The Soul’s Journey : Connecting With Your Intuition Retreat
This retreat is an opportunity to connect with yourself in a unique and transformational way. There is an inherent power in traveling that so wonderfully lends itself to stillness. Combined with the contemplative practices of yoga and meditation, you really do have a window to learn to listen to and trust the teacher inside you.
RETREAT DETAILS
My hope for you this week is that you have a first-hand experience of the wisdom that awaits you when you leave the musings of the mind behind. I also want you to have a concrete understanding of why that shift has occurred in you and how you can maintain it as you return to your daily life.
If you’re looking to find more peace and fulfillment in your life, without a doubt, you will. If you’re currently committed to a larger vision for yourself, wanting to do bigger things in your community or in the world at large, this retreat will equip you with the tools you need to do exactly that. If you feel a shift emerging inside you, you’ll learn to trust its nudges and allow its unfolding.
Perhaps first and foremost, The Soul’s Journey, is a journey of learning to listen to a different voice; call it your higher self, your inner-child or your most authentic self, we all have a voice inside of us that unlocks our power. We will learn to hear and value that deeper voice this week.
Join me for an unforgettable week! Have a look below at what past attendees have said or check out this video for a glimpse of retreat life.
Warmly,
Rachael

RETREAT LEADERS
Rachael is the founder of Artful Thinking, a wellness company that effectively merges eastern and western philosophies and believes that through this balance, the world can heal. Based in Ontario, Canada, she host multiple retreats annually – all around the world! This will be her first retreat at Floating Leaf and she is thrilled to be hosting there.
A true entrepreneur since the age of 20 (a mini one since the age of 4) and a self-professed scientist since the age or 16, Rachael has wisely merged philosophy, science and spirit to create a successful practice. With over 5,000 hours of one-one counselling, she remains a sought after counsellor, coach and mentor. Based in Ontario, Canada, she hosts both local and international retreats and passionately shares what she has coined as “50/50 Thinking”; The need to learn both how to think and how to not think in order to create and sustain true happiness and fulfilment.
Like so many others… she has a story of defeat and triumph. Her story began early, having had a daughter at the age of 16 and needing to navigate through an unforgiving and judgemental world. In her high school years she became obsessed with human behaviour and neuroscience in effort to fix her flaws and heal herself… only to come to the ultimate realization that she was already indeed perfect; perfectly, imperfect.
Rachael now lovingly shares her knowledge and experience in service to the needs of others. She believes in fluff free, getting to the point, real talk and has an empathetic and intuitive ability to connect with whoever is in front of her. Rachael naturally meets people exactly where they are on their journey and powerfully takes them to the next level of their growth.
She has an unique ability to bring awareness to unconscious set backs and combined with the power of travel, believe that retreats provide a special opportunity for true transformation.

The Joy Professionals
Quick to smile and easy to laugh, the Balinese are experts at living a life of joy and fulfillment. They live in the moment, neither regretting past events nor vexing on what has yet to happen.
Perhaps nowhere else on Earth lives a better example of truly living in a joyful state than in Bali. Life here is interwoven with spirituality, delight in daily rituals and appreciation for all surrounding them.
We live, work, play and grow in harmony with our local community, the people of Sukawati village. Their support and encouragement for Floating Leaf was a driving force in our development and we involve the community in deciding exactly which philanthropic efforts will be of most help and interest to them.
Floating Leaf Eco-Retreat believes in full transparency. The “++” that you will see for all hotels in Bali, and throughout Asia, refers to a government mandatory tax and service charge. Please be aware of this when comparing prices as some retreats will not disclose this information and can inflate this charge up to 40% in hidden costs.
Our policy is to be open and upfront and explain that the “++” at Floating Leaf is the minimum additional 21%. Your non-refundable non-transferable deposit secures your spot on this Bali retreat. Please be sure to read our complete terms and conditions. Thank you and we look forward to welcoming you to Bali and Floating Leaf Eco-Luxury Retreat.

In February of 2018 I went to Costa Rica with 10 women I had never met before and RACHEL!! To say that this experience changed my life is an understatement. My soul is absolutely on fire from this and I feel like I am finally living my life’s purpose. The yoga was personal, the meditation was peaceful and the workshops were eye opening and life changing. I’ve met life long friends who will always be my cheerleaders and I feel like I owe Rachel so much for helping me to see my calling in such a deep and purposeful way!! I plan to go again. And again. And again!! You should too!!!
Rachael is incredible! She has the ability to look deep inside a person and empower them. This is so key in today's world when there are millions of individuals who are expert therapists, but do not have original material. Rachel taught me about authenticity, she taught me that self love was first and foremost and that it is an ongoing journey. She goes places where others dare not go - so that she can bring out the best in each and every one of us. For that she is truly special and a gem in this world!
Working with Rachael has been one of the most powerful and empowering experiences. Her empathy, intuitivemess, amd insight is incredible. She has an innate understanding of the mind and spirit. I had the privilege of attending one of her retreats and the experience waa second to none. Her yoga classes were easy to follow for a novice like me yet the more experienced practitioners enjoyed them as well. She made meditation achievable for me and her workshops resonated with me long past the returning home. I recommend Rachael as a life coach, yoga instructor ans Artful Thinking truly impacted my life
This past February I returned from my second Costa Rican yoga retreat with Rachel. Both retreats were equally impactful on my life- not only a reprieve from my daily stresses of work and life but also motivation to reset my mindframe for when I return back to that “daily life.” Rachel is full of knowledge and all about self-care and setting boundaries, which is definitely something I need to redirect my energy towards. I highly recommend a retreat with Rachel if you’re looking for a healthy vacation, filled with positivity, good vibes, yoga, excursions, and personal free time, all while learning to be a better version of yourself in the midst of a beautiful jungle! I’m looking forward to a third retreat in the future!
Rachael has an incredible ability to make those around her feel comfortable and safe. I have been seeing Rachael for several years, and still to this day I get an instant smile on my face when I see her. Before Rachael, I had seen various counsellors, psychotherapists and even psychiatrists. It wasn't until I started having regular sessions with Rachael that I saw noticeable progress in my personal development. Rachael has become a true friend, someone I trust wholeheartedly and who is always there for me. I highly recommend her services!
