Come prepare your heart and mind for the New Year with When Women Come to Pray. We will gather for an enriching day of stillness, simplicity, and soul-centered connection at the beautiful Stillpoint Wellness in Asheville. This retreat is an invitation to slow down, soften, and return to your natural rhythm—one of presence, ease, and quiet joy.

Through music, yoga practices, gentle meditation, restorative art-making, and moments of shared reflection, we’ll explore what it means to create spaciousness inside and out. Together, we’ll tend to the subtle art of being rather than doing, allowing the wisdom of stillness to realign us with what truly matters.
A nourishing lunch will be provided, and all materials for the day’s creative and contemplative practices will be included.
Come as you are. Leave feeling replenished, grounded, and centered in simplicity.
Led by Luna Ray, Laura Billings, and Jennifer White.
