SUMMARY:Zen In The Wild
DESCRIPTION:Are you ready for an adventure and the experience of a lifetime? \nKristi Tate & Joëlle Sleebos will host a safari yoga retreat (4 nights) at Sashwa in the Greater Kruger in South Africa. What better setting to reconnect with yourself\, connect with like-minded nature & yoga lovers and get a chance to be part and observe the most magnificent animals on earth. \nAccommodation:\nSashwa River of Stars takes its name from the majestic river we overlook. As the sunlight sparkles and shimmers on the flowing water\, it mirrors the Milky Way’s ethereal beauty visible in the night sky—a phenomenon often referred to as the River of Stars. Nestled in a pristine wilderness oasis\, our lodge features exquisitely crafted suites\, each designed to blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings and offering opportunities to observe birdlife in the gardens and a diverse array of wildlife gathering at the water’s edge. \nTrue to its name\, the beautiful Olifants River (meaning “Elephant’s River”) frequently hosts large herds of elephants enjoying refreshing dips in its cool\, constantly flowing waters. As night descends\, let the symphony of hippos grunting and lions roaring serenade you to sleep—an unforgettable African experience that will captivate your heart forever. \nAll rooms are very comfortable and equipped with all you need to relax\, rest and experience that deep sense of tranquility. \nYoga:\nWe will practice yoga in the morning (Vinyasa) and the evening (Yin) and you have the privilege to learn from two different teacher as both Kristi and Joëlle will be teaching the yoga classes. This is a all-level retreat – Beginners\, Intermediate and Advanced Practitioners are welcome. \nGame:\nEmbark on dawn or dusk safari drives across the private game reserve\, guided by skilled wilderness experts who share their wisdom\, insights and interpretations with us as we explore the land and encounter the wildlife that we share a home with. We embrace a culture of deep awareness and respect towards the wildlife and the wilderness we move through. Expect moments of silence and wonder\, appreciating both small creatures and larger wildlife. \nWhile encounters with “The Big 5” are possible\, our focus is on meaningful connections with all wildlife. Sashwa embraces the local Shangaan saying\, “a leopard chooses to reveal itself to us\,” reflecting our respect for nature’s mysteries. The reserve\, part of the Greater Kruger Biosphere\, allows wildlife to roam freely across over 2 million hectares.

SUMMARY:Urban Wellness Tribe – First Fridays Monthly Community Wellness Evenings | Durban
DESCRIPTION:Journey to Wellness: The Mind-Skin Connection \n10 am-12 pm July 18\, 2026 \nA 2-hour workshop led by Dr Gigi Rai\, hosted in collaboration with Kim @ The Skin Connection.  \nThe workshop is about four simple skills that support health and wellbeing: \n\nPaying attention to your mind.\nUsing a journal.\nDealing with emotions.\nBuilding everyday self-awareness.\n\nThese skills matter because stress affects inflammation and skin aging\, mindfulness practices like breathing and body awareness can help regulate stress\, and practical self-care planning helps participants leave with something actionable for both inner wellness and healthier skin. \nWorkshop purpose \nThis workshop explores the connection between inner wellness and skin health in a practical\, grounded way. It positions skincare not only as an outer ritual\, but as something influenced by stress\, rest\, emotional balance\, reflection\, and daily self-awareness. \nCore message \nThe workshop links wellness and skincare in a credible\, practical way: \n\nStress affects inflammation and skin aging.\nMindfulness practices such as breathing and body awareness can help regulate stress.\nJournaling supports reflection\, clarity\, and self-understanding.\nEmotional awareness supports healthier responses instead of overwhelm.\nPractical self-care planning helps participants leave with something realistic and actionable.\n\n2-hour workshop structure \n0:00–0:15 — Welcome and the mind-skin connection \nIntroduce the workshop as a guided exploration of how emotional wellbeing\, stress\, and self-awareness shape both internal health and visible skin health. Set the tone by naming the four pillars and explaining that the session is reflective\, practical\, and supportive. \n0:15–0:35 — Pillar 1: Paying attention to your mind \nFocus on noticing thoughts\, mental habits\, and stress patterns before they escalate. Include a short breathing or grounding exercise and a body-awareness practice to help participants experience how attention and regulation can create calm. \nSuggested prompt: “What has been occupying my mind lately\, and how does it affect my energy\, body\, and skin?” \n0:35–1:00 — Pillar 2: Using a journal \nGuide participants through reflective journaling as a simple tool for insight and release. Emphasize that journaling can help identify triggers\, patterns\, needs\, and supportive habits. \nSuggested prompts: \n\n“What has my skin been trying to tell me lately?”\n“When do I feel most depleted?”\n“What helps me feel calm\, restored\, and more like myself?”\n\n1:00–1:25 — Pillar 3: Dealing with emotions \nHelp participants notice\, name\, and work with emotions without shame or avoidance. This part of the workshop should normalize emotional experience while encouraging practical regulation skills. \nSuggested reflection: “What emotion have I been carrying that needs more acknowledgement\, space\, or care?” \n1:25–1:45 — Pillar 4: Building everyday self-awareness \nMove from reflection to pattern recognition. Encourage participants to notice daily cues in sleep\, stress\, nourishment\, body tension\, and skin changes. This is also where the skincare connection can be reinforced most clearly by inviting participants to consider how self-awareness improves the consistency and intention behind their daily skin rituals. \nSuggested reflection: “What do I notice in my body\, mood\, and skin when I am well — and what do I notice when I am not?” \n1:45–2:00 — Personal self-care plan and close \nClose with a practical action plan so the workshop ends with momentum rather than inspiration alone.

