Because your nervous system deserves freedom too.
Through guided intention setting, meditation, therapeutic sound frequencies, and somatic tremoring, we’ll support the body in releasing stored stress, cortisol buildup, adrenaline overload, and pinned-up tension.
This is not a performance.
This is not another networking event.
This is a space to exhale.

Come exactly as you are.
This retreat is for you if:
- You’re tired of always being “the strong one”
- You’ve been carrying stress in your body and can physically feel it
- You want to celebrate Juneteenth in a way that feels restorative and meaningful
- You’ve been stuck in survival mode and your body is asking for a reset

If something in you said
‘I need that...'
Also for you…
You don’t have to come alone.
This space is also for:
- Best Friends
- Sisters
- Mother & Daughter
- Cousins
- Work besties (yes, your work-boo too)
Come together and experience something different—without the pressure to talk, entertain, or perform.
Sometimes the most meaningful connection…
happens without words.
Why tremoring and sound work?
Your nervous system cannot fully reset while constantly taking in information.
Movement and frequency sounds remove the input.
And when the constant input stops… your system can:
- Slow down
- Reorganize
- Release tension
- Restore energy
Shift your body out of chronic stress.
It’s active recovery.

Alexis began her own tremoring journey four years ago during the pandemic while struggling with chronic sciatica. After incorporating tremoring and the MELT Method into her wellness practice, her sciatica symptoms resolved—and have not returned since. Since then, she has become passionate about helping others reconnect with their bodies and jokingly admits she tries to get almost everyone she meets “on the floor” to tremor.
Alexis is especially passionate about creating spaces where Black women and helping professionals can soften, reconnect with themselves, and experience wellness beyond productivity culture. Her approach is grounded, accessible, and deeply rooted in the belief that healing is not just mental—it lives in the body, too.
When she’s not facilitating wellness experiences, you can find Alexis dancing, sipping green smoothies, and treating hydration like it's a hobby.
Your Sound Bath Facilitator:
SHAYLA HERNDON-EDMUNDS
Shayla Herndon-Edmunds is the founder of Oh My Goodness Wellness Bar, a wellness boutique rooted in natural healing, nervous system restoration, and whole-body care.
What began in 2015 as Shayla creating homemade remedies to support her son’s eczema and her family’s wellness quickly evolved into a growing community-centered wellness brand. After realizing many families were searching for healthier, more intentional ways to care for themselves, she launched OMG as an online boutique featuring handcrafted wellness products including body butters, soaps, candles, lotions, and more. Her signature “Mommy’s Belly Butter” was even endorsed by actress Keshia Knight Pulliam during her pregnancy journey.
Shayla’s work is grounded in the belief that healing should feel accessible, nurturing, and deeply connected to community. Through sound frequency and intentional wellness experiences, she creates spaces that support calmness, release, and nervous system restoration.
THIS RETREAT IS PERFECT FOR:
Black women, helpers, caregivers, truth tellers, community builders, and high-capacity humans who feel the weight of constantly holding everything together.
It’s for those navigating the emotional exhaustion of world events, nonstop notifications, overstimulation, decision fatigue, and the invisible labor of caring for others while rarely receiving care themselves.
This experience is for women doing meaningful work in the world—but whose nervous systems rarely get a true moment of quiet.
If you’re curious about sound baths, tremoring, or somatic healing but feel intimidated or unsure where to begin, this is a supportive and accessible introduction.
And if you already have a wellness, meditation, or body-based practice, this gathering offers an opportunity to deepen your relationship with rest, release, and community care.
