I am delighted to hear all of that, Freda! I suspect this week has been transformational for you in many ways. The setting itself looks so inviting and healing. Would love to hear about the "food" too..(no surprise!)

3 juices and 1 soup per day and no-one felt hungry!

Dear Freda, I have read your 'blog' for over two years. I send my 'Thanks' to you. You are an inspirational lady who shall probably never know how many folks you have helped along their life's path. I felt it was correct of me to offer my gratitude to you and Bright Blessings go with you. Patricia

Yay for all those things! And great scenery. Nutrition in particular has made a huge difference to me over the last few years. I know what a difference doing something like that can make and those sorts of profound changes usually stay with you. What an uplifting start to the year. :-)

Really glad to hear that you gained so much from your retreat Freda. At a similar week sometime ago I was encouraged to think of the time as self nourishing rather than self indulgent as I had "guiltily" been branding it. That shift in mindset has been great for me and in fact has led me to blogs such as yours!! I really enjoy your photos and words. Thank you for your nourishing words and photos .....

Thank you for your comment Gillie and I do take your point about self-nourishing rather than self-indulgent!

I am happy to hear that you are happier.
I tried a d.i.y magnesium salts bath because I saw it offered at the retreat and whilst I didn't wake less often, I did sleep later and that was a huge improvement.

Magnesium oil that you spray on your skin is also brilliant Lucille. The 'Better You' one is a good brand. (If it stings or tingles at first it's an indication that your magnesium levels are low.)

And dry skin brushing to wake me up again in the morning is working too!
