I have taught and used the HOM before, but this bootcamp is the most intense experience I've had for some time.
Karen Boyes and her presenters were incredible, and she is so skillful at guiding people through their own personal journeys - we emerged triumphant on Tuesday from breaking planks of pine with our bare hands, and many of us were emotional and tearful on Wednesday after a visualisation that took us face to face with our childhood self.
Thursday's presentations were all fabulous - it is amazing what we can pull together under time pressure, in a group of people that were strangers to us at 9am on Monday but feel like old friends now.
I can't wait to receive my letter to myself in 3 months time. It's a strategy that I think i might start using with myself a bit more often, and also with the participants on our workshops. I think my mum and dad might start to receive a few letters that they have to hold onto and then post back at a later date!
I'm so glad I went.
And i'm equally glad that I'm home again now. Cuddling my husband yesterday, and kissing my boys (much to their disgust!) was just fantastic. Sometimes it's good to spend some time apart, so that you can enjoy getting back together again.
And tomorrow, we're having a spontaneous day in Wellington to see the NZIP annual conference exhibition. Such fun! Bring it on!
