There was a lot of dreaming, planning and care that went into this event, and it was a really beautiful experience.
More than I could have asked for, really.
The women in my 9-month Love Your Body, Love Your Life program are real, they are deep, and they are so freaking courageous.
I was brought to tears in quite a few moments over our 2 shared days by the radical acts of kindness, acceptance and honesty. It’s not easy sometimes to really look at some of the things that don’t work that come with hanging onto body weight, emotional weight and spiritual weight.
The places that don’t work/haven’t worked are the exact places you must be able to go to come to a place of gentle weight loss on your terms, without punishment or fear. It takes some time, and it takes grit. It’s the last place most of us will look, and it’s the place that bears the most fruit.
Because of the highly personal nature of the weekend, I won’t share photos of the women, although we got an amazing few photos of the group- all 17 of us sitting on my sofa, with bright sunlight streaming in the windows, and the sound of laugher ringing in the air. It’s a treasured moment of mine.
What I will share with you is some of the AMAZING food we shared together.
We had a private chef (https://www.ingridcuisine.com), who took care of us, nourished us with color and beauty and made the weekend really very special.
My sweet dog Lulu was also happy to keep us company with her gentle presence throughout the retreat. After the blossoming, connection, laugher and tears, we all left looking forward to bright days ahead.
