Facititator: Laila Ghattas, Aziza Healing Adventures
WHY COME
Women come to our retreats looking for ways to improve their
lives.
Participant feedback confirms time and again that while on retreat women develop clarity, insight, awareness, learn valuable tools, and enjoy much needed R&R. Women love the opportunities to walk the gentle grounds, linger over a delicious meal, rest deeply and enjoy private time to reconnect.
Many women are prompted to take a retreat because a personal situation points to time away, time to look inwards, time to make room to grow. Concerns about family, work, body image, relationships, career, changes, loss, disappointments, exhaustion, and other issues feel significantly lighter with professional, compassionate support.
WHAT YOU EXPERIENCE
The most common healing experience a woman has on an Aziza retreat
is that she no longer feels alone. Hearing other women talk from the heart
cannot be underestimated as a powerful way to feel connected through our shared
humanity.
One of the most empowering experience is to understand that you can positively shift your life perspective with conscious, thoughtful exploration of potentially self-limiting attitudes or beliefs. This is called Self Knowledge.
The most liberating experience a woman has on our retreats is recognizing the patterns she unconsciously repeats that interfere with and separate her from living her best life. A whole new world opens when a woman realizes she's got brand new, healthy, life affirming options to consider as she moves forward.
HOW WE HELP YOU
IMPROVE YOUR LIFE
Self-discovery sessions are designed to nurture feelings of self-acceptance,
self-compassion and personal empowerment.
Our Therapeutic creativity sessions uniquely set us apart. We creatively explore any subject on which you desire to have more clarity by using fun and playful materials like paint, clay and collage.
Women without creative experience are constantly amazed at how much they enjoy expressing themselves with colour and texture,. Most participants are pleasantly surprised by the depth and relevance of what they learn from their creations.
Women often remark that the short time spent on an Aziza retreat was just as, if not more useful, than months and years of other personal growth options they've tried.
"I am always astonished to find that what I thought was going into the art in fact contains different messages. I am continually surprised at the revelations about myself through discussions of the art."
"Flying Solo has offered more than I expected in terms of self growth. It's been life changing and life affirming."
"Laila's intuition is amazing. You don't realize what you are really looking for until you find it and she makes that possible."

Growing up in Ontario, Laila developed a natural love of the outdoors while camping, canoeing and hiking with her friends and family. Her leadership interests took root as a Katimavik group leader and from there she travelled around the world on many outdoor adventures.
Reflecting upon these journeys, Laila says the most important thing she has learned is that there are rich rewards for choosing to be awake in this life. In this context, to be awake is to consciously open up to and develop self and environmental awareness through the senses, intuition and a connection to a greater whole. This learning process has become Laila's way of life and is the very essence of Aziza.
Also a dedicated artist, Laila paints original artwork and has had a series of successful shows in Toronto. Her images are deeply personal and express her joy for the beauty inherent in the simple pleasures of living. A passionate belief in the healing power of art combined with her enthusiasm for travel and intimate experience of the Gestalt therapy process has lead Laila to launch Aziza Healing Adventures.
Laila Ghattas has a private practice in Toronto where she conducts art and therapy workshops for individuals and corporations, as well as individual therapy and Reiki treatments. She leads international personal growth retreats in spectacular natural settings. www.aziza.ca
