Of Mothers and Memory: A Creekside Day Retreat

Of Mothers and Memory: A Creekside Day Retreat

Join us for Of Mothers and Memory, a heartful, intergenerational Mother’s Day retreat honoring the stories, care, and sacred ties of mothering—whether biological, chosen, or ancestral.

The retreat will be held at a private, creekside home in Columbia, TN. The exact location and arrival details will be shared with registered guests.

Together, we’ll move through yoga, memory work, embodied practice, storytelling, and a shared meal in honor of the mothers and mother-lines that shaped us. This is a retreat for those grieving, celebrating, remembering, and reclaiming.

All are welcome: mothers, daughters, aunties, chosen kin, solo attendees, and anyone on a healing journey.

Gather creekside for gentle movement, storytelling, self-care, and reflection. Rooted in Black feminist memory work and intergenerational healing, this offering welcomes all ages and family constellations.

This retreat is lovingly curated by Rev. Brittany T. Paschall (aka Rev. Beloved)—a memory worker, minister, and healing justice practitioner devoted to creating sacred spaces for rest, connection, and remembrance, especially for Black women and gender-expansive folks. Rev. Beloved’s work weaves together spirituality, somatics, and ancestral reverence to invite people into deeper wholeness and collective care. With a heart rooted in Black feminist wisdom and a calling to tend to intergenerational healing, she offers this retreat as a tender, embodied love letter to those who mother, remember, and belong.

Jazz Fields, a Nashville native, has been practicing yoga consistently since 2019 and began teaching at the end of 2022. For Jazz, yoga is community, embracing the different quirks that everyone brings to the table. It’s connection, leading with the breath first, and using it as tool, a friend, a teacher, your life force. She will push you to tap into your vulnerability and hold a grounding space for whatever that may bring up, with no judgement, just love. Expect to explore yoga beyond just the physical practice, making more space for inner awareness and self exploration.
