Awaken into Heart Center: These workshops guide participants in awakening their heart’s center, promoting self-love, compassion, and emotional balance.
Creative Therapy: Creative Therapy is a healing session that utilizes art, movement, or other creative outlets to explore and process emotions, release stress, and foster self-expression. It provides a safe and transformative space for individuals to connect with their inner selves through artistic means.
Sound Healing: Sound Healing is a meditative practice that uses soothing sounds, such as singing bowls, gongs, or chants, to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and align the body’s energy. It involves immersing participants in harmonious vibrations to facilitate physical and emotional well-being.

This sacred space fosters a sense of community, empowerment, and spiritual connection among women participants.
Kundalini Activation: The Kundalini Activation process is a spiritual journey aimed at awakening the Kundalini energy believed to be dormant at the base of the spine.
