Upcoming Events, Retreats, & Workshops
All 2026, I'm coming to you!
Across cities and communities, I'lI be gathering with you — to practice, share readings, explore guided lovingkindness meditation, open conversation, and the kind of connection we all need more of.
You don't have to have it together to show up.

In-Person: Learning to Be With What Is – A Half-day Yoga Retreat
with Oneika Mays​

Saturday, August 15th, 2026 | 10:00am – 1:00pm ET
Location: New York Insight at 115 West 29th Street, 12th Floor
​​
This half-day retreat is an invitation to find steady ground; by learning to be with what is without being undone by it. Through gentle asana, therapeutic yoga, and yoga nidra, we’ll explore upekkha (equanimity) as something alive in the body.
Kripalu: The Heart of Forgiveness
In-Person: A Half-day Retreat
with Jacoby Ballard & Oneika Mays
​​
September 4-7, 2026
​​​
What it does offer is a way to release the grip of suffering—with honesty, with friendliness, with an open heart—so that you are no longer defined by what was done to you, or what you have done.
​
That freedom is what this retreat is about.
