Soft Life Sunday Sessions
Join OYA Retreats for this community event!
"Healing ourselves is not the end of the line, but brings us into relationship with others, and allows us to do the work that brings healing to the wider world." ~ Prentis Hemphill
Carve out time for rest and renewal with Soft Life Sundays, a sanctuary designed for Black women and women of colour. Each session offers a unique opportunity to minimise stress, nurture your wellbeing, and explore practices that nourish your body, mind and spirit.
What to expect
The event is designed with our community in mind.
Join us as we invite spaciousness into the body, gently shedding the busyness of summer and welcoming the slow, intentional transition into autumn. Ankita offers this Soft Life Sunday as an opportunity to honour natural cycles—allowing closures, creating space for reflection and planting seeds of new intention. Through guided somatic movement, breathwork, and meditation, we’ll tune into the internal landscape and reconnect with a sense of ease and embodiment.
Course Date
This is a community session and will complete in one day - 7th September.
