Taking our emotional and spiritual health seriously begins with ourselves and the women in our community.

As women, we naturally make time for connection, embracing our loved ones with an open heart and a listening ear. We are nurturers, leaders and guides who deeply honor having a safe place to be our ultimate feminine selves.

Having a space to gather together and focus on health, wellness and spirituality brings a breath of calm in our busy, hectic lives. These 8 centers aim to help women learn and grow from one another in a  holistic and modern way.
