The Self-Connection REACHtreat
The Self-connection REACHtreat is an opportunity to deepen your connection to your Self and learn ways of being rooted in the resources, strengths and love that exist within you.
What is a REACHtreat? The Self-Connection experience does not fit neatly into the box of retreat or workshop so I invented the word “REACHtreat” to capture the idea of challenging and often times painful growth (i.e., reaching forth positively) that occurs in workshops and treat, which is the incorporation of many yummy aspects of life: play, dance, music, food, connection, fun and relaxation.

“All of the thoughtful ways Tim and Simone facilitated, supported and contained the group through a very well thought out itinerary. There were so many gifts given and received and I’m so thankful for the experience. It changed my life.”
This reachtreat is for those looking to grow more presence, groundedness, joy, peace and love for themselves and others.
The Self-Connection workshop is a good fit for people looking for personal and professional growth and:
Would like to explore and learn more about who they are and connect deeply to themselves
Have feelings of not being good enough and wish to genuinely value themselves
Experiencing burnout in various roles in their life and wish to connect to greater energy and vitality in life
Are wanting to get unstuck from unhealthy/unhelpful coping patterns in life
Would like to overcome and transform difficult emotions and/or relationship challenges
What is Self-Connection?
Self-connection is the process of being in touch with your core Self, without identifying or confusing Self with the experience that is occurring. Often times we confuse our Self with our feelings, roles, perceptions, expectations, and relationships. We will explore the unique Self that lives within you. The Self is the life force that lives within each of us; it is consciousness.
The seed of Self has a unique expression in each person and our primary drive is to manifest and form this unique expression. Vitality, power, and authenticity can be felt when we are rooted in the Self and acceptance of the experience that is occurring. By engaging with what is, while simultaneously rooting in the Self, the Self emerges more fully. Being connected with our Self, we can engage in the learning process through whatever challenging experience is occurring or has occurred.
