Surrendering… something I wasn’t good at. Most type A people aren’t. We want to take charge; get it done; make it happen!
But what I’ve noticed during this 6 week excursion in Italy is the most special memories were made when I surrendered. The most spectacular experiences occurred when I RELAXED my mind, got quiet and just released control.
These entire 6 weeks have been about “letting go” and “allowing”. When I did that, I met amazing people who befriended me in Malta and Rome. I walked into a building asking for directions to the Museum I was looking for only to find I was standing in that very museum! I ate the most delicious Italian dish after ordering the wrong item on the menu! Getting lost dozens of times, which caused me to discover an incredibly unique “Cat Shelter” with hundreds of cats you could pick up and play with!
All the things that seemed to “go wrong” were really the most special experiences… WHEN I CHOSE TO SURRENDER and just RELAX INTO THE SITUATION.
In fact, this reoccurring theme has the most profound creation! I have decided to expand my business and offer 6 Day Meditation and Manifestation Retreats here in Tuscany!
I’m heading over to the Villa Lucia, a Yoga Retreat Center here in Tuscany to meet with Lucy, the owner of this magnificent place! She will help me create the entire Retreat.
I’ll still have my Mastermind Retreats (in fact, the next one is in Bali in October!) But I realize it’s now time to also offer Meditation and Manifestation Retreats to help people TAP INTO THE SPIRITUAL part of themselves and create even more meaning, joy and purpose in their lives!
And what a perfect place to plan these Retreats! I’m staying in a castle overlooking the Tuscan Wine Country! I’ve posted pictures on my Facebook page. You can check them out by visiting my website and then clicking on the FB icon. Go to: www.Rx-Success.com
