the customer will not have to bring a thing with them. Everything is provided for the day.

Creative Retreat Testimonial
Thank you so much for today's retreat.  Everything was wonderful -- the venue, the ambience, the company, the wonderful food and the teacher!   Yourhelpers are delightful. I learned heaps of helpful hints and have the confidence to try them out at home.  I already have a couple of orders from family members for a chain
necklaces.   I'm sure I'll be back there shopping soon, and look forward to enrolling in another retreat early in February.
Thanks, Pat
