			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size: large; color: #ff00ff;">transformational travel is happening right here and now!!</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size: large; color: #ff00ff;">the Moon Goddess retreat &#8211; be part of the transformation!</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large; color: #ff00ff;">Announcing a blissful rejuvenating retreat for women </span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large; color: #ff00ff;">in beautiful <strong>Ubud, Bali  26 September &#8211; 2 October  2012 </strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://katymercer.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Going-to-temple.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-906" title="Going to temple" src="http://katymercer.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Going-to-temple-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a><a href="http://katymercer.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/casa-jahe-sunset.jpg"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-907" title="casa jahe sunset" src="http://katymercer.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/casa-jahe-sunset-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>The retreat is named in honour of the Moon Goddess because on 30 September there will be a full moon in Bali and to celebrate there will be a Moon Goddess ceremony or Purnama. The ceremony calms the mind and cools our tempers as we receive gentle energy from the goddess. How appropriate!</p>
<p>Celebrate the energy of the Moon Goddess with us and if  you feel like you will be needing some pampering, relaxation and revitalising very soon then this is the trip for you. </p>
<p>This retreat is all about renewal, reawakening your senses, refreshing your mind, body and soul with daily yoga, meditation and creative visualisations, some personal coaching, fabulous food in the restaurants of Ubud, a cooking class, a trip to the Elephant temple and the Water temple during Purnama , facial and massage do I need to say more???!! </p>
<p>Every time I go to Bali I arrive in impatient, rushing big city mode, you know, wanting everything to happen immediately or sooner&#8230;&#8230;. and slowly, inexorably the island casts its spell&#8230;&#8230;.. my tension starts to dissipate, I can feel my mind and my body relaxing day by day, hour by hour until I actually stop wearing a watch, I spend time appreciating the natural beauty around me and the sun slowly setting over the palm trees. Gradually the black and grey of city life disappears and find I&#8217;m floating around in flowing, colourful clothes with strands of beads, flowers in my hair and a blissful look on my face. Life feels good. I sleep deeply. I feel incredibly grateful.</p>
<p>You can have this too! Experience a personal transformation!</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t worry if you&#8217;ve never meditated before the moon goddess retreat is ideal for first time meditators as you will be taught a variety of different meditation and relaxation techniques and you don&#8217;t have to sit in the lotus position either! The morning yoga session is for beginners too and more about stretching and revitalising the body. </p>
<p>check out these photos from my last trip to Ubud on my <a title="Flickr page" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kmenterprises/sets/72157629871661717/">Flickr page </a> to get a feel for the kind of sights you will see and experience </p>
<p><strong>once you&#8217;re fabulously refreshed and reinvigorated stay on in Ubud after the tour for </strong><strong>the <a href="http://www.ubudwritersfestival.com/">Ubud Writers and Readers Festival </a> 3- 7 October 2012</strong></p>
<p><strong>Don&#8217;t miss out as I am only taking 12 women with me for this transformational travel  experience</strong></p>
<p><strong>now check out my transformational travel tour page on my website <a href="http://www.katymercer.com.au">www.katymercer.com.au</a> for more details and then <a href="http://mercer.katy@gmail.com">email </a>me for more information and to register</strong></p>
