What A RETREAT IS
An experience of transformation. Three days of retreat at the start of the winter, in a private venue, with women who are ready to make Rosh Chodesh a time for renewal.
Small enough to know everyone's name by the first night. Quiet enough to hear yourself think. Rich enough to turn Rosh Chodesh Kislev into a day that changes everything.
You taken your family on holiday and come home to make Yom Tov. You cooked, traveled and made sure everyone had what they needed.
You're hosting. You take care of marrieds and babies. Back to school and Yeshiva. Yom Tov. Soups and fish and challah. Your Work, business, friends, family. Life, health, appointments.
You take care of a lot.
It's not easy to leave everything behind to manage without you for two days and finally relax.
But when you do, you hear yourself thinking again. You connect to your heart and what’s really going on for you. You understand
yourself in a way you've been craving.
And when you come home, you see your life and the people you love with different eyes.
Because the best gift you can give your family is your real self.
How the days move
You arrive at noon at our private lakeside farm venue. All 40 acres for you, and the retreat you are about to experience. The sunlight is gentle on your nose. The venue is freshly prepared with linens, food and drinks, and every detail you'll need over the coming days. The faces of the women who will become friends in just three days, gathered around our first dinner. Gentle conversation. The hush of connecting to your heart. You relax into the loving atmospere. perBy the time you go to sleep, your shoulders have already dropped two inches, and you know why you came.
This is the day. Rosh Chodesh in its fullness. You wake to morning light. Hashem feels near in a way you had forgotten was possible. Chany leads you through the workshops that
Wednesday morning is gentle. There are tears that surprise you. There are women whose phone numbers you will keep forever. A closing circle that asks something of you and gives you something back, and then you go home. The winter is about to begin and you take the warmth with you. You are not the woman who arrived. You carry the light of your own Neshama. You have permission to live life with clarity, courage and care. You will pull from this well for months.
When a group of women are free to be real, You don't have to impress anyone. You don't have to say the right thing.
You don’t have to share anything you don’t want to share.
You understand yourself better. You Forgive yourself for the things you’ve done. You appreciate the things you’ve tried. You become gentle with the places you think you’ve failed. You accept the parts of yourself you’ve had trouble understanding.
And you do it surrounded by women who get it.
It’s intense. It’s fun. It’s powerful. It’s liberating.
And time to connect to yourself and to each other.
The Vibe
A close, loving group of women. You'll know everyone's name by the first night.
Hours where no one is asking for your attention or tugging at your skirt. The luxury to think and feel in a way your heart has been longing for.
Rosh Chodesh celebrated the way it was meant to be. Precious women using this time to renew, reset and walk intentionally into the month.
Nature. Delicious meals. Everything taken care of for you instead of you taking care of everyone else. Lakeside workshops. Looking around you and knowing, you are a woman who is valued.
Mrs. Chany Rosengarten, in person, all the way from Monsey, NY, in a room with you and a small group. Years of teaching distilled into the words you need to hear.
We’re keeping the group small and personal.
Most women come without knowing anybody. And very quickly, women are talking, laughing, sharing, understanding each other and connecting on a heart level.
“I truly felt seen, understood, held, loved, appreciated and acknowledged.”
"The group experience was incredible. Warm and loving. Vulnerable and authentic. It gave me the most amazing space and permission to feel myself deeply and get my clarity and awarenesses."
I’m Chany Rosengarten, founder of Woman of Valor and author of The Boundary Is You.
For eight years, I’ve worked with women who want to know themselves, love themselves, laugh more and live their lives more fully.
I’ve hosted more than 20 retreats, from Jamaica and Guatemala to Orlando and New York.
And now I'm coming to you. Bringing a small group together. Sharing two nights and three days of pure love, together. And real access to me and the work I do.
If you’re wondering, Who will be there? Will I fit in? Will I feel comfortable?
"Everyone coming in with their guards down, and open to creating friendships and receiving the support created a safety in the group.
Feeling Chany's guidance and support while doing the emotional work, helps to trust the process even when the exercises feel new"“I joined the retreat to come home to myself and I don't remember ever in my life feeling so many beautiful deep feelings.”
“The safety that I felt allowed me to do great inner work. I cried in public the first time in my life. That says a lot.”
“I expected to get more clarity and insight in the course material, but got a real dose of genuinely loving relationships instead.”
“This experience was something otherworldy. From the group of woman, to the meditations, workshops, food, accommodations, fun and connection. One thing led to another, and before I knew it I was a different person.”
More than 40 acres of English countryside, approximately one hour from London.
