Happy Life Retreat Participant Testimonials
"Dawn is such a gifted teacher. It was my first retreat and certainly will not be my last!!" - Roseanne Tarantino
"The happiness retreat was a great experience! I enjoyed the mediation practices, discussions on happiness and most of all being surrounded by like minded people! The venue for the retreat was beautiful and right on a beach! Looking forward to the next retreat!" - Kaitlyn Montague
"The weekend "Get Happy" retreat in Montauk with Dawn did exactly what it intended in its title! I didnt know any of the other women in attendance before this weekend, but within several hours we were all chatting and laughing over dinner like we had known one another for years. The discussion we had in Dawn's lectures was uniting, thought-provoking, and there was an established comfort that we all felt in order to share our own personal thoughts and feelings. The morning mediation and yoga practice was once again another place we all came together as women, practicing "permission to be human" ourselves...united through our yoga community at Peaceful Warrior. Thank you Dawn!" ~ Missy de Bruin-Rath
"Still soaking in the benefits of this weekend's Peaceful Warrior 'Happiness Retreat' at the exceptional Montauk Lake house! Dawn Stidd is truly gifted at encouraging people to find their own power that is "grounded in optimism." It was exciting to extend our community off our mats with Dawn and can't wait till the 'Happiness Reunion' in June!" During the bonfire, we saw shooting stars in the Montauk Night Sky. It was the icing on the cake! Perfecto! -Stephanie Neidhart