SUMMARY:Journey to Wellness: The Mind-Skin Connection
DESCRIPTION:A 2-hour workshop led by Dr Gigi Rai\, hosted in collaboration with Kim @ The Skin Connection.  \n  \nThe workshop is about four simple skills that support health and wellbeing: \n\nPaying attention to your mind.\nUsing a journal.\nDealing with emotions.\nBuilding everyday self-awareness.\n\nThese skills matter because stress affects inflammation and skin aging\, mindfulness practices like breathing and body awareness can help regulate stress\, and practical self-care planning helps participants leave with something actionable for both inner wellness and healthier skin. \nWorkshop purpose \nThis workshop explores the connection between inner wellness and skin health in a practical\, grounded way. It positions skincare not only as an outer ritual\, but as something influenced by stress\, rest\, emotional balance\, reflection\, and daily self-awareness. \nCore message \nThe workshop links wellness and skincare in a credible\, practical way: \n\nStress affects inflammation and skin aging.\nMindfulness practices such as breathing and body awareness can help regulate stress.\nJournaling supports reflection\, clarity\, and self-understanding.\nEmotional awareness supports healthier responses instead of overwhelm.\nPractical self-care planning helps participants leave with something realistic and actionable.\n\n2-hour workshop structure \n0:00–0:15 — Welcome and the mind-skin connection \nIntroduce the workshop as a guided exploration of how emotional wellbeing\, stress\, and self-awareness shape both internal health and visible skin health.

SUMMARY:Kisima 2026
DESCRIPTION:Hosted at Beneath the Baobabs in Kilifi\, Kisima Festival is Kenya’s only transformational wellbeing festival. A four-\nday celebration of healing\, creativity\, and connection. \nIn Kiswahili\, Kisima means “well”. A source of nourishment\, reflection\, and renewal. It’s a gathering space for\ncommunity and a return to what truly sustains us. \nSet within a breathtaking 50-acre baobab forest\, Kisima offers holistic workshops\, classes\, talks\, and panel\ndiscussions rooted in the five elements : Ignite\, Inspire\, Ground\, Flow\, and Ether. Explore all five throughout your\njourney and discover how they move within and around you.\nBut Kisima is more than a festival\, it’s a portal. Rooted in African ancestral wisdom and rising with the pulse of a\nnew earth\, Kisima is where the soul of East Africa gathers to heal\, dream\, dance\, and awaken. \nUnder the ancient baobabs\, through music\, movement\, ritual\, and radical expression\, we remember what it means\nto belong to the land\, to ourselves\, and to each other.\nIn 2026\, we journey into the theme of LOVE\nLove as vibration\, as medicine\, as connection to all life.\nLove that softens and strengthens\, that heals and unites.\nTogether\, we’ll explore the many forms of love: self-love\, communal love\, love for the Earth\, and the love that\nmoves through everything. \nThis is the well-being festival of the future: unapologetically African\, wildly alive\, and deeply unifying.\nWelcome to Kisima 2026 – The Love Edition: Return to the Heart \nFestival Highlights:\nHealing From Addiction – A brave session held by Fareed Diamond Khimani\nHorse Therapy – That’s right\, we have a whole a paddock with beautiful horses\nBreathwork and Cold Plunge – Discover the secrets of the iceman with Kenya’s only certified WHM instructor\nWellness workshops from sunrise to sunset\nAerial Silks – Learn circus skills and fly through the sky\nKids Classes all day long – Enjoy well- being workshops at any age\nDaily integration Sessions – Drop in on a session with G4MH to integrate the transformational sessions you are\nexperiencing with the support of therapists.\nKaya Elders Ceremony – Connect with local spiritual practices\nKilifi Culture- celebrating indigenous knowledge and practices of Mweria and Dhome\nLive Music Daily \nRates:\nSuper Early Bird Ticket: 5\,000 Ksh\nSuper Early Bird Kids’ Ticket: 2\,000 Ksh\nIncluded in the ticket:\nYou have unlimited access to all workshops\, events and classes as well as access to all areas of the venue.
