Hello!
Yes, it’s been a while.
Thank you to everyone who has supported this platform, and to those involved in bringing Renewal Dreamshop to fruition.
There are countless people to celebrate. Thank you to my parents, family and friends. The folks who have connected through this experience -thank you for being first!
I am reminded of why it is I am called to create in the first place. It is not to understand, nor to be understood.
It is to serve.
Odds
The challenge in creating something new is that there is only uncertainty. This often holds people back from creating when they feel called. The fear feels real, it becomes real. There’s a price to pay.
The question is:
What lies on the other side of that fear?
My friends and family were certainly skeptical when I told them I was going to bring people together in such a time and place. The paradigms came up. I don’t blame them, at times I too felt the overwhelm.
In the spring of last year I wrote the first draft of a novel. Bare bones buried beneath uncertainty and doubt. In writing everyday I was to uncover a new part -keeping things moving forward. Having an intention, while allowing something greater to reveal itself, is a delicate task.
Coming off such a project strengthened faith in my life.
You might call this God, Luck, Universe, Self.

In Practice
While the vision for the Renewal Dreamshop was grand, the expanse of beauty continues to unfold. There were tears and laughter, thrills and revelations, valleys, falls and peaks. New perspectives emerged, old ones let go. Each person brought a peace to the whole.
To put this experience into words is difficult, though some of the participants were kind to share:
The opportunities each activity offered; journaling, the symbolic burning of our limiting belief and kundalini yoga allowed me to reconsider how I mentally, emotionally, and physically enter a space of mindfulness.
The experience rejuvenated my capacity to live and dream...Going on a hike at 4am was my favorite part. It stimulated my creativity and connection to nature at a greater level. The climbing was so potent and I felt fully connected to all of the elements.
I was in a position of vulnerability and felt as though this sort of experience could only help me...The letting go of limiting beliefs opens up a whole new mindset that you never knew existed.
Beyond Doubt, Thank You
It is through our community such potent memories were created. I thank all who contributed with their participation and sponsorship. I am thrilled to share the Renewal Dreamshop website, where you might get a taste for the experience.
Registration is open for May 31, 2024 - June 2, 2024.
All of the details and media can be found on the site including last year’s itinerary.
We are so happy and grateful for your support in making this dream a reality. Please share and enjoy the experience with seekers you love.
Namaste
