The Ultimate New Year Rescue Remedy Retreat/Workshop

(It IS possible to achieve your goals for 2010, even if you’ve given up on New Year Resolutions, or you’ve lost focus on the ones you did make.)

If your great ideas never seem to get off the ground, you may be wondering why others seem to achieve their goals but you don’t. And, like many, you’re probably tired of making New Years Resolutions then never keeping them. All of which can leave you flat, uninspired and struggling to follow through.

Fear not. We’re going to help you make 2010 the year you DO achieve your goals.

Join me, Helen Ross-Hamilton and my colleague: life and business coach Maxine Dodds; plus our Guest Speaker, Nutritionist Colin McKeand; Personal Trainer and Sport Massage Therapist, Laura Westwater and Massage therapist and Counsellor Morag McAllister for a 2-day kick-start to the 2010 you want.

You know from experience that it takes more than simply announcing a New Year Resolution and then hoping for the best to achieve your goals. And so do we!!

It takes focus, planning, support, commitment and optimum health to achieve what you desire in life. In other words, the full monty!

That’s why we’ve joined forces to create the Ultimate New Year Rescue Remedy: a 2-day retreat to help YOU get, and stay, on track.

Who Is it For?

The workshop is for women who:

• Want their goals for 2010 to actually happen this time
• Are fed-up feeling like they have to choose between well-being and ease, and achieving their goals
• Have given up on making New Year Resolutions altogether because they never keep them
• Made a Resolution but have since lost heart, or lost focus
• Know what they want to achieve, but are not feeling very inspired about it

If this is you, join us!

In just 2 fun, relaxing and informative days you will:

• experience a “whole system” approach that supports both achieving your goals, and, improving your well-being
• discover what you REALLY want, deep down, in a Heart-Centred Goal Planning™ session that will surprise and empower you
• transform your (perhaps failed) New Year’s Resolution into a clear, expertly-designed, inspiring goal
• seriously improve your commitment, motivation, and know-how, through exercises that engage mind, body, heart and spirit
• create a 3 stage long-term plan, with key milestones, and a "next steps" action plan
• feel a lot more committed to taking action on your goals
• get clear, expert advice on how to boost your energy and improve your moods (and discover why that’s key to achieving your goals)
• uncover hidden challenges, limiting beliefs and blind-spots that may be sabotaging your success
• generate ideas and get organised for taking what you’ve learned back to your real life and making it work there
• learn a simple, yet powerful, process for accessing an abundance of resources and nurturing your spirit
• get expert tips for getting more of the results you want
• develop your support network – in particular you’ll have the opportunity to “buddy-up” with another participant for mutual support going forward
• relax, learn, and get motivated, in a fun and supportive environment, in gorgeous surroundings
• leave feeling wonderful after a relaxing massage, great food and fun packed activities

PLUS – also included is one-to-one, follow-up coaching support that will help you maintain the momentum of the workshop well into spring!

But don’t dilly dally! This exclusive weekend of group and individual coaching, nutrition, stretching, and a relaxing massage treatment is sure to sell out fast because we’re limiting it to just 20 places so we can give you our very best attention.

Meet your team!

Following a management career with RBS Colin McKeand opted to leave the finance world and retrain in the health field. In 2002 he founded Nutri - Tox and is now one of Scotland’s leading diet and nutrition specialists, sought after speaker, broadcaster and article writer.

Colin has been helping people of all ages, from all walks of life, overcome their health challenges and achieve their healthy living and healthy eating goals. He also works with large companies such as Banks, Utilities, and Call Centres, together with smaller businesses employing just a few staff, plus some public sector organisations.

Colin separates the facts from the myths when it comes to diet, nutrition and lifestyle and does not believe in one size fits all or the latest gimmick or fad. He promises to challenge some beliefs about eating and food.

Maxine Dodds of Maxine Dodds Coaching followed her heart into life and business coaching and training after a 20-year career in the IT Industry in roles ranging from IT Support to Software Engineering and Project Management. So quite a change!

Maxine is also a very keen archer, who competes regionally and for Scottish National Squad in 2008/2009, so she knows a thing or two about goal setting and commitment! But this weekend she’s setting her sights on you! Maxine’s programme of coaching sessions are sure to leave you feeling inspired, laser-focused and committed to making your dreams for 2010 come true. Oh, and she’s determined you’ll have fun too!

Prompted by her own experience of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) after the war in Iraq, Morag McAllister trained as a counsellor, specialising in PTSD Management and Person Centred Counselling whilst still serving in the Royal Air Force. Treating colleagues, she realised many were suffering mentally from the horrors they had seen, and so designed relaxing treatments to help them, particularly after tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Recently Morag set up Morag’s Heeling Hands where she provides a holistic approach to health, a friendly approach to Beauty, and private, confidential Counselling.

A Personal Trainer at FitnessChicks, Laura Westwater (Photo coming soon!) works with clients throughout Edinburgh and the Lothians. Laura is passionate about health and fitness and aims to put everyone at their ease with exercise. During this weekend, she’s turning her attention to helping you discover the role exercise can play in helping you achieve your goals, and will be introducing a few fun moves and stretches! So remember to bring some comfortable clothing.

And, this is me obviously...I've been coaching professionally since 2004. I help women who want a balanced and juicy life but who struggle to get focused. A qualified coach and therapist, I spent 12 successful years in the corporate world of IT in the City of London and has also worked in the NHS and voluntary sectors.

I run The Results Agency, write, and am a working Mum. And there's a lot more about me on the "About" page...

So are you ready to commit to your goals this year?

Think for a moment. What’s the alternative?

Feeling disappointed with yourself when yet another year zips by without you taking steps to fulfil your dreams?

Feeling envious when you see others succeed and kicking yourself for not making the effort to keep your resolutions?

Procrastinate no more!

So how much does it cost to plan your best year ever?
