Does the idea of a personal retreat sound dreamy to you?
What a beautiful thing to take time away to renew, rest, or play. Or better yet, time to simply think and dream about new possibilities. Retreating is fabulous, but all the work required to get away, not so dreamy. Is it possible to retreat without having to clear your schedule, pack a bag, and travel far far away? 100 percent yes.
Spring is the perfect time to consider the season ahead. As the landscape around us prepares for blooming, this is your chance to take a moment for you heart. To get started, I collaborated with a few wise friends to share resources for a mini personal retreat. I hope all of these tools will encourage you to carve out some time for yourself and springtime refreshment.
Whether you are needing a rest, a moment to journal, or want to give yourself more space to listen to God, this is an invitation for a personal retreat just for you.

Ready to Retreat?
Quick! Go ahead and calendar some personal retreat time for yourself. If you are anything like me, it doesn't happen unless it's on the calendar. Even if it means scheduling 30 minutes simply to think and enjoy quiet, you are worthy of taking time for yourself.
When we take time to retreat, we are better able to hear the Father's dreams for our hearts.
