Soltura Women's Workshop: Part 1 - Caught in a Twister

Welcome to Soltura a unique and exciting place where people just like you embark on their own heroic journey of self-discovery. We believe that attitude dictates our experiences and that all people have the FREEDOM to make the choice to change their attitude and transform their lives. Our workshops reflect the concept that healing is a dynamic, interactive, creative process that focuses on making changes from the inside out.

Soltura offers an environment where participants can slow down, face life issues, break through barriers and find meaningful ways to move forward. We believe each person ultimately holds the key to his or her own best answers. At Soltura, we provide the space, activities and opportunity for participants to reconnect with what they already know, but may have forgotten.

This workshop series is a metaphorical journey of self-discovery using the classic story The Wizard of Oz, by L. Frank Baum. It has been designed for the woman who feels caught up in a tornado of emotions brought about by life's circumstances, turning her life around and around and carry her into territory that is strange and unfamiliar. The timeless lessons from "over the rainbow" will help you discover your purpose, unleash your pure potential, and learn the deeper meaning of "there's no place like home." The three workshops in this series build upon each other as participants accompany Dorothy and her friends down the Yellow Brick Road.

The first workshop is both physically and emotionally, helping build the foundation for further personal healing and growth by:

  • Making a commitment to go beyond the familiar
  • Redefining your concept of personal freedom
  • Realizing that (like the wizard) you create your own curtain to hide behind, acknowledge its composition, and begin the process of stepping out from behind it
  • Unveiling your truth by giving your authentic self a voice
  • Clarifying your inner battles
  • Tapping into your courage

Who participates?

Participants range from people struggling with new challenges in life to those who are stuck in old patterns of living who find that their life is not as fulfilling as they had envisioned.

Soltura workshop participants include individuals of all ages looking for a different way to experience their lives or seeking a new understanding of their inner self. Programs are geared to anyone who has the desire to change their personal perspective and experience personal freedom. While the motivations to participate in the workshop trilogy are varied and unique to each participant, some reasons may include:

  • Navigating one of life’s transitions following a loss of a parent, a child, a marriage, a job or other form of emptiness
  • Understanding self-defeating behaviors
  • Improving one’s relationship with self, family and friends
  • Difficulty juggling life’s daily stresses that challenge quality of life
  • Moving beyond a co-dependent relationship with a spouse or partner who is struggling with alcohol abuse
  • Gaining perspective on compulsive or addictive behaviors

Participants are asked to complete a brief health history questionnaire during the registration process to ensure that they are sufficiently fit both physically and emotionally to complete the workshops.

Life-altering experiences at Soltura consist of single gender workshops lasting 3 - 5 days. The small group format, consisting of no more than 12 persons in any workshop, guarantees individual attention and dynamic group interactions. While the experience is personal and each participant must do their own work, that work is facilitated and enhanced by the experiences of the group as a whole.

At Soltura we believe that small intimate groups living together in a "home" like setting provides a safe and supportive environment, forming an opportunity where a common bond and trust develop naturally. This community becomes integral to the growth and healing process both during and after the workshop experience. The family group created during the workshop process creates strong, lasting relationships with the other individuals who have come together and broken through self-bondage. Their journey together is intimate and each individual becomes important to the personal healing of another.
