It’s been two years since I moved to Victoria. I am very grateful to live in such a beautiful, friendly, relaxed city! I am especially grateful for the sense of community I feel in this city and the communities I have become an active part of, namely The Gettin’ Higher Choir and Qi-Gong community.
It’s been three years since I published the award-winning book, The Mini-Retreat Solution. With over 80 ways to relax quickly, my book helps reduce stress, increase productivity and develop peace of mind, no matter where you are and how busy your life . I am filled with pride and joy when I think about the positive difference The Mini-Retreat Solution is making in so many people’s lives!
What better way is there to strengthen our community than to empower our youth? – I decided to launch a fundraiser for The Power of Hope, the local community project we support with the Gettin’ Higher Choir. The Power of Hope delivers arts-based experiential learning programs for teens from diverse cultures and socioeconomic backgrounds who want to take an active role in creating a positive future, develop their leadership skills and build stronger communities.

Between now and December 31st, I will donate $10 of every copy of my book, The Mini-Retreat Solution purchased directly from my website* or in person to The Power of Hope.
My goal is to raise $400, subsidizing one teen from a low-income family to go to camp next summer.
Enjoy contributing to The Power of Hope by buying your own copy or a few copies of The Mini-Retreat Solution today.
Thank you for your support!
*Sorry, purchases through Amazon will not contribute to the fundraiser. You are of course most welcome to purchase with Amazon!
Thank you for all your support!
Over twenty copies of The Mini-Retreat Solution have been sold already, resulting in more than $200 for The Power of Hope!
With gratitude,

Thank you for all your support!
I am proud to announce that I have already exceeded my fundraising goal of $400 for The Power of Hope. With 46 books sold, $460 have been raised for The Power of Hope.
I will continue to contribute $10 for each book sale until December 31. My new goal is to raise $800 for The Power of Hope, supporting two teens from low-income families to go to camp next year.
Thank you for your continued support as you think about your friends and family who would greatly benefit from receiving the gift of Mini-Retreats this season.
With gratitude,
Julia :)
