Afternoon Tea Mini Retreats
A gentle afternoon of tea, storytelling, and self-love
You are warmly invited to a one-of-a-kind experience that celebrates the sacred bond between mothers and daughters (ages 9–14). Inspired by the heartwarming book The Light Inside Luna, this afternoon tea retreat offers a soul-nourishing journey of connection, creativity, and confidence — all wrapped in the elegance of a shared tea table.
“The light you carry is already inside you — let it shine.”
