Re-treat yourself
IN THE MOUNTAINS OF SOUTH FRANCE
In a world where everything is moving faster and faster, it seems like you have to be always on, always creative, always sharp, always ready with the next idea. You have talent and passion, but the speed and pressure of life can cause you to get ahead of yourself. While you have to meet so many different demands, it can be hard to put your own needs first at the centre.
Turn The Tables offers a five-day Retreat in the mountains of southern France, tailored to your needs.
Here you will have the space to regain your breath, without distractions. No pressure to perform, just time to reflect on what really gives you energy. And no, taking time for yourself is not a luxury, it is essential to flourish (again)
Relax, Reflect, Recharge
From personal experience I, Claudia Kafoe, know how important it is to sometimes take a big step back and other times a smaller one. Reflection and rest are not only necessary for your personal growth, but also help you look at your life and work with fresh eyes. At Turn The Tables, we believe that you can only truly flourish, both in your work and private life, if you take good care of yourself.
So whether you're looking for space in your head, feel the need to be taken care of, or want to think about the next step in your (work) life: at the estate of Le Rêve de Gaïa, you will find the silence and space you need, a place where minimalism and eco-living come together.
Feel free to send me an email. I can imagine you'd like to get to know me first before you book your Solo Retreat.
