ProWoc Annual Wellness Event

A personal development event by Yema Ferreira and Zozo Mposula and is open for members and non-members. Please bring a yoga mat or blanket and dress for the weather and comfortable/sporty clothing.

At this year’s ProWoc annual wellness event we are going to slow down and go within to reconnect with ourselves. Yema will facilitate a process for us to return to ourselves through gentle reflective exercises. It can be hard to hold on to a sense of who we are and where we are going amidst the busyness of daily life and work. This is an opportunity to press the reset button as we go into a new season of productivity.

Zozo will be facilitating Sema Kemetic Yoga, an ancient Afrikan form of yoga based on the culture of ancient Egypt, then known as Kemet. The importance of Sema Kemetic yoga is that it has the power to cultivate the highest aspect of consciousness in Afrikan people and the world.

Sema Kemetic is a restorative form of yoga that has emphasis on breath and the flow of movement rather than the movement itself. It is about connecting the higher and lower self, cultivating our higher divine self. The focus is on breath as the life giving force , inhaling and exhaling through the nose. She will be facilitating a Sema Kemetic yoga where we get to connect with our divine, spiritual selves. We will finish off with a mediation.

Yema Ferreira is an Angolan psychotherapist, facilitator and writer. She runs a private practice from Copenhagen (Denmark) where she is currently based. Yema works with black women who want to explore and rediscover their identities and reconnect with their cultural and spiritual roots. Yema’s therapeutic approach is based on womanist values and a pan-African perspective. Central to her approach is also an African spiritual view of mental health and of her clients. In her practice she sees clients face-to-face in Copenhagen and online internationally. She also runs personal development workshops.
