Description

Join NSWC and enjoy a day of meditation, yoga, seminars and so much more. Let's learn to "Just Be" - together. It's no secret that women of color have the undue burden of navigating a world that endlessly creates barriers for us. Nevertheless, we continue to forge our own paths, however and wherever possible. Wearing multiple hats, we strive to provide the best in all the spaces we inhabit, whether at home, work, or our community. But how can we continually provide our best every day if we don't care for ourselves? Do we even know how to do so? We are often left so little time to explore every facet of our existence that even these questions are hard to answer. The first annual North Shore Women of Color Retreat aims to provide you with a safe space focused on finding meaning, healing, support, and trust amongst women of color. This year’s theme asks women of color to explore what it means to ”just be”. Through various sessions and activities, you will have an opportunity to explore how and what it means to just exist in this world and ask ourselves what blocks us from just existing as we are. Unapologetically. Join us for a day of exploration: Saturday, June 25th, from 8 am to 7:30 pm. Patton Homestead, 650 Asbury St, South Hamilton, MA 01982.
