Commit to your value

I want to thank Adrivo: The Travel Session and the DC Full Wellness Spectrum community for a great, recent weekend retreat. I am proud to be apart of such a community. Adrivo is designed to make weekend retreats available to DC area residents who need to get away for the hustle and bustle of hectic lives and take a moment to regroup.

During the weekend, we uncovered the storyteller in us and how to move beyond stress by connecting body, mind and emotions. There were collective definitions of spirit connection and commitments by everyone attending on how that would look like for them moving forward. We got reminded of the importance of play and the artists in all of us. We danced zumba and net walked; yes, net walk, networking while walking. There was yoga and stretching too.

Discussions of mindfulness occurred as well as a cooking demo. We crumpled up different dollar bills and recognized how their value will not change. A brief getaway within community demonstrates commitment to our value. I value myself enough to believe in and practice wellness. I value myself enough to value community especially one that is made up of like minded knowledgeable folks. I value myself enough to take a moment for myself.

The community builder in me collected and encouraged everyone to share their bearthday. I still remember everyone’s bearthday. It was great to have start up enthusiasts present too. The fact that entrepreneurs were present encouraging our community of wellness shows how they value themselves and us as a community.

Commit to your value and what you bring to the table. As Deborah reminded us, “No one can take that away from you.” Everyone has a contribution to make. You show you commitment to your value by joining our community. You can also demonstrate it by joining us at the next Adrivo: the travel session retreat. Maybe I will see you there!
