Props to Grenetta Mason and Donna Kelsick who organized a fantastic Urban Wellness Retreat that I participated in today.  The workshops and offerings touched on a wide range of interests – alternative medicine, diet and nutrition, financial planning, aromatherapy, spa treatments, as well as yoga and Reiki sessions.  They have a real sense that personal wholeness is about mind, body and spirit connection.   They day was full of conversation and learning alongside some wonderful souls who are looking for balance and wholeness in their busy lives.  And I love that the event was nestled right in the heart of Harlem (a beautifully rehabbed brownstone that is a B&B)  and drew from the resources that are within this community.   It was great to be part of an event that is intended to bring some measure of wholeness and connectedness to individuals, to our community and to our world.
