Virtual Intro to the Resilience Toolkit for Muslimahs – English (Cohort 2)

May 7 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm PDT

Free
A 3-Part Virtual Trauma-Informed Workshop for Muslim Women.

Exclusively for Muslim women, this free, 3-part workshop teaches you how stress impacts your body, mental health, and relationships. Discover how certain Islamic practices help reduce stress, and how you can increase your resilience with additional tools and resources.

With The Resilience Toolkit, you’ll discover how to safely and quickly relax when triggered by stressful situations, making it easier to meet the day-to-day challenges of life.

Connect with other Muslimahs in your community in this safe, inclusive space and open yourself up to a greater sense of joy and wholeness.

The Resilience Toolkit is meant for all body types and is easily adaptable for any fitness level or mobility challenge. After completing The Resilience Toolkit, you can practice it on your own, whenever you need it!
