Join me-- It’s time to REVITALIZE your SOUL

Here’s the inside scoop on a big secret—the key to living a life you love—complete with career, relationships, meaningful success, community, and connection that delight you, is intuition.

 

Plain and simple, intuition is the easiest and most peaceful way to forge a direct line to your Soul and all its insight, wisdom and yearnings. Intuition is like our own no-fail inner guidance system that allows us to live to our full potential. Joy!

 

When we are disconnected from our intuition we might make decisions that please others, become driven by a To-Do list or procrastinate SELF-time –even to the point where we totally forget who we are or what WE like.

 

When’s the last time you took a break to relax, rejuvenate, connect with nature and your SELF…and listen to your inner wisdom? (Or maybe you’re wondering what it even means to listen to your inner wisdom and want to learn more…)

 

The fast pace of everyday life makes it very difficult to listen to our intuition and hear our inner guidance system.  Often we’re left feeling depleted, off-track or simply over-loaded with activity and stimuli.

 

But guess what? You’ve got a chance to revitalize your Soul and cultivate your intuition at the same time.

 

Let me help you connect with your inner wisdom with ease by providing you the place, the support and structure to unplug from busy-ness and productivity, and immerse yourself into rejuvenation, peace and flow. Watch your intuition unfold.

 

Set in the beautiful region of Larkspur, surrounded by pines, aspen trees and expansive open space, Ponderosa Retreat Center offers a refreshing change of pace, only 50 minutes south of Denver.

 

It’s a simple environment that takes me back to my days at summer camp. Ponderosa Retreat Center provides the peaceful spaciousness of the mountains and charm of days gone by. This is an ideal setting for a Soul and Intuition Retreat.

 

As many of you know, I believe that a new beginning can happen whenever we choose. I consider a retreat the perfect opportunity to step into a new beginning in our lives—whether actual or imagined through our intentions.

 

We’ll spend our time in a variety of activities designed to revitalize the soul and integrate mind, body and spirit.  The results are easier access to our intuition for our best decisions, powerful insights, and a sense of harmony within ourselves.

 

What we’ll cover together during the retreat:

  • Embrace Simplicity- immersed in nature, simple and comfortable venue, uncomplicated concepts and practices
  • Discuss the foundations of Intuition that you can replicate at home and in everyday moments.
  • Explore your unique Intuitive Style to make right decisions for YOU, resulting in greater ease, confidence and fulfillment.
  • Attune to your body to reduce stress, avoid illness, gain insight and maximize your daily energy as needed.
  • Practice being in a relaxed yet alert state—to help you be successful in whatever endeavor you choose to focus on.
  • Meet other mindful, aware people from the Denver area so you can expand your network of interesting people who are committed to expanding their success, ease, confidence and fulfillment in a new way.

Is this for you?

This retreat is for conscious men and women who:

  • Are ready to explore the life-changing potential of intuition. Whether decision-making, shifting your career path, or deepening relationships, there’s no area that intuition can’t positively impact
  • Want to “unplug” for a couple days and tap into a sense of peace that integrates mind, body, spirit (which renews motivation and your creative, problem-solving mind.)
  • Yearn for simplicity and love the idea of being in nature in a “camp” environment to boost your energy and optimism.
  • Are open to utilizing yoga as a tool for mindfulness, something that comes in handy in relationships or business meetings. (No yoga experience required.)
  • Whether beginners OR veterans of intuition, are willing to invoke a “beginner’s mind”- of curiosity, openness, willingness to consider new ideas/ possibilities. New possibilities, new outcomes.
  • Have a desire to share ideas and collaborate with others as well as have reflective solo time. There's something powerful about community as well as big picture thinking about life...
  • Feel ready to press the “reset”/”refresh” button in one or more areas of life and can’t wait to get started! You simply KNOW when it's time.

Please note: This retreat is limited to 20 people to ensure a personalized and connected experience. Registration closes on Tuesday July 17th, 5pm.

FAQs
Why I chose Ponderosa Retreat Center:

  1. Proximity to Denver—it is so easy and quick to get there! (50 minutes from Denver!)
  2. Its beauty—the region, camp, views are all stunning (and will be cooler than Denver in July!)
  3. The simplicity—it has a wonderful “camp” feel. The accommodations are simple yet comfortable which allows us to really experience our true selves and nature. Also I decided on a venue where the food is provided so that we can maximize our retreat time without having to prep, cook and cleanup—it just seemed like a good fit with the simplicity theme.
  4. It is a fabulous low-tech environment. Though there is Wi-Fi if you must, I highly recommend “unplugging” for the entire two days that you are on retreat to allow for greater mental stillness.

 

What sorts of activities will we do?
Potential activities include: yoga (open to all levels), mindfulness practice- whether moving or meditative and still, reflective and intuitive journaling practices, interactive group discussions, partner work- sharing insights and practicing intuitive exercises, grounding and centering exercises (that you can do anytime, anywhere), as well as free time to reflect, nap or explore. Weather permitting we’ll enjoy a campfire too! Enjoy a hike on nearby trails, wander the open fields, lounge under a pine tree in the breeze, or sit around a campfire and revel in “summer.” So many ways to revitalize the Soul!

 

What about Meals?
Mealtimes are 7:30am, 12pm and 5:30pm. All meals are included in your tuition and provided by Ponderosa Retreat Center. They offer a terrific salad bar to accompany both lunch and dinner. I'll be providing healthy snacks mid-morning and mid-afternoon during our retreat.

If you wish to supplement meals or you have special dietary needs, you are welcome to bring additional food and store it in the dormitory fridge. There are microwaves for reheating in the dining hall. (I have loads of food allergies so I’ll probably bring some extra breakfast foods, my own salad dressing and some extra protein to fill in any gaps.) The chef is health-minded and will do his best to accommodate food allergies, though at any given time there may be up to 300 guests on site.  NOTE: Be sure to list your dietary needs/ allergies on the online registration form.

 

Who’s leading this Retreat?
Robin Peglow Berg is the leader of this interactive and experiential Soul and Intuition Retreat. Intuition has been one of Robin’s passions and a point of study for 20 years. Robin has been a Success and Life Coach and a yoga instructor to hundreds of people for over 11 years.

This retreat is the merging of her passions—nature, intuition, self-transformation, yoga, and community. Have you ever taken a workshop in someone’s area(s) of passion? Powerful. You won’t want to miss it.
