About The Retreats...

Kathleen S. McGowan, 

D.D.,C.M.A.,C.N.C.,R.M., N.A.M.W. 

Kathleen McGowan is a gifted inspirational speaker and educator who delivers both motivation and inspiration from the depths of her heart to her audiences and clients. The messages that flow from her are genuine and truly transformational!

The depth of Kathleen's insight and teachings as a health and nutrition mentor, healer and spiritual teacher comes from spending more than 35 years specializing in nutrition, natural medicine, energetic and spiritual healing. In addition to her extensive professional experience, the transformational insights she shares with others comes from a place of personal experience in her own life's journey and her continued spiritual growth that reaches over decades. 

Kathleen is known for her deep faith, kindness, compassion, empathy and for her health and spiritual teachings/facilitation. Her profound yet simple and straightforward style of inspirational communication has already helped countless people throughout the world find health, healing, balance, inner peace and realization of their Higher-self. 

Kathleen's touch on people's lives encompassing health, healthy weight loss/release, and one's nutritional needs are centered around identifying areas of stagnate/blocked energy in the body, understanding them and then teaching methods of release. This 'release' is one of the instrumental steps for allowing healing to transpire that Kathleen teaches.

In the journey of healing the body, mind and spirit, Kathleen teaches that expansion of consciousness and continued spiritual awakening/growth is necessary in order to obtain and sustain vibrant health, happiness and inner peace. She deeply believes that it is also necessary for discovering one's True-Being and Higher purpose.

Kathleen is an advocate for freedom from abuse, (human & animal); healing from the aftermath of abuse, and awareness of the worldwide human-trafficking epidemic of monumental tragedy. Her special calling and passion is in helping those who currently are existing in non-healthy/toxic/abusive (verbally and/or physical) environments and for those who have already found a way to have removed themselves from such environments; yet continue to experience the aftermath, cyclical damaging effects and behaviors that are created when having lived/(survived) through such controlling, life/energy-robbing experiences; particularly when such is caused by (currently having or have had) in their life, a person(s) who is a narcissist, sociopath or pathological liar.

In deeply and personally understanding the dynamics and effects... physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually that take hold within a person and within their life when having survived the toxic life-robbing drama that transpires when being the target of narcissistic abuse; Kathleen was led in her heart and spirit to create this series of teachings, specifically her 'Connecting-the-Dots' (CTD)teachings. The (CTD) teachings are for those who continue to search for a greater understanding to the 'whys' to such abuse; those who are in need of healing and for those who desire to create a new happy and fulfilling life for themselves... a life where they no longer define themselves by their past and past conditioning. 

The 'Connecting-the-Dots' (CTD) teachings are about HOPE. They're about 'Hope' because when you have been the target of narcissistic abuse, regaining HOPE and gaining the belief that 'YOU' will heal , and that 'YOUR LIFE'  can be healed... is essential to you in creating a new healthy, happy and fulfilled life. Belief that healing from this area of trauma is actually possible is vital, as to allow one to finally move forward with their life! 

This path of healing is personally known by the creator of the 'Connecting-the-Dots'  teachings... Kathleen S. McGowan.

In continuing in Kathleen's life's purpose and path of helping others, having over thirty-five years of experience in the medical, natural medicine, nutrition and energy healing fields, Kathleen is also the creator of the 'Health,  Healing and Empowerment' teachings. These teachings focus on the tangible aspects of what is needed to be done in our daily life from a health and nutrition standpoint. This teaching is a stand-alone training, however, it is an ideal foundation for attending Kathleen's 'Stepping Into True-Being' teachings.

The 'Stepping Into True-Being' teachings were also created by Kathleen, based upon her many years of professional experience in assisting a countless number of people over the years; learned knowledge, as well as her own personal experience. Kathleen understands form a very personal experience and at a deep level how the Body, Mind and Spirit are directly connected and why understanding this connection is essential for having, and maintaining good health. 

Kathleen understands at a very deep and personal level that until a person takes the journey to 'Transcend the necessary Restrictive Barriers' that are holding them from 'Stepping Into their True-Being', that it is next to impossible to have true peace and freedom of mind, body and spirit, and to live at one's heightened potential.

Kathleen has spent considerable time over the years in Europe and in her experience in energy healing. She combines both her innate and learned knowledge and experience together with many of her teachings learned in Europe to assist others in their healing. Kathleen has traveled extensively speaking and training, as well as in her capacity as wellness mentor/advisor. 

In addition to live audience speaking engagements, Kathleen has been a featured television and radio-talk-show educator on health and wellness, nutrition, environmental issues, freedom from abuse and of Human rights, both domestically and abroad. She is a health & wellness mentor, healer and spiritual teacher whose foundation is solidly grounded in faith, genuine caring and love. 

Kathleen's desire and intention is to allow the 'Light' to shine through her, as to heal, expand consciousness and love, and to help end suffering of humans and animals, globally.

1) The Health, Healing and Empowerment teachings  are for all those who genuinely want to learn what to do for themselves and their families in order to have good health. The trainings are for individuals who have come to understand that there is no-one better than themself to have the knowledge for what is going on with their body and health and who are ready to accept the fact that the only way to have and maintain good health for themselves and family, is to take responsibility for doing so. 

These teachings cover not only the basics of nutrition, i.e. understanding how to read labels of what you eat and drink, whole-food nutritional supplements vs potentially poisonous synthetic vitamin supplementation, the importance of the quality of water you drink and of its alkalinity or acidity; this teaching also provides the information that a person must understand in order to 'work with their body, instead of against it', particularly in regards to once and for all understanding the reasons and dynamics to the yo-yo of dieting cycle; enzyme deficiencies, low energy, excessive chatter in the brain, body type and much more.
