Sacred Pause - A Retreat with Jennifer Louden



Facilitated by Jennifer Louden July 16 – 18, 2004

Sacred Pause: A Time for Deep Listening

Are you ready to create with ease and joy--in your life and in your work? Do you wish you could find a simple way to balance your life from the inside out? Do you yearn to be gentle with yourself and savor your life more?

Join best-selling author, coach, and gifted facilitator Jennifer Louden and a community of like-minded women for a weekend of deep nurturing. Or as the Comfort Queen says, "This is about a whole lot more than bubble baths and chocolate." Come reconnect with the divine spark of your feminine creativity; come receive perspective on the life you are creating; come listen for the question of your life; come to stop, feel, and rest.

We'll explore these and more
questions in our time together:

Jennifer Louden


~	What is the sacred question of my life right now?

~	Who am I called to be?

~	Will I choose to be the person I am called to be?

~	If all of life is a meditation, what am I meditating on?

~	Am I allowing myself to be fed?

~	When is the last time I let go and invited ecstasy in?

~	What does it mean, for me, to live by the will of God/Spirit/Higher Power?

Join us in contemplating these and other sacred questions—through silence, journal writing, circle time, guided meditation, alone time in nature, nurturing food, and above all, by stopping and listening.

"When Jennifer facilitates, she creates a haven of safety and total acceptance interlaced with humor and insight. In this sanctuary, I become brave and honest as I aspire to heights I've always known I can achieve." ~ Jennifer Elwell Comeau

The intention of this retreat is not to change anything about you or your life. Rather, it is to re-remember and burnish what you already know and to allow your own inner wisdom to blossom forth, perhaps in the form of a question, perhaps in the form of a quiet knowing in your belly—either way, this wisdom can show you what you need more of, what you need less of, and what is the next for you in creating your divine life.

Who Should Attend:

~	Women who need to pause, listen, rest, find and explore their sacred question.

~	Women in the beginning, middle or end of a transition.

~	Women who are stuck—in life, creative projects, a rut.

~	Women who want to rejoice in being in their bodies.

~	Women who are looking for a new perspective on an issue, relationship, decision.

"Jennifer is such an inspiration. Her sincerity and genuine concern for the workshop participants is obvious. Her sessions are lively and entertaining and filled with valuable information. I only regret that I cannot attend each and every one of her events." ~ Jane Cowart

"No superlatives can begin to capture how much the recent retreat meant to me. THANK YOU!! It brought me back into balance that had been seriously missing in my life. It gave me a window of hope that I can enjoy life.... I had been wondering for some time what was the use of living. I cannot say enough good about this experience. for me it was the perfect retreat in the perfect place at the perfect time." ~ Maureen

"The Sacred Pause retreat was the best Valentine's gift I ever had... that's probably because no one knows how to romance me like me! Mwah! Oh how I love myself.... And Jennifer, I have to say, with maybe the exception of SARK, I have never met a self-help, motivational, or non-fiction author who is personable in real life. These authors' books are usually fantastic, life-inspiring, and motivational, but the authors usually end up being drained from their 18th book tour, or inaccessible, or just plain detached from both their material and their audience. However, Jennifer is none of these things. She is personable, accessible, exuberant, joyful, centered, and balanced. And she's funny. Who've thunk it?" ~ Pamela

"What did I get? An unexpected new approach to life! I've always sought THE ANSWERS. At this retreat, thoughts, people, and openness converged to give me a new process and approach. I actually GOT my question: How can I feed my creative soul and teach and encourage women? But, of course, I wanted THE ANSWER, because I always have! Funny thing was, I was thrilled to have a question that I thought hit my yearnings so fully... And I am amazed at how quickly Jennifer creates such a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment. That circle sets the tone for the entire retreat, and it is the secure foundation that we all recognize and rely on for the rest of our time together." ~ Linda
