What to Expect
🎨 Creative Crafting & Connection
We’ll start the afternoon with an immersive, hands-on crafting session led by Essie Studio. Connect with a welcoming community of women, chat, and make something beautiful to take home with you.
🧠 Nervous System Reset & Practical Psychoeducation

Shift out of fight-or-flight mode using gentle somatic exercises, breathwork, and grounding techniques designed to calm your mind and settle physical tension.
🌙 Guided Relaxation & Hypnosis
