Wellness Retreat for Women of Lebanon ❤️

*Our goal is 3K in 3 days! We can do it!* 

Hello!

My name is Sarah & I’m a Lebanese American, living in Los Angeles. I practice coaching and just graduated with my masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy.

 

After moving from Lebanon six years ago, the country’s overall wellbeing has only been getting worse and more painful to witness from across the globe.

 

In December 2020, my friend and I fundraised $18,000 as well as a Cargo shipment of supplies and donations after last year’s mortifying blast, and had the privilege of going back to our homeland and distributing those supplies to families impacted by the disaster.

 

This year, as the situation has only continued to worsen, I decided to donate my time and efforts in a different way. As a mental health professional, I realize that the psychological impact of the collective suffering is unimaginable.

 

This is why I decided to host a free, all women’s wellness and healing retreat in the mountains of Lebanon,

This retreat is for those who could use the support of a mental health professional while experiencing the magic of our land that many do not get to take leisure in due to the extremely high levels of stress.

 

The retreat will take place on July 29th, and I leave to Lebanon next week.

 

I will be asking locals to offer their talent workshops on this retreat, join with their moms, teach each other new crafts, engage in mindful movement such as yoga and dance flows, as well as other therapeutic techniques I’ve been practicing to help people heal their traumas.

 

Many people have already signed up because of how needed this offering is.

 

With your help, I will be able to provide a healing and unforgettable experience for people who have been yearning for a breath of fresh air under unbearable circumstances.

 

Your donations will help me cover supplies, accommodations, logistical arrangements such as transportation, as well as helping me in sustainably creating more of this retreat experience in the future.

I am beyond excited to share a healing space with the women of my beloved homeland.

 

Please feel free to reach out with any questions or collaborative opportunities if you’d like to help out.

 

Much love,

Sarah
