“The Online Retreat is an inspiration. For anyone dealing with the physical, emotional and hormonal changes that life brings us, you certainly put the whole process into an eloquent light. And, it's motivating! Don't we all know how easy it is to get caught up in the daily grind and develop tunnel vision and lose that self-nurturing desire or even the energy to self-nurture. I realize

I have a long way to go in that department, but you and your retreat have at least given me a direction!”

“Even though I've done a lot of research, I was not aware of some of the remedies to help relieve symptoms. Now, I am feeling much better about when I react to stress.  It is a relief to know that I am not hysterical or crazy. 

I can see now that my hormones have been out of balance for awhile.”
