I am in the process of moving into a new home, and one of the things that drew me to this particular house was the huge garden tub in the bathroom and the backyard garden. It seemed like such a beautiful place to retreat to after a hard day's work. During the process of admiring the beauty of the place and the need for relaxation, it dawned on me that I hadn't been on a retreat in ages. Jennifer Louden (The Comfort Queen) advocates taking periodical weekend retreats right in your very own home. In fact, she wrote a whole book about it. So...with all that's going on in our crazy lives and in this hectic world, don't you think it's time to put yourself on a retreat? Think healthy foods, pampering yourself, taking stock of your life. Think gratitude journals, beautiful magazines (Tea Time, Southern Lady, etc.), thoughtful books. Think comfort, aromatherapy, and beautiful music. Isn't it time to indulge? For this swap, you will have one partner, to whom you'll send a package from which they can create a wonderful weekend retreat right in their home. Read their profile, and keep tabs on the below discussion for their particulars. All swappers will be expected to also share a little bit about themselves below. Tell us why you need (desire, crave) a retreat. You don't have to spill the dirty details...however sharing will help give your partner a glimpse into your world and perhaps ignite a spark of creativity. Swappers, please do not make a list of things you do not want. The only thing allowed would be listing any specific allergies (for example, if you can't be around incense, you may state so!). The value of this swap should fall in the $15-$20 range. For that reason, people with a recent history of no sends and a history of drama will not be allowed. Here are the pesky little rules:
That's all! Now sign up for the swap, and get ready for your personal weekend retreat! |
