Wise Effort: Reclaim Your Energy and Realign Your Life

Many of us are overextended yet underfulfilled. In this highly experiential workshop, you’ll be guided through the Wise Effort Method, a powerful, ACT- and wisdom traditions-informed process to reclaim your energy and direct it toward what matters most. Through values mapping, group work, and real-life behavior experiments, you’ll be invited to identify what’s draining you, strengthen what sustains you, and design wiser ways of showing up in your life, relationships, and work.

Explore three Wise Effort practices designed to help you reconnect with what truly matters. We’ll begin by getting curious and gently mapping where your energy is actually going right now, noticing what may be keeping you stuck, and discovering what truly matters to you. From there, you’ll open up, practicing radical acceptance of what is so you can open up to more of who you are. Finally, you’ll focus your energy, designing and committing to a life that reflects your values in key areas such as work, relationships, health, and creativity.

This retreat centers on interactive practices: partner and small-group exercises, live coaching demonstrations, and gently guided reflection time. 

Participants will be invited to:

• Explore three ways of relating to the world that keep us stuck in unwise effort.
• Clarify core values. 
• Learn and practice skills to open up and focus your energy on what matters most to you.
