Accessing Your Inner Mountain of Courage, Intuition and Resilience
August 8-12, 2020
A Summer Retreat at the Foot of Mont Blanc in Chamonix, France
A Remarkable Opportunity to Develop Resilience, Courage & Confidence
We're being called upon to tap into our inner wisdom, our reserves of resilience, and to use our intuition to face the many challenges we may encounter both at work and in our personal lives. Julie Lewis and Debra Moffitt believe in and nurture the inner capacities and innate abilities of the people they work with. In this summer retreat, you'll be given opportunities to grow in self-confidence by discovering your strengths, defining your values, and experiencing yourself in the naturally powerful environment of Mont Blanc. Being at Mont Blanc is about "being on top of the world" while being in the world; getting clarity about higher perspectives and broader vision. It's a place to contemplate perfect timing and synchronicity and see next steps as well as gain courage and self-confidence through the vital connection with nature that brings people back to themselves. It's an invitation to step up and into a deeper awareness of your abilities and power.

Julie Lewis, an adventurer,resilience consultant and corporate facilitator, and Debra Moffitt, an award-winning author and intuitive, have come together to offer this unique experience.
Author, Professional Speaker, Accredited Resilience Consultant and Certified Stress Management Consultant, Julie Lewis says, "Combining resilience, courage, and confidence with your superpower of intuition makes a fabulous combination. Being in nature and away from the usual distractions is such a huge plus. It provides a way to reconnect to oneself, others, and nature. Take time out to listen to the messages from the mountains, relax in nature and reflect. We'll take walks in nature, and you're encouraged to eat healthy food." |
Award-winning Author and Intuitive Debra Moffitt says: "This year promises to be filled with challenges and miracles as the speed of change accelerates and many old institutions we thought were reliable, no longer work as expected. Looking at the past for how to move forward no longer works. We're in uncharted territory. But there's no need to worry. Intuition and inner guidance lead the way with ease and grace - when we learn to pay attention, trust the information we're receiving, and act on the guidance. Writing is one way to anchor intuitive insights and gain clarity."
