OUR VISION
I'm Haydi, a woman, mother, wife, mentor, energy worker, feminine wisdom & birth keeper and the creator of The Feminine Wisdom Retreat.
I believe that our souls have chosen the path of feminine existence. Understanding ourselves, our bodies, and our unique histories is vital for us to reach our fullest potential. Each of us is unique, so I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. My goal is to support you on your journey to unlock your inner wisdom, helping you rediscover what womanhood means to you.
Becoming a mother brought me a whole new perspective. My journey to explore what it truly means to be a woman began. I've discovered and continue to learn about ancient traditions, rituals, our bodies, our connection to the earth, and our natural energy, all contributing to this understanding. It has brought me joy, health, and a deeper sense of self. I've been surprised by how much essential wisdom we often miss growing up as modern women.
In 2023, the first Pregnancy Wisdom Retreat, inspired by my son Nour, was a success. Witnessing the transformation of the women who attended, many of whom have since given birth, inspired me to create the Feminine Wisdom Retreat. I want every woman to experience the profound insights and practices shared during our time together.
INITATION
Entering significant female life transitions like menstruation, birth, and menopause carries great importance. We share ancient wisdom and ceremony to assist you in embracing these transitions consciously and joyfully.
SEXUAL ENERGY
Explore the depths of your life force energy, going beyond societal norms. Learn to connect with this energy, utilizing it for healing, activation, and creation.
MOTHERHOOD
Whether you have, want, or don't desire children, all women embody a life-giving force. Discover how to nurture this energy physically, energetically, and spiritually. Learn about your maternal ancestry, your connection to the earth, and how to best care for your holistic well-being: body, mind, and soul.
6 INSPIRATIONAL DAYS
During the retreat, we will slow down, go inside, receive, and use the ancient and modern tools available to connect with your body, womb, mother earth, and the phase of life you are in, whether young and curious, pregnant, a mother, or elder.
