Transformative healing experiences for women made possible

OUR VISION

A vital part of our vision is to create projects and collaborate with other organizations to shape experiences where women feel heard, embraced, and supported— inspiring healing in both the individual and the collective.

Established in 2023 and envisioned as a migratory space, which means that it’s more than just a physical space, The Center is an inner sanctuary where women retreat and dive deep within themselves. 

THE CENTER - RETREATS

Uplifting Single Mothers Retreat

Created and led by Ana Pincus and Fiona Arrigo, founder of the acclaimed Arrigo Programme. The Single Mothers Retreat took place in 2023 in Somerset, UK. This retreat offered a four-night, five-day opportunity for underserved single mothers to prioritize their well-being, providing a space for nurturing, healing, and support.

REWIRE Retreat 

The REWIRE™ Retreat in 2023 was a three-day immersion for teenage girls. The experience provided participants with a safe space to learn how to regulate their emotions, reduce anxiety, and develop a strong sense of self in our highly stressed and increasingly digital world. The course was led by transformation specialist Natasha K. Richardson, who works with leaders and changemakers at companies including Google, Apple and KPMG.

TESTIMONIALS

  • We laughed, cried and raged together. We bonded over our shared journey as single mothers, offering each other unwavering support and understanding and listened closely to the elements of our very different stories. Even after the retreat ended, our connection remains strong, and we continue to uplift and empower each other through life’s ups and downs

  • Each and every moment was crafted to perfection, I felt so held, so loved, so seen. I was able to open up and cry from the very depths of my heart knowing I was completely safe to do so, with no judgement - just compassion and love. I want to thank The Akhilanda Foundation for this most wonderful experience in my life, it came at just the right time for me and so many wonderful things have happened to me since I left. I am eternally grateful and this experience will always hold a very special place in my heart.

  • Very quickly I became aware of the gift that the retreat had given me and the other women present there. The gift of returning into my body and my heart and soul returning back to me. There is nothing more important than this. Being part of and sitting in a community to bring home that sense that we all belong, and to really feel it. To be at home with each other and to make a home in ourselves.
