Inspiring Weekend in the Beacons

Enjoy a life changing weekend retreat with us in the beautiful surroundings of Coleg Trefeca!

9-11 November 2018

Get away from the business of life and spend some time on yourself living the authentic life, accepting yourself warts and all and being fully human.

One of the biggest challenges we face is to live in the “now”. Too often guilt and shame from the past and anxiety for the future can leave us stuck in the present – physically, spiritually and emotionally – and unable to be spontaneous and true to nature. This retreat is about learning acceptance and ways of living in forgiveness and harmony with ourselves and others, putting the past behind you and living in the present. Our prayer is that this weekend is another landmark and stepping stone in your life’s journey. It will be inspirational, challenging and the utmost in fine fellowship.

“This retreat gave me hope and courage to face myself – in getting away from the busy life I lead, to deal with the truth of my past, being in a safe place with like minded people has set me free from the confusion and helped me to forgive” 

“My world is not such a dark place as I know I am no longer alone – I now understand the recovery programme for myself and able to experience the freedom it promises”

Our objectives are as follows:

• To create an environment to promote recovery and healing from alcoholism and other addictive illnesses and harmful behaviours for the sufferer, their families and friends;

• To help identify the issues that prevent people from living life to the fullest;

• To create positive lifestyles through personal responsibility and the release of emotional baggage.

You can enjoy:

• Inspirational speakers to motivate and inspire;

• Study of recovery principles using the AA 12 step programme of recovery and the LIVING ROOM 6 Stages of Recovery with reflections on other spiritual and recovery resources;

• Workshops / group work / one-to-one on the theme of the weekend;

• Time for personal reflection, Guided meditation, relaxing and rest times.

• Ensuite rooms in the newly renovated College complex.

Cost for the weekend:

£180 - including accommodation, all meals, tea and coffee throughout the weekend and study resource material.
