(This retreat is already just about half full!)
The site also has a new About page. And there are a few exciting details that will be a part of all retreats moving forward, including:
A kit for all the mixed-media workshops that will include everything you need to get messy with Kelly (she is coming up with quite a juicy list!)
AND
A take home self-care kit designed by me that will support you in continuing to create space for creativity and self-care when you return home. This kit will become a companion for you during the sometimes challenging re-entry experience after time away from your daily life.
(There will be a fourth retreat, Unearth, in the Fall of 2012 with Mindy Lacefield, Kelly Barton, and me. More details will be on the website early next year.)

Chief Grounding Officer Announcement
I am over the moon thrilled that Kelly Barton has signed on as my "Chief Grounding Officer" starting this Fall. After she taught at and helped me with several retreats, it became clear to me that all the retreat participants moving forward need to encounter her special combination of joyful, real, sparkling magic as part of their experience. It also became clear to me that I needed this kindred spirit with me on the journey as she simply and truly invites me to stay grounded. I am delighted to share that Kelly will be teaching mixed-media workshops at each retreat in 2012. And she will be bringing joyful laughter with her. There is just something about her spirit that invites others to feel comfortable inviting in joy. (Thank you my friend.)

Not sure these beyond amazing retreats will be able to be i my future in 2012 but I hope so. Do you ever do retreats in Monterey, CA area? Or would you ever?
I am over the moon thrilled for you! And for Kelly! And for all the retreat participants who will get to experience the two of you! I was really hoping that Pen & Paper was in my future, but if not that one, another one someday, for sure.
Love it! Chief Grounding Officer. that's so awesome. :) And that picture is so sweet...did you take it Liz?
i've been following your blog for a while now & dreaming of attending one of your retreats.
I live in Canada, so these are quite a distance, but i may attempt the PEN & PAPER one... it sounds absolutely magical.
btw, this photograph is gorgeous. i love the green tones & the gloves! Adorable. Thanks for sharing with the world. xoxo
