Past Retreats

"I was recently diagnosed with depression was told that it’s something I may have had since childhood. I think it had become a part of my personality that it went undetected for so many years. When life threw other challenges, that’s when just getting through the day got extremely hard and I was told I needed therapy and anti depressants. I’m SO glad that I got in touch with Anita, who not only provided excellent support right away, but also urged me to attend the retreat. It was absolutely an incredible experience to receive such a variety of help including theta healing, unblocking my chakras, EFT, meditation, a variety of journaling exercises that brought me in touch with my core, and helped me to heal almost instantaneously.    The therapists were absolutely genuine, caring and skilled, and continued to follow up after the retreat if I needed more support. The retreat was a game changer in helping me with my mental illness and past emotional issues.  I would highly recommend the retreat and help offered by Anita, Elizabeth, Jo-Ella and Nazia to anyone who is ready to heal." - R.M. 

"I’m so fortunate to have been a part of the retreat. It has helped me in several ways by making me realize I’m very fortunate for the life I have, and I should learn to be grateful and not complain about little things. It has also made me realize I need to be the change I want to see in others. Learning how to do grounding meditation has helped me with having a better day as I’m not as on the edge. I loved and have tried EFT. Please learn this as it’s an excellent tool. The location right by the beach couldn’t be better. We meditated at the beach, did yoga, sang songs, played musical instruments and primarily just let loose." - Z.M.

"Thank you Anita and your team for an amazing retreat. The tools we learned will be with us forever. Let the journey begin." - S.M. 

 "What an amazing experience! This retreat was everything that I didn't know I needed. Anita and Elizabeth worked tirelessly to bring together a truly exceptional, healing and affirming experience. From the amazing accommodations, fresh cooked meals three times a day, to the beautiful beach activities, this retreat came together in such a synchronous and harmonious way, that it left all of us - who started as strangers - feeling connected, peaceful, and like we had known each other forever." - A.R. 

"This was such an amazing retreat. The experience is something that will continue to enrich my life. I never knew the power of healing and gratitude until I attended this retreat with some amazing women, some of whom I had never met before. This experience has changed my outlook and perspective towards life. Thank you so much Anita and her staff. I would totally recommend this experience to all out there." - N. M.

"This retreat truly changed my life. I was overworked, overwhelmed and exhausted. Going through the exercises allowed me to gain perspective on my life and gave me the impetus to change my toxic work situation. I am practicing the tools of the program and excited to see where my spiritual journey takes me. I’m so grateful to Anita and her amazing team for providing a transformational experience! Amazing and trans formative weekend. Thank you." - K.M.  

The experience that changed my life for the better was going to this women's retreat.  I can’t change the past so why deal with it right? Turns out that was not productive. I was impressed with the various types of healing modalities that Anita and her team used to address my physical, mental, and spiritual health. Anita, Elizabeth, Joella and Nazia with the regression, meditation and tapping sessions dredged up and released all the anger, fear and frustration in me, leaving me feeling like I am walking on air. She has a true gift as a healer and she has helped me make key corrections in my life. I learned how to understand and process my emotions, the way I can see life and how to meditate. I learned tools at this retreat that i can now use to continue healing daily. People said that I look different after the retreat and I feel amazing. She has really impacted my life. Also she sent me home with tools to continue the healing in her absence and she checks in from time to time which, I think, is super kind!   As you can see, I am very pleased with Anita and my gratitude overflows.  I will never forget her! Highly recommended everyone to go to this retreat. It will change your life for good! - L.J.

"The retreat was an amazing, trans-formative experience and I gained tools to help control my emotions. I  feel rejuvenated and more at peace. I am starting to enjoy life again. I am grateful and blessed to have been part of this Retreat. I really enjoyed this retreat and would definitely go again due to Anita and her wonderful staff with their talents and skills helped provide this life changing experience for me.    

Thank you Anita, love you❤️🙏" - K. K. 

"Feels like forever that I actually did something for myself. I booked this retreat back in November, it was just meant to happen...I confirmed my attendance and booked my flight all within an hour. I was on the schedule to work that weekend but was able to find coverage almost immediately (which never happens). Fast forward to the retreat, I was nervous. I didn't know what to expect and was pleasantly surprised. I was greeted with smiles and open arms. Everyone at the retreat was fighting a battle...some shared, some didn't but everyone received the benefits from being there. We all need to take some time to just reflect and understand things that happen in our lives. Simply putting a band aid just ensures that you'll be dealing with it at some level forever. However, by finding ways to write it out by journaling or utilizing tapping techniques or learning to meditate we give ourselves the tools needed to successfully go through life without feeling anxious or depressed. I needed this retreat...I needed this time for myself and am forever grateful to Anita for organizing this." - S.A.

"Thank you so much Anita and her staff for such an awesome experience. May God bless you richly and continue to open doors for you to impact women." - L.J. 

"This was a great experience. Highly recommended at least once if not more in your lifetime." - M.T. 

"The Sacred Space Women's Retreat was a life changing event.
