Restoring Clarity and Purpose in a Frenzied World
Weekend Retreat March 6-8, 2026 at The Art of Living Center in Boone, NC
rediscover your direction
Ever get the sense you’re checking all the boxes—but missing the point?
That your life looks full, yet something essential feels out of reach?
Constant motion, noise, and obligation have a way of pulling us away from our own clarity.
In a weekend retreat led by licensed psychotherapist Claire Dennis, you will have the opportunity to explore not only your innate inner wisdom, but also the unconscious habits that are blocking you from realizing your reason for being. With the supportive environment of an all inclusive resort in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains, you will have a dedicated, distraction-free space away from the demands, obligations, and stressors of life so that you can get in touch with what you value, what you want, and who you are. Throughout the weekend, Claire offers evidenced-based experiential therapeutic exercises, thought provoking prompts, and facilitates group discussions with the aim for you to regain inner clarity and a sense of empowerment.
Arrive feeling overwhelmed by the noise and demands of everyday life.
Leave with clarity, direction, and the confidence to act on what you already know inside.
Let’s explore what that looks like, together.
what to expect
Over three days, Claire offers clinically backed prompts to help uncover the missing pieces of yourself, your purpose, your needs, and your sense of agency in your life. Through visuals and dynamic therapeutic tools such as psychodramas, you will awaken insights that will have a lasting impact on connection with your inner wisdom. You will also learn how to rewire unhelpful mechanisms that are holding you back. Claire facilitates therapeutic group discussions that will further your sense of who you really are—and how to never let go.
*Please note that participants will be strongly encouraged to ceremonially turn off access to their cell phones together so that each person may be fully present to themselves during the retreat. Cell phones are a complicated and powerful tool that can often serve as an impediment to our self discovery. A landline will be available for emergencies.*
