The Power of
Pause Retreat

David Werdiger and MeTreat Retreats invite you to pause

About the Retreat

This is a small, private retreat for people who have built a great deal and somehow ended up with little control over their own time. For three days at the Cleveland Estate, you’ll be one of ten, with twenty-four hours completely free of screens, with space to enjoy long meals and conversation, guided sessions on attention and rest, and time to reflect and think. Most people leave with one clear decision they’d been putting off. If that’s what you’ve been missing, register your interest below and a member of the team will be in touch.
