HONOUR A SPECIAL TIME IN YOUR LIFE
Virtual Retreat from Anywhere in the World!
+ Limited Edition “Treasure Trove” Guide couriered to your door
Are you willing to HONOUR YOURSELF by carving out time and energy to reflect and celebrate your life to date and perhaps embrace your next chapter?
Whether it’s a special “decade” birthday or a pivotal one for other personal reasons, this is about fully EMBRACING your life and age right now. To find a way to slow down and RECONNECT to your inner self to celebrate and honour yourself differently this year…
This is a truly unique and divine gift to yourself or a loved one!
NOTE: Please be sure to enquire at least 4- 6 weeks before your proposed date to ensure availability and that your Bespoke Box box can be delivered timeously around the world.
Our birthdays, anniversaries, equinox (Spring/autumn) and New Year always offer a natural pivot point for meaningful reflection time – to take stock and reflect on the poignancy of another year passing, before setting up your year ahead.
Perhaps celebrating in the usual way leaves you feeling empty, stressed, dishonored and irritated.
You just wish it was all over.
Or no one else ever takes the time to pause and celebrate you as you deserve.
What’s the fuss?
The fuss is all about you greeting yourself.
To put your needs ahead of what others expect of you this birthday for once.
Falling in love with your life right now.
Celebrating the turning of the sun another year.
Birthdays beg you to honour yourself.
Will this be the year you take time to reconnect?
Not with egoistic pride, but with reverence, compassion, self-love and a dose of humour.
To pay more mindful attention to what was and what is coming – the GAP between NO Longer and Not yet
To recognise this is naturally a reflective time to look back and ponder what has transpired
To find time to honour what you are proud of accomplishing since your last birthday
To close out things that do NOT need to be carried across the threshold to next year.
To be able to look yourself in the mirror and love, (or at the very least like) and respect whom you see staring back at you
To allow yourself to feel deep gratitude for getting this far in life, no matter what it has thrown at you recently – No matter how far off your path you feel right now.
Perhaps it’s a very special “decade” birthday, or as I like to call them now, round birthdays that end in a zero?
The 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80th celebrations are poignant times for deep inner reflection. Rather than dreading and shying away from your age.
Decade birthdays tend to embody more gravitas and have a profound way of marking time and progress or highlighting your life being lived or not lived.
Is there more you want to embrace …..is there enough space for more to enter?
Are you fully embracing your next age or shying away from it?
WHY ELSE MIGHT YOU EMBARK ON “HONOUR YOURSELF” RETREAT
You are at a poignant point of reflection – and perhaps need to close out and honour the past?
You can also use this PRIVATE BESPOKE RETREAT if you are thinking about your year ahead …..perhaps a special anniversary of a marriage, loss of a loved one, or any crossroads coming at you that might be the perfect time for a DIY @ home self retreat?
If you are a business owner, it can be super useful to embark on a STRATEGIC RETREAT at the quarter-year marks …to take stock of life and business looking backward and forwards and reconfigure where and how you expend energy
Are you on the verge of closing doors, walking away, shutting down, letting go, moving beyond, ending relationships, shifting, career moves, moving home or country, or firing your boss or your partner?
No longer accepting what doesn’t match your true desires?
In other words, does this time in your life epitomize a massive CROSSROADS LOOMING?
It can feel overwhelming to celebrate and honour yourself when there is so much COMING AT YOU, BEGGING FOR ATTENTION AND SWIRLING INTO YOUR LIFE.
WHAT MUST YOU SAY YES VS NO TO?
A THRESHOLD OF CHANGE – STAY OPEN & EMBRACE
Do you sense this threshold embodies some big bold dreams, projects and goals calling your energy and spirit forward these next few months and years? A new age dawning when you will be stepping into your next glorious chapter?
Celebrating this cycle is a way to pause and honour the GAP that EXISTS between NO LONGER and NOT YET!
Making space to call in new creative space, projects, a new role or clients, new destinations and experiences, new habits, updated versions of yourself, new goals, friends, and partners. Re-sparking your joy and energy again thus feeling proud of your life, how you live it, and what legacy you are leaving
Embrace the infinite list of possibilities!
💙 VIRTUAL RETREAT REVIEWS 💙
JO MARSH: TRANSFORMATIONAL SPECIALIST – March 2023
I’ve just completed a four-day reset and restore retreat with Kate Emmerson. I met Kate through my book writing, and she is the lady that is going to be co-facilitating a writing retreat that I’m attending in June in Greece. I work in a similar realm to Kate, that of growing and empowering people through coaching, facilitation, etc. So it’s not easy to find someone who has got something different that really will make the difference — because although we are aware of the skills and the tools in the realm that we facilitate in, you still can’t do it for yourself. But who’s going to be the person who’s going to walk with you on that road that is the right fit, the right person with the right heart and the right spirit to match you where you are at? And Kate is beyond words. When I became aware of a DIY retreat, I could never have imagined what it was in terms of the depth and thoughtfulness and the thought-provoking activities that you are given to do on your own without facilitation. She has got a magical formula that has really taken me by surprise!
