RETREAT

This weekend I had the pleasure of being able to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and to relax, recharge and reconnect all within the beautiful surroundings of nature. 

Mother Nature was on our side this weekend and gave us glorious weather with warm sunshine, stunning clear skies and incredible views of the stars.  There is something about nature and the peace and quiet that comes with it that can truly jump start your heart, soul, body and mind and put you right back on the path you need to be on.  No confusion, no overthinking, no rushing around, no loud city noise – just you, your loved ones and the beauty that is felt within each moment all with a stunning backdrop.  For someone that isn’t usually a fan of cooler temperatures and any season other than summer this weekend made me fall in love with fall and all the colourful beauty it brings along with it. 

We had the chance to rest, laugh, breathe and just forget about everything and anything for just a little while and I am so appreciative of that.  You don’t realize how much you need it until you actually stop for a second and do it.  I felt alive again, a little less anxious and very much at peace.  Something I struggle to find on most days but here it was, and I was soaking up every moment of it.  It was a little slice of heaven if only just for a few days, but I will gladly take it.

Thank you to my cousin for offering up your little hideaway and thank you to my company for making it even more special. 

Now who else is ready to slay this next week?
