ReNew, ReFresh, ReBalance.........You Deserve a Get Away!
The First "Women's Renewal Retreat" took place the weekend of October 13-15, 2006, in Lexington, Michigan, in a 3600sq ft Log Cabin Home, built in 2003, on beautiful Lake Huron. Leading area psychotherapist, Marla K. Ruhana guided women through a remarkable weekend designed to renew mind, body and spirit. Women explored themselves in a variety of workshops like Coping in Relationships with Ruhana.
Lisa MacLean, MD attended this Women's Renewal Retreat, and Ruhana was honored. Dr. MacLean, local psychiatrist stated, "It was a good way to connect with other women. The gourmet meals were all outstanding. Marla Ruhana was a great presenter, sincere and real. Location, accomodations, workshops, and guests were a great value. I would recommend this retreat for all women who want to better understand themselves, connect with other women, and obtain techniques to improve their life."
Cheryl Sommers,Grosse Pointe resident, also attended, and stated,"For me, it was a weekend of self discovery... I feel revitalized and full of life again! Many thanks to the outstanding facilitator, Marla Ruhana."
Ruhana's true intention in facilitating these retreats is connecting women of all ages. She once heard a woman who moved to the Detroit area say, "How do women connect here? There is no bustle of a big city, where is the center in which women interact?" This motivated Ruhana to offer a much needed service to women in our community.