Virtual Birthday Retreat Dec 22 “Our Queen of Retreats Founder Caroline Sylger Jones has just completed a wonderful,
private, virtual retreat guided by brilliant coach@kateemmerson_retreats over her birthday. Using visual and voice prompts beautifully created by Kate, each morning and afternoon over four days, Caroline looked back over the last
12 months, took stock, paused, and set her intentions for the next 12 months.
She absolutely loved it 💚 and would thoroughly recommend it…If you want to gift yourself or a friend this experience then, pause and honour yourself with Kate Emmerson’s Virtual Retreat”

Iole Matthews – Head of Coaching & Consulting at Bright Horizons, London – NEW YEAR ’22:
Kate’s virtual retreat was a brilliant opportunity to gain so many of the benefits of a retreat but at home – perfect for carving out time when you cannot manage the luxury of travel and days away. The beautiful hand-crafted material shared, shaped each day around cleverly crafted exercises, and with Kate just a message or call away each morning and afternoon, it was clear I was being held in the hands of an expert facilitator. Over four days I was able to reflect, review and re-align so that I emerged feeling much more centred and confident for the year ahead. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to find some structured and supported thinking time when an onsite retreat is not possible. I have continued to use the booklets and box for a daily touchstone practice. As with all of Kates’s experiences, this is transformative.
Peet van Jaarsveld – CEO Blue Future, South Africa- NEW YEAR 22/23:
I found the retreat most useful and amazing. Whereas I am typically good at setting goals and making resolutions, I often ignore deliberate reflection on the previous year. I discovered there is a lot to gain from doing this with some focus. I was surprised that despite a feeling of having “survived” the previous year, how much I actually accomplished, and that assisted me with prioritizing the areas for goal setting for the coming year as well as taking some recognition for progress and accomplishments. I was surprised by what progress I actually made and the positioning I have achieved for the New Year which made goal setting so much more fun and effective.
The retreat modules were lovely, nicely designed and prompted reflecting and pondering with the heart, rather than just flying with the pen and writing and overthinking. I also think that the retreat material being in hard copy paper (classy paper) and pen gets you away from being connected online like many apps force one to be. I mean we had fire, paper, ribbons, voice notes, postcards, envelopes and classic folders in our set.
The facets the retreat covered included reflecting on “ushers” that helped us in the previous year, also made sure that one thinks about other people and not just your solo journey.
I would highly recommend that you start the next calendar year or next birth year with a program like this and with Kate by your side.
Evert and Caroline, Netherlands – NEW YEAR 22/23:
It was very powerful to dive into this retreat together. We enjoyed four days of reconnecting with ourselves and each other on a level we did not foresee. We still talk about the insights the exercises gave us, and we feel that we are equipped with the energy and strength to continue on the positive path we laid out. The booklet and visual tools added depth to the exercises. They gave something tangible to hold on to, to write on, and to inspire us in thoughts and action. We don’t think we would have gotten as much out of the retreat without the booklet. As bonus, the content was crafted with great care and creativity, so we also enjoyed the unwrapping of each day.

💙PAUSE. IMMERSE.RECONNECT💙
IMAGINE ….After you signed up for your Unique Virtual Retreat, you received a beautiful box couriered to your door with strict instructions NOT to open it until the day you start your Retreat.
It was so hard to keep your ‘paws’ off your beautiful package ….and today, on Day 1, feeling like an excited kid celebrating your birthday, you FINALLY get to peek inside and break open the special wax seal to reveal your treasure trove guide booklet – all bespoke hand-made on Iona, by Kate!
Oh, the sweet delight of wondering what’s in store for you over the next 4 days. Your heart knows it’s going to be a memorable way to celebrate this time!
What, oh what will your heart reveal to your mind?
What is whispering and wishing to be BREATHED INTO YOU?
By surrendering into self-connection and drowning out some of the external noise for a while – ideas can drop into your heart. You really want to gift yourself this quiet retreat time to allow the year to BUBBLE UP and reveal ITSELF IN YOUR SPACE.
Slowing down with mindful grace – rather than rushing headlong off in the wrong direction.
You have never done anything quite like this Virtual Retreat before, but this has all felt like perfect timing for you.
Right reason, right celebration, and with just the right amount of support with Kate guiding you.
As you break the wax seal and dive into your first treasure, you just know the next four days are going to be marked with purpose, meaning and ritual. You take a deep breath, make some coffee or a delicious herbal tea and relax into the first exercise Kate has offered you. As you press play on your first voice-note instruction ….you listen to Kate’s soothing and inspirational voice guide you step-by-step.
You know deep down you are in brilliant hands with a kind and supportive professional, because you read all the reviews of folk who have trusted going on retreat with Kate before you …..and you felt it was “perfect” for you.
You loved the idea of being able to work from home with the very special “treasure trove” booklet you are holding now.
You appreciate that Kate will be on hand for the 4 days, and you aren’t alone in this process. You feel completely held and know you will GREET THIS TIME differently for once.
