The therapeutic programme and change therapy is fantastic, it’s really practical and useful. Ididn’t know what to expect when I embarked on this holiday. I knew I wanted to change my life, my career, my relationships but didn’t know how. Chrissy and Alex have allowed me to explore who I am and that the life I really want is accessible. This week has been amazing and I am really excited about the future, and the changes I’m going to make in my life.
The Puripunn hotel is fantastic, there really is nothing critical I can say about it. The surroundings, proximity to good restaurants and shopping, the staff and food at the hotel are all wonderful. Thank you.

I stayed at The Puripunn which is the best hotel. The owners and staff make you feel very at home and ensure that you are cared for which is a great fit with the program. Peaceful and beautiful enviroment for safe sessions. The excursions with Son are special and would be difficult to replicate. The program is outstanding, their approach is inspirational. The format and forward leaning philosophy is highly effective. ”Lifechange” sounds like an overpromise but its not. This is a one of a kind, a once in a lifetime oppotunity to find new direction and meaning in life.

Lunch on our Retreat Holiday, Thailand.
We stayed at the Baan Deva Thailand Retreat, it’s lovely. The Change Therapy course did exactly what I hoped it would do, ie give my husband new ways of looking at things, esp career/work goals, and some tools for the future. I’m delighted that I also went away having learnt a lot. The work I did here will improve our relationship and also my relationships with other people. Chrissy and Alex are both personable, quirky and easy to talk to. They are very experienced professionals and you immediately feel that you are in good hands.

Hi everyone. I’ve just got back from my adventure holiday in Chiang Mai (it’s still raining!), I really don’t think I have packed so much into one week. I can’t believe everything I’ve done and made up my mind to make some well overdue changes in my life as well. I stayed at the Puripunn Hotel which really is an ideal place if you are travelling by yourself, it’s small and really friendly, the staff are lovely.
Son looked after me really well on all the trips and adventures. The Zip Wire adventure day(called the Flight Of The Gibbon) is absolutely amazing, it’s not hard at all which I was worried about, make sure you fit it into your holiday if you are thinking of going.
Next time I come I want to do the Spa and Wellness Holiday and go back on the zip wires. Thanks to all, will email again soon.

A Counseling Retreat Thai Cooking
I’m sure like most people I wasn’t sure quite what to expect when I first arrived, all I can say is if you have things to sort out in your life I can’t think of a better way to do it. It’s been a great week, and I’ve learnt and done so much. I’m coming back next year. Thanks to all, see you again.

Just a big thank you.

Sheriden and family.
This week away has helped get real perspective on life and work balance, its a really interesting process that should be helpful to everybody I can go home with some plans of action, and know that it will work. This is a great place to really get away from it all, to think clearly and work out what to do next. I loved the outings with Son, he really makes everything come to life.

Thank you for a great week. The Baan Deva counselling retreat really helped me to get away from it all and I feel that I’m at long last sorting my life out. Really enjoyed all the excursions with Son as well (especially the food tasting).

Tania says goodbye at the end of her Change Holiday in Chiang Mai.
I found the Womens Life Change Holiday to be a surprisingly gentle counselling process, and immensely rewarding. I wouldn’t have believed that we could sort out so much in such a little time, and it didn’t feel rushed. Son is lovely to be with during tours and excursions, an absolute gem, the market food tasting tour is an absolute winner. I’m looking forward to coming back next year. Thanks to all.

Mark on his Change Holiday
Thank’s you to all of you. A wonderful counseling retreat. I would recommend the Puripunn to any solo traveller, it’s just right. This is the starting point of my new life.

"My Change Holiday in Chiang Mai restarted my life" Michael H.
I am probably the first person to be sent here by their wife! I feel that my progress has been swift and incredibly successful, my sense of achievement is great and I can only thank my wife for sending me to allow me to achieve these goals. I have avoided the biggest mid-life crisis. I am looking forward to the continued online-counselling support on my return, to complete my Life Change and finally move on.
Thanks to all of you.
