“The money retreat was about so much more than simply money. I was able to learn more about myself and my family and understand why I have the patterns/behaviours that I have. This has helped me to be more aware of parts of myself and why they exist and has helped me to make significant changes around my choices. At one point in my life I felt immobilized around issues with money, which caused incredible stress in my life..I can honestly say this no longer exists. I feel empowered and in control of this area of my life. I have made friends with the different parts of myself and am learning and practicing to ‘grow’ the parts that need to be more present. This has been helpful in personal relationships as well. I feel deep gratitude for the work I have done and continue to do with Sharon, I honestly don’t know where I would be had I not done this work.”
Note: Individual coaching to work more deeply with the foundational activities is available post retreat.

To understand Dana, please read the following:
What is Dana?
Teachers teaching by “Dana”, teach freely so that anyone, no matter their financial means, can attend classes. Each time one receives teaching it is an opportunity to consciously practice generosity.
Giving money and other means of support expresses gratitude and continue. Each person receiving teachings determines the kind and amount of Dāna/Generous donation that they wish to give. This is not an exchange; it is a practice of openness and giving freely. This practice brings awareness to thoughts, feelings and actions around money. A suggested general amount is $20-40 per day, (cash or
cheque) however one gives according to ones heart and one’s financial means. When deciding how much to offer one should think about what these teachings mean to you and try to give accordingly.
It is recommended that an offering of dāna be made at the beginning of a class or retreat, to establish the intention to make the most of this opportunity. One can give additionally and to whatever amount
they choose. Dana is given at the time of the retreat.
