Amelia Island Retreat, January 2020
“This was my first retreat in my life. I went in somewhat skeptical as I am not one to delve deeply. I did the work and was amazingly surprised by what I got out of it. There are three areas in which I received direction, clarity, and release.
The first came from the guest speaker, Secily Wilson. It reaffirmed my belief in once again reaching out to an organization to tell my story. I had done it once before and the form would not submit. I did not follow up.
Second was the video “reading“ by Mitchell Osborne. There was at least one portion where I felt he was speaking directly to me. In a way, it gave me permission to let someone walk away from my life that was no longer healthy for me. I thought I was choosing the relationship that I wanted to have with her but this is in a way gave me permission to take it a little further.
Finally, on the last morning of the retreat, we had a morning yoga session. During that session were asked to write down an intention for 2020 or write down something that we wanted to release into the atmosphere. I chose to do both! After we did this we put our papers in a biodegradable box to throw them to the ocean. Judi chose me to throw it into the ocean. After I did that, I felt a huge weight off of my shoulders. I had released fear.
My 2020 intention was to achieve peace. It did not happen that day but rather two days later. Just as I was going to sleep, I felt such a sense of peace envelop me. I have not been sleeping well for several months. I am happy to say that I am sleeping very well these days.
If you have an opportunity to go on one of Judi’s retreats, be open to it as you may walk away with so much more than when you arrived”
“This weekend I was so fortunate to be a part of a retreat that was fun, challenging and encouraging. Was it easy - no - was it one of the best experiences ever - yes. When you reach deep down to connect with yourself and others it is work - but the best possible work. I have never ridden a horse on the beach, or kayaked down a wonderful intercostal stream. I have come home with new tools I have learned in this shared experience and new friends. I am amazed at Judi Warren Isaacson and the support and caring she gives to others. She is so inspiring, caring, and thoughtful. We were spoiled beyond belief. This weekend gave me tools to lead a better life for me and my family. Thank you!”
“Made some new friends this weekend at a woman’s retreat. We laughed we cried and we definitely drank lots of champs! Thank you, Judi, for an unforgettable time.”
“It was a great time, I was able to spoil myself with a great massage, nourish my body with excellent food that I didn’t have to prepare and to listen to a good message and new thoughts. Oh my gosh, and I rode fast in a Ferrari with the top down and the music blaring, thank you Bonnie, you only live once! And I came out with the assurance that I’m pretty okay and sometimes you just need fresh air and encouragement. And I know Louis Bokar and I have been in many rooms together and didn’t even know it! Thank you, Judi and Christine, for your positivity and support. It’s great to be fun!”
“Thank you, Judi Isaacson, for giving me the honor to inspire the beautiful ladies at your retreat to take a page out of your “playbook” and P.L.A.Y. (Plant the seed, Live inspired, take Action and Yearn for growth)! This is what January in Florida looks like! #FallintoFabulous2020”
“ I really had a great time! Loved everything about the retreat! I felt like I could truly leave everything at the door, not worry about home and everything else going on. I found the time very refreshing and uplifting! I was very impressed with the organization, the activities, your presentation and how thought invoking it was, and having a chef come in was top notch. I would love to go on another one!”
“Retreat was wonderful- opened me up to new ideas and thoughts. Couples retreat would be a great idea. I feel so much more empowered- even after 3 days! Judi - you are magic!!!”
