Silent Day of Retreat (June):

Remembrances: Meeting All Of You

We have been taught to manage what hurts. To get past it. To rise above it. Join us to finally turn around and meet what you have been outrunning.

We have been taught to manage what hurts.

To get past it. To rise above it. To find the silver lining quickly enough that nobody notices we were undone for a moment.

We perform a version of ourselves that has not been still long enough to feel what is underneath. We keep moving and producing—because stopping might mean encountering the very thing we have been outrunning.

But every wisdom tradition, every single one of them, points in a different direction:

The way through is through.

The way through grief is grief. The way through fear is fear. The way through the thing you have been outrunning is to finally turn around and meet it.

When we cannot be with what is here, we lose access to ourselves. We become a managed version of a life rather than a lived one. We hold it together so well that we forget what we are holding space for.

This June, we are not gathering to fix anything or arrive anywhere. We are gathering to finally sit down beside what is here—and let it be here. Not alone, but held. Not performing, but present.

Reviews From Our Clients

Michelle is an insightful and inspiring thought leader in the wellbeing space. Her ability to use her personal story and journey to create a safe, trusting environment is truly remarkable. She has a natural gift for building meaningful relationships and connecting with people on a deep level, which makes her approach to wellbeing so impactful.

Michelle’s knowledge of mindfulness and wellbeing is extensive, and she consistently applies it in ways that are both practical and transformative. Whether leading a session or offering guidance, she brings a unique blend of expertise and empathy that makes her an invaluable asset to any team or community focused on health and wellness.

I highly recommend Michelle to anyone seeking a compassionate, knowledgeable leader in the wellbeing field. Her passion and commitment shine through in everything she does.

Wanted to say thank you for inviting us into your cozy space — it was really conducive for our time of mindfulness. I loved the natural light, the wood finishing and adorable cushions! I appreciate you patiently taking us through various exercises and giving us intervals to journal; it helped crystallise the lessons gleaned. Overall, it was a great retreat, away from the noise and rush of the outside world. I left with warm memories and pearls of wisdom that I will return to in times of need.

I had a mindful meal the very next day; it was a wonderful experience just eating alone and savouring my food. I hope to do it more often (:

Take care and may you ease slowly and gently into the end of the year! God bless (:

In the program I learnt different techniques to integrate mindfulness into daily activities such as family time and work.

Also learn a lot from the group work and personal dialogue. Learnt a lot from all the attendees there. Thank you all and Michelle for the opportunity to challenge and face my struggles and opportunities. ❤️❤️

I used to hold the restrictive notion that mindfulness time belongs on the yoga mat in all quietness 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♀️🧘‍♀️. Not anymore tho.

I've attended Michelle's course on Mindfulness and it was insightful and empowering. In the midst of the daily grind of fast-paced work, it's easy to lose ourselves. Michelle's delivery helped me to realign and seek out the best version of myself. She was authentic and engaging with all participants and I can't recommend her enough! I hope to attend another course with you in the near future.

Thank you, Michelle!

I have the pleasure of attending & listening to Michelle on the topic "The Mindful Reset" at Cisco. It was a session where the audience were fully engaged whether in-room or on-line. Michelle made the session simple to understand and easy to relate for everyone.

I personally believe she was able to motivate all the 50 people to practice Mindfulness. Her credentials, experience as a practitioner, her story telling and the tools she gave to the audience was something that made this session highly impactful.

I would highly recommend Michelle to all my connections who want to start on the journey of Mindfulness or start this initiative for the benefit of the employees.

Who better to teach mindful self-compassion than a Teacher and Facilitator, like Michelle, who is compassion personified?

She had a calming presence, was attentive to classroom dynamics and wholeheartedly delivered her best. Met Michelle in-person, she is a joy to be with and her passion about mindfulness shines through!

Mei Ling, Audrey T.

It was a blessing to work with Michelle Mah on our most recent annual 'Special Treats Teacher's Day Fiesta' event! The electrifying and engaging vibes on stage throughout her talk on 'Burnout' totally drew the congregation to attention!

The topics covered, addressed the commonly occurring issues that caused an increased of stress levels, with many heads nodding away in agreement. Thereafter, her proven solutions to counter and solve, had everyone responding with concur-clapping!

I personally was impressed by the way she engaged the educators with humour, care and concern. Michelle Mah is not only an established speaker, but a woman, with a pure and sincere heart who seeks to help anyone in need, by contributing her gifts and skills with great passion and patience. She is a generous and altruistic community-builder whom I strongly recommend to your organisation's event!

What is "Remembrances: Meeting All Of You"?

This retreat is about turning toward what you have been carrying—with presence, with compassion, and with company.

Most of us cannot do this alone. The pull to leave is too strong. The mind offers a hundred exits, all of them reasonable. So we keep moving. We keep performing. A day of mindfulness is a group container for the work we are already doing—a few hours of being with yourself the way you have not been with yourself in a long time.

During our day of silence and practice, we will explore:

What Mindfulness Actually Asks of Us

Not transcendence, not detachment—but the willingness to sit down beside what is here and let it be here. Learn what it means to stop managing your experience and start meeting it.

The Difference Between Moving Through and Moving Past

How to honour what arises without rushing toward resolution. Discover how presence with pain is not the same as being consumed by it—and why the body already knows the difference.

The Practice of Turning Around

How to recognise when you are outrunning something, and learn to resource yourself enough to finally face it. This is not about re-traumatising yourself—it's about meeting what has been waiting with the safety it needs to be met.

Remembrance as Wholeness

Moving from performing the version of yourself that holds it together, to remembering all the parts of you that belong here. Discover that meeting all of you is not a collapse—it is the most honest form of coming home.

What you’ll experience

A safe container to finally be with yourself the way you have not been in a long time

A supportive community of practitioners who understand what it means to hold it together

Practices to resource your nervous system so you can meet what arises without being overwhelmed

Who this is for

  • You've been holding it together for so long you've forgotten what you're holding:

    You are the competent one. The steady one. The one others lean on. But somewhere beneath the management, something is waiting—and you sense it is time to let it have its moment.

  • You keep moving because stopping feels dangerous:

    The mind offers a hundred reasons to stay busy, and all of them sound reasonable. But you know, somewhere quiet in you, that the thing you are outrunning will outlast your stamina. You are ready to stop and turn around.

  • You want to grieve, or feel, or remember—but not alone:

    You know you cannot do this in isolation. The pull to leave is too strong without a container. You need a space where you can finally be still long enough to feel what is underneath—held by others who are doing the same.
