Women’s Pilgrimage to the Saharan Sea of Sand Dunes
A sacred journey from Marrakesh into the Atlas, the Draa Valley, the deep dunes of Erg Chigaga, and the timeless earthen beauty of Ait Ben Haddou.
8 days and 7 nights in Morocco, from Marrakesh through the Atlas Mountains to the Sahara, and returning through Ait Ben Haddou to Marrakesh.
March 24 to 31, 2027
Your spirit resides in a gown of Divine light - eternally present to guide and protect you.
This pilgrimage is a gentle summons away from the hum of family, work, and screens, and back into the inner sanctuary where you remember yourself as you truly are.
As our bodies move through the Sahara, our spirits soften into the ancient rhythms of the desert.
Along the way, embodied and contemplative practices will support an exploration of harmonizing the inner masculine and feminine, the seen and unseen worlds, and being “earth” in your own body as a station of holy self-care.
Alchemy of the Heart
A three-day Sufi weekend of presence, love, and the soul coming home — held in the Blue Ridge Mountains, in the Moroccan-rooted lineage Saloua was raised inside.
A Sufi Weekend Retreat for All Seekers
Held by Saloua Lahlou & Julia Sumaya Considine Pierce
July 31st - August 2nd, 2026 | Munaya | Marshall, NC
In the Sufi way, the Beloved is the Divine. And the ache you feel is not a flaw. It is the door.
This retreat is an entry into that lineage — and the work of
polishing the heart's mirror until it reflects the light it was always meant to hold.
It is not a meditation retreat. It is not a wellness vacation. It is a structured weekend immersion into the practices Sufi teachers have used for a thousand years to turn toward divine love: dhikr (sacred remembrance), breath, embodied movement, sound, poetry, the five daily prayers of the path, and the slow unveiling of what the heart already knows.
The framing is Sufi-rooted. The language is universal. Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, secular, seeking — every seeker who feels the pull is welcome.
