Coming Home to Myself: My Journey to Women's renewal

I've just landed back from one of the most soul-stirring weeks of my year so far, and I'm still glowing from it. ✨

I travelled to Española, New Mexico, to attend the Women's Renewal experience — a Kundalini retreat held on the sacred land of 3HO, the spiritual home of Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan. And I have to be honest with you all: I didn't just go to teach or to learn technique. I went for me. For my own healing. For my own journey. 🙏

Why I Went

Running Meraki Awakening means I spend so much of my time holding space for others — in yoga classes, in massage sessions, in Reiki, in ceremony. And I love that role with my whole heart. But even the healer needs to be held sometimes. I felt the call to step fully into the role of student and woman in process, surrounded by other women doing the same deep work. Wow it was so special and I'm deeply grateful for the experience.

What Women's Renewal Gave Me

Waking each morning to sadhana under that huge New Mexico sky, chanting mantras that have been sung on that land for decades, moving through kriyas designed specifically to work with the feminine body and nervous system — it cracked something open in me. 💫

The moment I opened completely happened in morning sadhana. I dropped into deep shuniya — a sacred, neutral emptiness beyond thought — and I have honestly never felt so still, so empty, so at peace in my entire life. Time dissolved. There was no Geet Navjot the teacher, no Tracy the healer, no to-do list, no roles to hold. Just pure stillness. If you've never touched shuniya in your own practice, I can't fully put it into words — but I can tell you it's the kind of peace that stays with you long after you roll up your mat. 🤍

There's something different about doing this work in community with other women who are also unraveling, releasing, and renewing. No performance. No holding it together. Just truth, breath, and sisterhood. 🕊️

Bringing It Home to You

I don't come back from experiences like this and keep them to myself — everything I receive, I bring back into my classes, my ceremonies, and my own presence as a teacher. So if you've been to one of my classes recently, or you join me soon, know that you're getting the benefit of this renewal too. 🌿

If this speaks to something in you — that quiet call to prioritise your own healing, not just everyone else's — I'd love to hold space for you. Whether that's on the mat at RISE Fitness Malvern, in a 1:1 session, or on retreat with me in Dalyan, Turkey this October, the invitation is always open. 💛

With so much love and renewal,

Geet Navjot/ Tracy
