HELD™
Overview
HELD™
A Nervous System–Centered Healing Immersion for Black Women
HELD™ is a one-day, in-person healing immersion designed for Black women who are tired of pushing through life on adrenaline.
This is not a conference.
This is a pause.
HELD™ offers a grounded, body-centered experience rooted in nervous system regulation, gentle restoration, and collective care—without urgency, performance, or pressure.
Who HELD™ Is For
HELD™ is for Black women who:
- Feel chronically tired, overwhelmed, or “on edge”
- Carry emotional and physical stress in their bodies
- Are high-functioning but internally depleted
- Want rest that is intentional, not escapist
- Are ready to understand what their nervous system actually needs
No prior experience is required.
Rest is participation.
What to Expect
Throughout the day, you’ll experience:
- A slow, intentional opening ceremony
- A grounding keynote focused on nervous system regulation
- Choice-based breakout sessions (movement, stillness, reflection)
- Guided nervous system resets
- Quiet integration time (no pressure to socialize)
- Nourishing meals and gentle connection
- A closing ceremony that supports emotional completion
All sessions are optional, gentle, and trauma-aware.
What You’ll Leave With
By the end of HELD™, attendees leave with:
- A felt sense of safety and calm in the body
- Simple nervous system regulation tools for everyday life
- Language to understand what your body has been asking for
- Permission to rest without guilt
- A sense of belonging and being truly held
You won’t leave “fixed.”
You’ll leave resourced.
Why HELD™ Exists
Black women are often expected to be strong, capable, and resilient—without space to rest or recover.
HELD™ exists to interrupt that pattern.
This experience centers regulation over productivity, presence over performance, and sustainability over burnout.
What Comes Next (Optional, Not Required)
HELD™ is designed as the beginning—not the end.
After the event, attendees will be invited to:
- Join a continued HELD™ community space
- Access digital nervous system regulation tools
- Attend ongoing workshops and restoration days
- Explore deeper body-based and educational offerings
There is no pressure to continue.
Only an invitation.
