YOUR NEW RETREAT PLACE - WHILEWOODS

Frequently Asked Questions
Not necessarily. We're happy to help you flush out a lesson plan. Essentially we help you curate your brilliance to bring out the best of your gold to share. Our methodology is about connection, bonding, synergy and thriving, and recognizing your gifts.
That's how we help others heal, and if you're interested in the retreat space and sharing what you know. I suspect what you bring is all in there. You may just need a little help flushing out how that translates into a retreat plan to share. That's where we shine!
However, if you have an agenda or plan, we'd be happy to review it to ensure that the content and the time booked as well as timeline has some built-in flexibility, so guests can breathe, relax and enjoy. Work-cations are an amazing model as they are a combo of the best of all worlds. Some self reflection, a stay away from home, an ability to have enjoyment and connection and leave, rested more peaceful and in harmony with some tools for next steps, and of course goals to keep this “new you “ on track. For an optimal future of health, wealth and happiness!!
The funds when booking a retreat for you and your guests is NON-refundable. A credit for facilitators can be used for one alternate date (for a one-time re-book), or you can use that credit to attend another retreat at WhileWoods, so your funds are not lost.
We do this as a method of paying it forward, and inspire those of you who hold so much brilliance to share an opportunity to gain your retreat legs.
Yes , that’s always our recommendation as dates do book quickly and are booked on a first come first serve basis.
However life happens and sometimes people cancel, so always check even if last minute. If we can accommodate you, we will. I always believe in the aligning of the stars …If you're meant to be here, space is likely to become available. :)
You’ve already found us and are reading the details, which speaks to your heart already whispering you must come soon !
That's ok. All retreats are facilitated by those of us with expertise and experience teaching at varying levels. If you're eager to learn and patient with yourself, I assure you ALL is possible.
If there happens to be an advanced level training, it will be indicated along with any pre-requisites required. These will be clearly communicated. However, our general rule is all levels welcome. I'm personally astonished by how much I learn both from teaching and from taking some programs again and again. There is always so much to take in. The majority of attendees have been in awe so far ( I am pleased to report)!
The short answer is, No. (Although, I do joke that this place is my kinda church!)
At WhileWoods, we do pray, set intentions and ask our inner wisdom for answers and we take a universal approach that respects the existence of all faiths, religions, and other belief systems.
Therefore, who you pray to, if you wish to do so, is up to you. If you do not wish to participate in such rituals, it is your choice of course, to politely decline.
I do share publicly that I am Christian, and that we welcome and value guests of all backgrounds, beliefs, religions and faiths.
We live in a beautifully diverse country, and at WhileWoods, we have an open and inclusive heart that guides all that we do.
Many of our guests attend our retreats as solo participants.
We match you up with other attendees, based on our guest profiles. All of our rooms are spacious with separate beds. There are single room options, however, bathrooms are shared.
There is multiple locations for both solo and/or group activities, based on your needs and comfort level. Half the fun is meeting new people and creating new bonds.
If that’s not your jam, that's okay. You have the option to opt for a solo stay and recharge as you desire based on availability at WhileWoods.
Our workshops and lessons are not mandatory. We simply request that if you're sitting out from an activity, that you let us know in advance, so we can set up our programs accordingly.
Thats easy! We use Eventbrite to coordinate all of our reservations and bookings. Simply click on the "Reserve your spot" button on any retreat page you are interested in, and book your retreat on Eventbrite.
