TESTIMONIALS

 

Wow, because of the combined energy of those attending, both in the physical and non-physical realm, the entire day was amazing. So much support, so much love, so much community. What a blessing!

Sara Blumenfeld

 

Sara has a gift for creating “event magic.” She goes beyond pulling together the space, finding great speakers, and making her audience comfortable.  She creates an atmosphere of sacred space where each attendee is encouraged to grow and stretch, experience and learn, knowing that they are safe to be exactly who they are…or perhaps who they want to be.  We left the event richer in knowledge, and with more tools in our toolkit to help us achieve our dreams and goals. But we also left with the feeling that we had really had a magical experience.  I listened to many people talking as we packed up to leave and I heard that word “magic” over and over.  Thank you, Sara, for all that you gave us.

Sara, many thanks to you for putting on this joyous event! I was able to make some great connections, not only for my business but also for the non-profit La Via Sana I serve as a board member and volunteer. Particularly, I enjoyed Donna’s presentation on conscious language and Dahlia’s transformation program (or a taste thereof). As I am venturing into some new products, especially Altar Trays, I think Samantha will be a wonderful resource for me. The exercise Mark has introduced us to will become a good habit, I’m sure. Your session on creating abundance will have impact on everyone that participated and I am looking forward to your future retreats. Brigitte Starkey

What an amazing gathering you wo-manifested.  You are such a precious light, and a joy to know and love.  Count me in on any future gatherings.  It feeds my soul!

Samantha Vanderslice

 

Thank you for doing such a wonderful job holding space for everyone’s light to shine!

It was a life changing event with continuous light-filled moments of community.

Dear beautiful Sara…Back in Elgin and just riding the wave of blessings today! Thank you for promoting such a dynamic, one of a kind event! All the speakers were absolutely awesome. All the participants were hand-picked by Spirit to attend. All the vendors blessed us with their specialties. Thanks to the 22 bodies and to the thousands among us!

Melba Morris

 

Sara Blumenfeld did it again! This retreat was so well organized, with 30 minute breaks between speakers, and plenty of time for lunch, shopping, and chatting. No one had a chance to get tired of sitting. The vendors’ products ranged from practical to fascinating to relaxing to yummy. The theme of creating ran smoothly through the entire day with five speakers approaching it from their own specialties.  I loved the interaction the speakers used to demonstrate how to be creative! My best takeaway was discovering I AM able to create after all. Looking forward to Sara’s next Retreat!!

There are not sufficient words!  I enjoyed every speaker immensely and made so many new friends that have already been such blessings.   I connected with others on a deeper level and am so thankful they are in my life.  Sara, you are such a lovely hostess and I love your retreats.  Thank you for including me.

TESTIMONIALS

I’ve been involved in this work for almost 30 years and I was anticipating this to be a love oriented type session that would be pleasing for my wife, but it opened my eyes and my heart to so much more. I’ve learned more than I thought possible and has stirred an awakening inside of me.

Tom O’Rourke

A great wake up call, which I needed! Reminded me of what I need to be doing on a daily basis to ground myself and ask love into my life.

Karen O’Rourke

The Love Retreat brought me to a place of peace and serenity. I received new insights plus validation to several processes I’m working on. Very “right on” to everyday life. Thank you, Sara, for organizing this event.

Shannon White

 

Thank you Sara for a wonderful retreat. Everything flowed so beautifully that I left there feeling rested and rejuvenated.  I appreciate the many opportunities attendees were provided to receive supportive energy from the group and to interact with the presenters.  I look forward to future Awakening in Austin retreats!

Donna Fisher

 

Your retreat was enjoyable… The small group setting made it more intimate… a wonderful way to get to know others in the community including the speakers on a one to one basis. I loved how you broke up the day with raffles, meditations and more. The day just moved on in a wonderful flow and I found myself excitedly anticipating what would come next…thanks for the great day….I’m looking forward to more!

The Awakening in Austin Retreat was a magical day full of transformation and healing. Sara did an amazing job holding space and preparing such a wonderful day and event.  The variation of presenters and exercises we were offered allowed healing on many different levels as well as different areas of our lives.  I highly recommend Awakening in Austin Retreats as well as Sara Blumenfeld. 

Stacie Codino

 

This is the time for rapid growth in consciousness, and when we are ready, the opportunities present themselves.  One wonderful opportunity I recently experienced was the Awakening in Austin retreat at Unity in the Hills.  It was a power-packed day, with wonderful and inspiring speakers, and exercises that left me energized and provided me new tools for my life journey.  Thank you, Sara.  You are a true beacon of light and love.  I look forward to participating in your up-coming events.

Samantha Vanderslice

 

Thank you for inviting me to your  Awakening Retreat.  The program far exceeded my expectations.  Each speaker was very knowledgeable and credible, and more importantly to me, genuine.  I especially appreciated that each speaker was able to build on the previous topic and provide a very cohesive program that was educational, enlightening and entertaining. I was very impressed with your ability to maintain your agenda so well. From starting on time, to breaks, exercises, lunch and  right through ending when scheduled with so much going on was a real feat.  You should be very proud of the entire program.  I hope I will be able to attend your next retreat in June.

Anthony Baldwin

 

I was so honored to speak at the very first Awakening in Austin Retreat…The Power of Love. Sara is a wonderful host, both in person and on the air, as well as an amazing organizer and energizer! She did a beautiful job of bringing just the right energies together, attracting an exquisite group of people to work with us. It was a Divine experience…I’d do it again in a Soul-beat!

Kate Bares-Johnson

 

What a magical experience The Power of Love (Awakening in Austin Retreat) was! I returned home filled with understanding and awe with all I learned from the incredible speakers Sara put together! I look forward to the next retreat she holds, on The Power of Creating. Thank you, Sara, for the opportunity to meet these incredible speakers, and expand my knowledge and understanding of various types of love.

Diane Felts

 

Sara’s Awakening in Austin Retreat in March was a spectacular, love-filled day. Her gentle, organized and harmonious energy truly brings many people from diverse backgrounds together at these events, infusing everyone present with new ways to create change and shifts in their lives. The speakers shared powerful tools and tips and we actually experienced transformative meditations and high-vibration energy for healing. I highly recommend booking your next “Healing Day” at the retreat in June–a lot of fun–and powerful as you immerse your being-ness in this rich healing atmosphere.

Dahlia Rondeau, CTHP 

 

The first Awakening in Austin Retreat was a community experience laden with opportunities for personal insights. It was an honor to speak on a subject of my passion – entrepreneuring – and introduce fresh perspective on how to relate to business. I encourage others to join the fun with the next one!

Lynn Scheurell

 

The benefits to me from the Awakening in Austin Retreat in March are ongoing!  One improvement in my life is that I started interacting with my guardian angels. In the past I recall receiving answers and even extreme intervention from “unseen friends” in times of crisis, but Stacie’s talk freed me to interact with these angels on a regular basis to move my life and business ahead.    Lynn Scheurell’s talk on “business love” made me realize my business has chakras — what a great concept to work with!  The other presentations were just as great.  Thank you, Sara, for finding the best presenters for your event  — they were so gifted, thought-provoking, and genuinely helpful!
