The Sacred Pause is a three-day retreat designed to honor pregnancy as a powerful, natural and deep human experience. In a world (especially in places like Dubai) where birth can often feel clinical or disconnected, this retreat invites you to reclaim your inner wisdom, reconnect with your body and remember that birth is a natural and physiological process.
Dates: 30th January - 1st February 2026
Location: Hatta, UAE
THIS RETREAT INVITES YOU TO
