A gentle four-hour retreat for women who have been carrying a lot — and are ready for space to simply be.
Register for the Retreat
Maybe you've become incredibly good at responding to the needs, expectations, and responsibilities around you.
You show up. You handle what needs to be handled. You carry what needs to be carried.
And somewhere in the middle of doing life, you may have realized that you haven't had much space to simply be with yourself.
Maybe you feel overwhelmed.
Maybe life actually looks good from the outside, but you still feel far away from yourself.
Or maybe there's simply a quiet sense that there has to be another way to experience your life, even if you can't quite put words to it yet.
You don't need to arrive knowing exactly what you need. You only need enough space to begin listening.
This retreat is designed as a gentle four-hour exhale — a thoughtfully curated space to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with yourself.
Step away from the pace of everyday life and settle into an atmosphere that feels intentional, welcoming, and unhurried.
Through reflection, meditation, breath, and quiet, begin noticing what has been present beneath the surface.
Create room to hear yourself more clearly, reconnect with your own wisdom, and carry something meaningful home with you.
The experience unfolds with enough structure to feel held, and enough spaciousness to let you be present with what arises.
The experience is supported by practices and moments that invite you to settle, reflect, receive, and reconnect.
Each element is woven into the flow of the retreat rather than experienced as a separate activity.
Presence isn't one activity on the itinerary.
It's the atmosphere of the experience.
While every woman's experience will be her own, the retreat is designed to support women in leaving with:
There is no pressure to leave with answers, a plan, or a breakthrough. Sometimes simply hearing yourself a little more clearly is enough.
Attendance will be intentionally limited to preserve the intimacy, spaciousness, and personal nature of the experience.
I'm Laren — a Mindfulness & Embodiment Coach and founder of Black Girl Healing Softly®.
After nearly two decades in corporate life, I found myself looking more closely at the way I had been living — achieving, carrying, and doing what needed to be done, while realizing how easy it had become to move through life without always being fully present inside of it.
Healing Softly grew from that questioning and from my own practice of noticing the patterns, beliefs, and expectations shaping how I was experiencing my life.
Today, I create space for women to slow down long enough to notice what is true for them beneath the noise, the expectations, and the ways they may have learned to move through the world. I'm especially interested in what happens when we begin to recognize the foundation we've been living from — and interrupt the patterns that no longer feel true.
Come experience what it feels like to pause long enough to hear yourself again.
Register for the RetreatHealing Softly is grateful for aligned partners who believe in creating intentional spaces where women can pause, reconnect, and experience themselves differently.
