Your retreat will be led by Sesame Unlu, Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and Lala Naidu, specializing in Ayurvedic Nutrition and Yoga Nidra. Our intent is to empower women by coming together and sharing knowledge and tools from two of the world's major healing systems. We will dive into the energetic physiology of women, looking at the natural, hormonal and energetic shifts we experience as women and explore ways to create greater health, energy and balance. For many, the need and longing for community is strong - it is for us, and that is one of the reasons why we felt inspired to host a Women's Wellness Retreat on Maui. We hope to see you there.
Our four days together will be filled with inspiring lectures, hands on workshops and delicious organic meals. Shortly upon arrival to what is known as "Upcountry" Maui you will be welcomed with a traditional Hawaiian blessing and ceremony. Each afternoon you will also have some free time in between lectures and meals. You may wish to just relax and enjoy what the retreat center has to offer, receive a massage or go enjoy the many wonders of Maui. The retreat center is centrally located making it easy to explore nearby waterfalls and beaches.
