Set in the natural beauty of Les Labadous in the South of France, this retreat offers a chance to restore balance, renew your energy, and return to yourself. Grounded in the Six Steps to Freedom Process, every Choose Again retreat is an immersive wellness experience created to help you reset mind and body while also giving you practical tools to support your wellbeing long after you go home.

Over the course of two weeks, you can take part in two back-to-back workshops and use the days in between to rest, reflect, meditate, or explore the stunning landscapes of Southern France.

Healing Mind and Body in the South of France

At the heart of each retreat is the Six Steps to Freedom, a clear and effective therapeutic method for uncovering and transforming the deeper causes of recurring negative patterns. This process brings together Core Belief Work from CBT with mindfulness and forgiveness practices inspired by universal spiritual teachings. Through this simple yet powerful approach to healing, you will learn how to observe your thoughts and emotions, identify limiting core beliefs formed in childhood, and move toward greater inner peace and clarity.

The Six Steps to Freedom is introduced and practiced in daily therapeutic processing circles, supported by a team of highly trained counsellors. With a maximum of 12 participants per workshop and an almost 1-to-2 counsellor-client ratio, each guest benefits from daily opportunities for personal processing, along with the chance to learn from others in a safe, confidential, and encouraging setting.

As a result, you develop greater awareness of habitual thought patterns and familiar ways of responding to life’s challenges, opening the door to a new perspective and a stronger sense of purpose in every situation. This deeper connection to self and clearer direction form the basis for a rich and meaningful life.

The mental wellness journey is complemented by a thoughtfully designed program of experiential somatic and mindfulness practices. The somatic element is intended to help you integrate your insights, access deeper emotional states, and release hidden stress.

These accessible and proven practices also support ongoing self-care once you return home.
