Women’sHealing & Unity Day Retreat

Rosh Chodesh Nissan, March 19

Jerusalem

In Iyar, surrounded by the stillness of Yam HaMelach, we remember: “

“Ani Hashem Rofecha”

the source of healing flows within and around us:

In Iyar, as the land blooms and the sun warms the earth, life grows quietly strong.

We gather as women of Am Yisrael—sisters, mothers, daughters—to slow down, breathe, and listen.

Through Torah, song, movement, and mindful holistic jewish healing classes and workshops, we nourish our inner roots, finding strength, healing, and resilience.

Testimonials

I would like to let other women know that in 3 days, my life was completely transformed in such a short time ! We went so deep and expressed our Jewish holy soul through so many modalities. We were healed through air (Breathwork), through water (pool) and connected to our joy and creativity through yoga, dance, movement, meditation, song and creativity through art. A powerful healing and transformative combination!

- Sara
The wonderful family that ran Maim Haim made us feel cared for and at home with respect and genuine participation. The spiritual and Torah consciousness as well as the permission for what is and uplifting vibes location was stunning and uplifting; a kind-of circle consciousness where it felt like everyone had something to offer

- Rivka
So beautiful. So inspiring. So much love. So much appreciation and heart.

- Chaya
I am so grateful to Maim Haim in creating such a holy elevated experience for women. Hodu l'Shem to be surrounded by so much Malchut! There is so much to take in, and such a major shift for me from where I've been lately in my personal healing. I feel it's the beginning of something really big that is birthing…, a flowing wellspring of light & Torah for the world bzH 💥👑❤️

- Yocheved Godsi
The retreat was the most fascinating experience… I've never experienced anything like this before. Being able to be myself. Feeling like everyone understood me. Nobody judging me. All of the facilitators were amazing.

- Leah
The atmosphere feeling like family, love, acceptance, and understanding

- Chana
I loved the ease and gentle atmosphere. I loved the program and organisation of the curriculum. I loved the uniqueness and non judgmentalness of every woman and facilitator in the group. I loved each facilitator and their strengths and talents. I loved the space and view. I loved the food. I loved the space for everyone’s journey and the inspiration and encouragement to allow and elevate.

- Bracha
My experience of these retreats is that they are incredibly nourishing. The open-heartedness of women coming together in nature with meditation, Torah, and movement is quite phenomenal, magical, and consciousness expanding.

– Malka
Maim Haim retreats are truly rejuvenating, something about it, there's love in place of stress, unity and real support. Your team is dynamic, confident and gentle. You've really put something truly healing together for the body, mind, heart and soul. Something to come back to. I would love to come on your retreat. The last one raised me into a new path of healing. I've never been so affected by a retreat before. May you be blessed and blessed in your endeavors.
