Reflection and Recreation Retreat 2022

ennith James Scott, HeartMath certified NeuroChangeSolutions and transformation coaching consultant, is bringing the work of researcher, bestselling author and international lecturer Dr. Joe Dispenza to Nature, a Michigan Retreat, from October 9 through 13. Scott says, “With so many external stressors in our environment, many of us have normalized stress and even become addicted to the hormones of stress. This retreat will give individuals the environment and space for rest and repair, and will equip them with knowledge and practical tools to go out and be greater than the conditions in their environment. They will learn how to condition the body to respond differently in the same environment. Learning to self-regulate our own mental and emotional states is the single greatest gift we can give ourselves, especially in these tense times.” Practical tools for the recreation of themselves and ultimately their lives will be shared and practiced with time for integration throughout the retreat, which will also include elective activities such as yoga, drumming meditation and plenty of time and resources to explore nature. Cost is $648 to $888. Camping is optional. Location: 2988 West Burdickville Rd.,Maple City. Register at Tinyurl.com/DispenzaRetreat. See ad page 11.

Each handcrafted bracelet features an Earth Bead that contains earth elements collected from the shorelines of East and West Bay in four sizes. Owners Erik Akerley and Raquel Rieck say, “After having our Great Lakes collection, we decided to expand and introduce our States collection. We wanted everyone to be able to carry a piece of their favorite places with them wherever they went.

Cannabidiol (CBD), is a non-psychotropic chemical compound found in the hemp plant.
