ROOTED IN HER
rooted in the body, reclaiming her strength
A RETREAT FOR WOMEN HONORING BODY AND RHYTHM
DATES: 27 - 29 March
LOCATION: Al Khatim Desert (Abu Dhabi)
We live in a world that asks women to perform as if we are linear beings, yet the feminine body is not linear. It is cyclical, rhythmic, intelligent and deeply responsive. A woman’s health is inseparable from her cycle, and when we understand and honor this natural rhythm, everything begins to shift: our energy, our emotions, our creativity and our sense of self.
Have you ever stopped to consider how much money, time and hope you’ve invested in supplements, hormones, quick fixes, and chemicals - without ever being invited to understand the root? Without being taught how your body actually works? A healthy cycle is not just about menstruation; it is a vital sign of overall wellbeing. It reflects the state of your hormones, nervous system, digestion, stress levels and emotional health. When the cycle is supported, the body knows how to heal, regulate and restore itself.
This retreat is an invitation to return to your body’s wisdom. To learn how to listen, to work with your natural rhythms instead of fighting them and to reconnect with the feminine intelligence that has always been there. Through education, embodiment and shared experience, we create space for deep understanding, sustainable health and a renewed relationship with your cycle and with yourself.
