Why Emotional Awareness Matters
Plant medicine retreats can stir deep emotions — joy, grief, fear, love — often all in the same night. Without tools to stay aware and grounded, these emotions can feel overwhelming. That’s why Peace Life includes Daily Emotional Check-Ins, a simple but powerful way to monitor and support your inner state.
By checking in daily, you create a habit of self-awareness that strengthens both retreat preparation and post-retreat integration.
Emotional Check-Ins for Retreat Preparation
Before retreat, emotional check-ins help you:
Notice patterns in your mood or emotional triggers.
Clarify your readiness for the ceremony environment.
Align with your intentions, knowing which emotions you want to release or embrace.
Emotional Check-Ins for Post-Retreat Integration
After retreat, check-ins become a lifeline:
Track how your emotions shift as you process ceremony insights.
Ground breakthroughs by noticing when old habits resurface.
Provide a record of emotional growth you can review alongside journaling and chakra assessments.
