The Baan Deva Montra Retreat Resort is fantastic! Service, help, friendliness, food and facilities. The environment is perfect and it has a very healing and restful feel.
It was great that you could be flexible on what we were interested in and being able to go to the temples with Son was fantastic- he is a great guide and fun to be with.
The personality profile feedback report was illuminating and spot on. I was surprised by parts, but it also came out really well in identifying issues for me. It was also clear that this would be practical – about identifying the reasons for blocks to change.
I couldn’t speak more highly of Chrissy. She spent much more time than I could have hoped for in “therapy” sessions with me, letting me talk but asking gems of questions that got to the crux of the matter and were illuminating. I felt able to see chinks of light and she helped me open doors without fear, at the time and pace appropriate for me. The Life Change People genuinely care about all the people that they work with. I thought there was an excellent mix of therapy and practical planning, and that it also touched on long term issues from my history / childhood, but very quickly acknowledged and moved on from these, which was exactly what I wanted.It is a perfect counselling retreat in Thailand.
The tools and techniques we used were one of the best bits- the blocks to change, and “walking around” negative or other self beliefs. Much of these were things that I had felt for a long, long time and never begun to query. I can now honestly say I do not believe them any more, and that I can’t think of a single negative self belief I have left! I also feel that I have a range of tools to help me think through things. Being more mindful of what I am feeling, and trying to manage and be realistic about mid life depression, mid-life crisis and emotions, were some of the really big points for me.
Before I came , I was a complete mess and all over the place (for want of better terms!) I had no idea what was going on for me, why, how to get out of that way of being and thought it was just me. But I felt that I had to try to make progress.
Over the course of the retreat, I hoped to get some clarity over the whirlwind of emotions I was feeling, to get a better sense of my self and what I want and need, to try to make sense of my relationship issues, and start thinking about my life. Overall, I wanted to see if the issues I was feeling were “just” a temporary response to recent issues or if they had longer term basis, and wanted to work out what next. I have done all of that, and more.
I have experienced rather a lot of difficult things since my return home and I feel fundamentally that I am ok, and am far from being a nervous wreck that I was before I came.
Thank you again for everything.
