Just Say Yes!

Do you say "yes" to only what's familiar? 🙃

There is something special about attending gatherings where you don't know everyone. You may be both nervous 😬 and excited 🤗 at the same time.

Retreats are a great way to expand your social circle in a relaxing environment and gently nudge you out of your comfort zone. 🧘🏾‍♀️

Tips:

💡Go with a beginner's mind. Make room for what's possible.

💡 Form new friendships, even if you know people there.

💡 If you are normally a talker 🙋🏾‍♀️, practice listening more.

💡 If you are usually the silent one, participate more in the discussions and activities.

💡 Try a food that you have never had, or one that you haven't had in a while.

💡Genuinely laugh out loud in a way that can be heard and not texted.

💡If your day-to-day involves lots of driving, let someone else take the wheel.

💡Spend time in nature.

💡 Be proud of yourself for going.

💡 Express gratitude for the experience.

💡 Enjoy yourself!

💡 Go with the flow and let the event's organizer take the lead. You are the guest.

💡 Last, but not least, get your dance on!💃🏽
