Manakaya Balance
Mission & Vision
This retreat organization exists to create safe, intimate spaces where women can slow down, reconnect with their bodies, and remember who they are beneath pressure, expectations, and constant doing.
My vision is to support women who are high-achieving, sensitive, and often disconnected from themselves women who may feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or stuck, and who sense that something deeper is asking for their attention.
Through somatic practices, nervous system regulation, nature, and gentle community, these retreats offer a different way of healing not by fixing or pushing, but by listening, resting, and returning to the body.
I believe the body holds deep wisdom. When women feel safe enough to listen, clarity, softness, and balance naturally begin to return.
