Black + Free in OBX Retreat
Rest. Reflect. Reset
April 28th - May 2nd, 2024
About
The focus of this retreat is REST.
To disconnect from your “real” life and reconnect to you, your highest self
We live in a time and culture where rest is extremely undervalued. Instead we value productivity, busyness, accomplishments and externally focused “success.”
We value doing rather than being. We value physical appearance rather than internal wellness. So we do more, to have more and we are exhausted, burnt out and on-edge.
There has been a lot going on over the past 2 years, and honestly over your entire life span.
From worries about COVID, police brutality, weather, climate change, work, money, family, the list goes on and on and on.
When we are constantly doing and inundated with worry, stress, information and endless things to “do” we end up overworked, exhausted and burnt out, and not our best selves.
It’s not a good look, sis.
When was the last time that you were able to feel rested and settled in your body?
When was the last time you were able to truly relax and getaway? While being surrounded by a group of amazing and supportive Black women?
Rest is an essential and powerful practice that results in a deeper connection to ourselves, others, the universe and the divine.
Rest is healing
Rest is self-love
Rest is liberation
Rest is resistance
Rest is reparations
We rest in order to be present with our current experience and we rest in order to dream, imagine and create liberation.
We rest for our ancestors and friends/family that didn’t/don’t have access to rest.
We rest as an act of resistance to white supremacy, patriarchy, capitalism, consumerism etc that seeks to rob us of our ability to rest.
Rest gives us access to a different way of being, it allows us to consider where we are holding tension mentally, physically and emotionally. It allows us the space to consider what is working and what is not.
We have designed this rest retreat for you to leave feeling rested, empowered, loved, grateful and with a new appreciation and/or understanding for taking time to rest.
