ReDefining Education
RETREAT and WORKSHOP

When children are allowed and invited to explore openly the magnitude of their true self, opportunities for self-created learning will present themselves naturally. When parents tap into their own brilliance, creating an environment favorable for children to initiate their growth from their own natural rhythm and flow, authentic motivations and inspirations spark. As human beings, we are curious in nature and the desire to grow and learn is innate in all of us. When initiated and engaged by the children, learning happens at quantum speed, and joy and meaning are constants in the process.

This retreat and workshop is an invitation for parents and children interested in exploring how they can redefine education for themselves by connecting with their true self and inner creativity. Through the power of the arts and the elements in nature, along with ancient wisdom and cutting edge science, you will be invited to discover resourceful, exciting, and life changing ways to inspire, learn, and connect with each other.

Parents, you will be invited to:

-see your own brilliance, follow your inner guidance, and find how you can engage from that place of wisdom and love with your children
-consider moving from being externally referenced to internally referenced
-let go of old patterns and habits that are no longer serving you in interacting with your children and create new patterns that promote natural learning and wellbeing
-find ways to remain resourceful in daily situations
- discover how to create huge amount of space for life and learning to unfold.

Children, you will be invited to:

-be 100% yourself and find out how resourceful and magnificent your are
-discover how to know and trust your true self and follow your intuition
-learn, through your experience of the elements in nature and through art, how we are all connected and all unique.
-find ways to express what you have to say, create what you desire and discover your own unique talents.
-have fun with all aspect of learning.
