**Paphos Women’s Gathering Raises Awareness for Women’s Shelter**
Paphos, Cyprus – A significant event aimed at promoting women’s rights and support for those in need is set to take place in Paphos on June 21. The gathering, titled "Be in Your Nature," is organized by the Lea Women’s Center in collaboration with FemNEST, the Business Women’s Society, and Hamishi Nashi. Following the success of its inaugural event, the organizers are eager to bring together women from diverse backgrounds for a morning picnic that emphasizes connection, well-being, and community support.
Scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. at the Lea Women’s Center in Tala, this gathering coincides with several notable occasions, including the Summer Solstice, International Day of Yoga, and International Wellness Day. These events collectively symbolize light, balance, and renewal, making the timing particularly significant.
Participants are encouraged to bring a dish that reflects their cultural heritage, roots, or personal traditions. This communal sharing aims to foster a sense of authenticity and sisterhood among attendees. The morning will commence with a gentle meditation and light movement session, setting a tone of relaxation and mindfulness before transitioning into the picnic experience.
A key focus of this gathering is to support the Women’s Shelter operated by the Association for the Prevention and Handling of Violence in the Family (SPAVO). In line with the event's spirit of compassion and community, attendees are invited to contribute essential items such as dry food, hygiene products, or financial donations to assist women and children at risk.
"Be in Your Nature" is part of a broader initiative designed to encourage women to reconnect with their true selves, free from societal expectations and pressures. The event aims to celebrate the unique diversity and wisdom inherent in women's lives and bodies.
In addition to the picnic, the Lea Women’s Center will host a series of weekend activities, including a Song Prayer Circle and events in honor of International Yoga Day. These activities are intended to create a supportive environment for women to engage in meaningful connections and personal growth.
The gathering is free to attend, and organizers hope to see a strong turnout to support this important cause. For more information, interested participants can visit the Lea Women’s Center website.
As the event approaches, the emphasis on community, empowerment, and support for vulnerable women remains at the forefront of the organizers' mission, reflecting a commitment to fostering a nurturing environment for all women in the Paphos area.
