We need

Tuesday, August 16th, 2011

A few times a year I get to personally spend time with a small group of women to my own favorite get-away –The tropical Island of Puerto Rico. Like shedding a thick skin, I let it all go-cell phone, board meetings, problem solving, family challenges. Now it’s time for you.
A retreat can bring us any kind of nurturing, pampering or adventure we need to return home renewed.

A retreat is an opportunity for women to go for what they want – some want to push the enveope, some want to lay back and do nthing. The tropical island of Puerto Rico brings something fresh out of us. Your surrounded with so much oveliness that it seeps into your soul because what you lay your eyes on takes your breath away. Surrounded by so much outer beauty I love creating more inner beauty, getting the soul tuned up and taking care of one self.

Retreats are an opportunity to open our hearts and minds to new possibilities – any dream we can imagine. On your island retreat we learn what it takes to enjoy our lives, to live _la vida_ – the sweet life. In a retreat that includes workshop we’re learning to break free from old mindsets, unravel tight places, and create a life we love, while all around us the air smells like the sea and tropical flowers.

I especially enjoy the women-only space of a retreat. There’s a deep connection in spending time with a group of like-minded women – eating and sharing a glass of local wine. The sampling of international and Caribbean cuisine draw us into the cafes. The beach winds us like ribbons down it’s sandy path laughing and talking as we go. It’s been said that when women connect with each ther, they create more sertonin – a neurtransmitter that give us a feeling of well-being.

After a soul-satisfying adventure, you return from my little island paradise soaked with love. In the tropics your breath slows down, body relaxes, heart expands. You remember who you are. You return recharged, the stresses of the year washed away. The daily chores, standing at your kitchen sink or writing at your desk, are not so mundane now. A satisfying personal retreat leaves you appreciating your life here and now. Your seeing through fresh eyes and smelling through fresh nostrils.

Inspiration, strategies and support from a pioneering Life and Executive Coach (me!), DEZ BARTELT._

I devote myself to providing women with powerful and trans-formative events like Best of Both Mind and Body. I love the opportunity to share my years of coaching, strategies and support with you, in person, for five amazing retreat days. Because, I know you are busy, dedicated to your commitments and torn in many directions, we have tailored this event to be packed with powerful content, at a very reasonable price.

So that you will have a very clear picture of what you’ll experience and receive as part of Women’s Best of Both Mind and Body, here’s a detailed overview of the day:

You’ll have time to connect with other women and gain new ideas, support and encouragement so you can make the leap forward into the life you know is inside you.

You will have interactive experiences to celebrate where you’ve been and to explore the next steps toward what you really want in your life. (Rest assured, you will never be called on or forced to speak if you don’t want to.)

  • Attending would stress your family finances to the breaking point.
  • YOU HAVE A HARD TIME BEING PRESENT FOR OTHER WOMEN, LISTENING, SHARING, OR CHEERING ON OTHERS’ SUCCESSES.
  • You don’t believe you deserve a retreat like this.
  • YOU DON’T SEE THE VALUE OF INVESTING IN YOUR OWN GROWTH OR WELL-BEING.
  • You don’t believe that joy, excitement, connection and friendship can go hand-in-hand with learning and growth.
  • YOU DON’T PARTICULARLY ENJOY CONNECTING WITH NEW WOMEN, MAKING NEW FRIENDS AND CONTACTS.

…excited and even a little tingly about what to expect, this could be just the BIG ticket for you to take the next leap forward in your life!

…if only you could get the inspiration, strategies and support to bring our the passion within you and fully live of your dreams?

Dear amazing women:

In all my years coaching women, I have never met a woman who didn’t, somewhere in her deepest depths, have the spark of a great idea or a longing within herself that she wanted to share with her family, her community, the world.

That’s why several years ago I started to introduce and connect the fabulous women I knew and worked with so they could meet each other and learn how “isolation is the dream-killer.”

In these gatherings they could find and share what they were about and receive the support and inspiration they needed to go after their dreams.

This season, we are kicking off our Best of Both Mind and Body for Women Retreats in Puerto Rico, an exotic hideaway with miles of white sandy beaches and you are invited!

I’d personally love to meet you and hope you’ll CONSIDER JOINING US STARTING ON OCTOBER 7TH FOR A 5 NIGHT 6 DAYS MIND AND BODY RETREAT to learn how you too can live the life of your dreams!
