Rediscovering Your Self: Finding Joy & Passion in the Second Half of Life
A Two-Day Retreat with Karen Ely
September 8 & 9, 2007
Held at the Sedona Creative Life Center in Sedona, Arizona
Join author, entrepreneur and late-in-life adventurer, Karen Ely, and other extraordinary women for two days of fun, quiet introspection, insightful exercises and life-changing opportunities.

Karen believes that in today's hectic time-starved world it becomes even more important to find time for renewal, time to step back and assess where we've come from and who we are after a lifetime of being everything to everybody. A space to dream. A space to let go of all the wouldas, shouldas and couldas in order to make room for a new way of being, one that's firmly based in our authentic selves, one filled with joy and passion.

Daring to Dream: Reflections on the Year I Found Myself is Karen's personal story of rebirth following the end of her 32-year marriage, of coming to grips with a life that she could no longer live and walking toward a self that she no longer knew. And eventually discovering that she had the strength, power and wisdom to grow from life's challenges. Throughout the weekend, Karen will be sharing her personal story and the tools that supported her on a magical journey back to herself.

Through large and small group exercises, quiet, music, joyful playing, and journaling, Karen will guide participants through an exploration back to themselves. Throughout the two days women will spend time in silence and joy, eat chocolate mindfully, connect deeply with themselves, make new friends and leave with a passion and plan for the rest of their lives.
