Thirteen leading experts in health, nutrition, fitness and dance delivered sessions at a women’s health and wellness retreat held recently in Aqaba, Ayla.
The four-day event aimed at fostering the physical and mental health and wellbeing of women and was organised by Family Flavours and Nakahat ‘Ailiyeh magazines and One with Nature Fitness Center.
“We are so proud to have brought our seventh women’s health and wellness retreat to the regional level with the participation of women from Lebanon, Palestine and Kuwait through the support of the Jordan Tourism Board,” says Hind-Lara Mango, Publisher and Managing Director of Family Flavours and Nakahat ‘Ailiyeh magazines.
The event, dubbed Connect With Your Mind, Body and Soul, brought together some 100 women who were encouraged to prioritise their mental and physical needs at Hyatt Regency Aqaba Ayla.
“Health and wellness are an ongoing journey of making connections with nature, each other and with ourselves,” adds Ghada Mu’asher, retreat co-ograniser and Founder of One With Nature Center.
Female community leaders, including Member of Parliament Tamam Riyati, attended sessions pertaining to financial wellness by SIGNATURE by Cairo Amman Bank, the Diamond Sponsor, and preventive nutrition by Juthour, organic food partner, at this retreat.
