Mindful Leadership for the 21st Century

October 13 - October 17, 2021

Janice Marturano

As leaders in an organization, we are charged with the responsibility of creating environments in which our colleagues and teams are nurtured and energized, our organizations innovate and flourish and the relationship with our consumers/clients/ patients/customers is built on a foundation of mutual trust and satisfaction.This is quite a complex assignment in a world and global economy that measures time in internet seconds, is increasingly interdependent and relational, and dedicates little or no time toward the development of presence and insight in its leaders. This retreat is an opportunity for leaders to experientially explore mindful leadership training as a systematic discipline that cultivates our innate ability to be focused, clear, creative and compassionate. Organizational leaders suggest that mindful leadership training and practice has assisted them in learning to:
  • Direct and sustain attention,
  • Become less reactive,
  • See past their filters and conditioning,
  • Feel more connected to those around them,
  • “Catch” emerging insights and innovative ideas, and deliberately stop – often in the midst of fast-paced, highly charged situations – and ask themselves the question, “What is called for now?” rather than falling back on habitual patterns and habits.
 Join Janice Marturano at the beautiful Menla Retreat Center to experience your mindful leadership journey through meditations, leadership reflections and small group dialogue.This intensive 5-day retreat, taught for more than 15 years, provides an opportunity for leaders to learn about, and more importantly, to experience mindfulness and mindful leadership training. The spaces available for this retreat are very limited so please reserve your space as quickly as possible.

UPCOMING EVENTS

MENLA RETREATS

I just returned from an over-night stay at the Menia Retreat Center.  During that time, I was very fortunate to have had four services at the beautiful Dewa Spa.All of them were amazing, but I really have to take a few minutes to write about Sarite Sanders who did Craniosacral Therapy and Nicole Bernhardt who provided Extended KuNye Massage.

Both of these women are gifted practitioners who clearly are dedicated to their healing modalities.  Sarite is not just a healer but a teacher–a very powerful combination for a true wellness practitioner. She even suggested movement exercises that I could do at home to help with an old injury–one I had not told her about, but that she “felt” as she worked on my body. Both of these women took time to explain what and why they were doing certain things and thus were able to create a very safe environment for healing. Thank you for a truly lovely experience.

“Wonderful experience in a beautiful setting. The massage with Jason was excellent. I left feeling completely relaxed and calm. Thank you!”

“Deep in the Catskill Mountains exists a very special place—the Dewa Spa at Menla. On a snowy, late winter afternoon there is nothing better than a long deep soak in one of their tubs infused with the 5 Nectars bath blend. The tranquil sounds of this hidden valley can be heard through a cracked window—the Pantherkill Stream and the sweet symphony of our bird friends chattering about the upcoming spring. This is the perfect place to leave the world behind for as long as possible!”
