Unconditionally Loving Retreat
San Jose, CA ♦︎ November 1-4, 2024
An opportunity to have a powerful life-transformation experience!
Loving retreats are designed to give you an experience of feeling very understood and connected. It’s literally life-changing to feel loved and accepted by someone who doesn’t need anything from you! Not only do the facilitators shower you with love, but you’ll also draw closer to the other participants. Life long friendships are often created at retreats – providing you with additional support through the challenges of life.
During the retreat we will focus on whatever challenges are “up” for you, whether it’s relationships, parenting, work, or feeling overall unhappy in your life. There will be plenty of time for individualized work for everyone. None of us can ever get “too much” unconditional love. Even if you’ve been to retreats in the past, we believe that all of us need new infusions of love consistently!
Our loving retreats offer 2 full days of time together – beginning with a Friday night group, and continuing all day Saturday and Sunday. Experienced life coaches will spend time working with participants 1:1 in a group setting and in private sessions on whatever challenges are getting in the way of your happiness and peace. Join us if you’re ready to take your healing to the next level and feel loved like no other time in your life ❤️

LODGING
We have rented a lovely, large Airbnb home in San Jose, CA. The house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood and is comfortably furnished. Most participants will share bedrooms; a private room may be available by request at an additional cost. There are 3 bathrooms to share. Linens and towels are provided.
The house includes a fully furnished kitchen, and participants are welcome to bring groceries and prepare their own food. There are grocery stores and restaurants nearby.
TRAVEL
The closest airport is San Jose International Airport (SJC). From there, the car ride to our house is about 15 minutes during non-commute hours. Uber/Lyft are good options, or you can arrange for ride sharing with fellow participants.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Refunds of the registration fee for cancellations are only possible prior to September 30, 2024 and are done at the discretion of the retreat organizers. Due to the necessity of renting a large Airbnb home for the retreat location and the expense associated with that, cancellations will not be refunded after September 30, 2024. If an emergency arises, the organizers will work with you to try to find a new participant to fill your reserved spot.
