حول ذا ريتريت

فترة عودة العافية بين الأجيال .

من المعروف أن الوصمات الثقافية وقلة التثقيف حول الدورة الشهرية يمكن أن تسبب الخوف والعار للفتيات اللائي يبدأن رحلة الحيض عند الحيض (حدوث الدورة الأولى). علاوة على ذلك ، هناك أسر مشتركة بين الأجيال حيث يتعامل الآباء والأقارب الأكبر سناً مع وصمة العار التي تسببها الدورة الشهرية ويعانون من ظروف الصحة الإنجابية في صمت.

 

تعتبر ملاذ العافية للحيض من Love Your Menses مكانًا آمنًا وشفائيًا للفتيات وأولياء أمورهن / أولياء أمورهن للمشاركة في حوار هادف حول الصحة الإنجابية ، ومشاركة قصص الدورة الشهرية ، والوصول إلى الموارد التي يحتاجون إليها للتمتع بالصحة والازدهار ، وبناء الأخوة.  

سيتضمن هذا المنتجع:

ورش عمل العافية
اليوغا / التأمل / التدليك

المتحدثون الضيوف
الغداء والعشاء
الأنشطة الترفيهية
& أكثر بكثير!

الهدوء في الهواء الطلق

"عندما تكون مستعدًا لالتقاط أنفاس من الهواء النقي ، ستجد العشب الأخضر المورق والزهور الغريبة والشرفة الأمامية المترامية الأطراف. استرخِ في المسبح أو استلقي تحت أشعة الشمس الدافئة في فناءنا المرصوف بالحصى. ليالي الصيف جميلة حول اليد حفرة النار فيلدستون ".

تصميم حديث مفتوح

"قلب المنزل هو المطبخ الريفي الكبير الذي يتميز به  خزانات تشطيب مزيف ، عدادات من الحجر الأملس ومخزن. استرخ حول الجزيرة التي يبلغ ارتفاعها ثمانية أقدام أو استمتع بتناول وجبة عائلية على طاولة المزرعة المصنوعة يدويًا. ما يجعل المنزل مميزًا للغاية هو مخطط الأرضية المفتوح على مصراعيه. يسمح هذا التصميم لمجموعة واحدة بمشاهدة التلفزيون ، ومجموعة واحدة لممارسة الألعاب ، والأخرى للاستمتاع بمحادثة طويلة على كأس من الموكستيل ، وكل ذلك على مسافة مشاهدة من بعضها البعض ولكن منفصلة بما يكفي لمواصلة الأنشطة الفردية ".

Tara Vargas-Wallace

Founder and Executive Director of Amplify POC Cape Cod

Social Justice Advocate and Racial Justice Activist

Amplify POC Cape Cod is a racial justice initiative to help amplify the businesses owned by people of colour (POC) on Cape Cod. Amplify was founded by Tara Vargas-Wallace, after the murder of George Floyd. As a Puerto Rican woman who is married to a Black man and mother to three promising Black children and as a social justice activist in the community, this issue was personal to her. In the spring and summer of 2020, community members began reaching out to Tara to ask how they could support the Black community. A list of Black-owned businesses did not exist for the Cape region, and therefore, Tara created one as part of Amplify's first endeavour.
