Noon – 1:00 p.m. Check-out and departure Program and Activity Descriptions Envision Your Life Dr. Joan King leads this fundamental, interactive seminar to discover and/or nurture your purpose and passion in life. By exploring what makes us thrive, what gives us energy and passion we begin envisioning a life fulfilled by purpose and passion. Rafting/kayaking It has been said that one never steps in the same river twice. It is true of our daily lives as well, each one new and filled with opportunities and challenges. With the Colorado River and Timberline Tours guiding us, we will explore the metaphor of the River as Life’s Journey on one of the most scenic stretches of the river. As a river flows, so does our life – ever-changing and with surprises around every bend. Overcoming fears, embracing adventure and play, learning to balance, going with the flow, scouting life’s rapids, and knowing when to rest are all part of this journey. Rock Climbing We all run into walls in our life. How do we approach such an obstacle? This climbing excursion, led by Adventure Travel Guides International, offers an approach that involves understanding the nature of the wall, working out its intricacies and challenges, and then discerning a strategy for triumphing over it one hand-hold and foot-hold at a time. Critical thinking, overcoming emotion and fear, developing a strategy, and teamwork make climbing an empowering metaphor for overcoming obstacles in our life. Healing through Horses Renowned Gestalt Equine facilitator and founder of Touched by a Horse, Melisa Pearce, uses horses to help emotionally heal humans. Horses can teach us to understand our emotions and intuition in a new way, and can show us how to move from fear to trust. Authenticity is a major focus of this work. All of this is done through groundwork, not through riding, so no horse experience is needed to reap the benefits. Women’s Inner Wisdom Two workshops, held on the banks of spectacular Gore Creek, teach the synergy between nurturing oneself and others, offering tools for quick rejuvenation and long-term self-care and empowerment. Awareness of our emotional state and learning to choose our responses gives us the power to understand and embrace our emotional self. Women will learn herbal therapy, chakras, journaling, grounding, communication, discernment and emotional stress relief skills. Hiking and Nature Photography Step into the wilderness, walk a path through the forest; come to a fork in the path, step over roots and rocks to solitude. Recognize that each foot forward shapes the journey, and delivers you closer to yourself, your dreams. With the expert guidance of Trailwise Guides, Inc., explore Vail's scenic backcountry, deepen your connection with the natural world, feel the pulse of your heart, awaken your breath to freshness and vitality, enliven your soul, and illuminate nature's role as a resource. Nature photography will be incorporated into this journey. Discovering the benefits of a day out in nature opens your heart to your personal path, identifies the steps needed for walking back into the wilderness we call "home". All ability levels are invited to participate in this journey. Trailwise Guides, Inc. operates under a special use permit by the White River and San Isabel National Forest and by the Bureau of Land Management. Trailwise Guides, Inc. is an equal opportunity provider. Next Steps Seminar Take the “Aha!” moments forward! Dr. Joan King wraps up the workshop with an inspiring, supportive seminar to help women integrate all they have learned. No matter where we live, work or play, maintaining momentum is critical for shifting our lives in the direction we want to go. Now that you have awakened your brilliance, it’s time to let yourself shine! For more information, contact: Susie Kincade, susie@womenempower.us, 877-595-8622. Register at www.womenempower.us.
