About This Retreat
Why attend this Retreat?
If we could pin-point the single biggest reason why so many of us feel so lost, anxious and unhappy, it would be this: we don’t make time to focus on healing ourselves.
For entirely understandable and hugely noble reasons, all our time and energy is given over to others – to our boss, our friends, our partner, our children – leaving us no opportunity to attend to the emotional wounds and psychological scars we have carried with us for so long.
And so, before we know it, another month, year or decade has slipped by…and we’re still stuck in the same unhappy place we always were.
That’s why we created our Therapeutic Retreats. Our Retreats provide a unique opportunity to escape the rhythms and pressures of everyday life and spend a few days focusing solely on our own healing and growth.
With the support and guidance of our psychotherapy team, and in the company of like-minded fellow participants, you’ll discover a holistic approach to emotional health and mental wellbeing. Our 4- or 5-day International Residential Retreats are nothing less than the ultimate way to care for yourself – and, by implication, all those who love and depend on you.
This Retreat is for you if…
You want our ultimate luxury experience: a chance to relax and recuperate in the warmth and beauty of the Mediterranean.
You’ll walk away with…
A release from your struggles, a reimagined perspective on your potential, and a sense of self-acceptance and optimism that lingers long into the future.
What To Expect
You’ll work with The School of Life Psychotherapy team and take part in a variety of experiences – therapeutic groups, journaling, art therapy, music therapy, dance and movement therapy, writing therapy, and EMDR.
