About Your Guide:
Echoes of Serenity is founded by Deepa Joshi, who resides in a creative headspace, dedicated to fostering healing and well-being through the power of sound. Her transformative journey into sound healing began in Arizona, where she experienced the profound impact of a sound bath, awakening her to the potential of sound vibrations for personal growth and healing. This pivotal moment was further enriched during her visit to Dharamshala, the abode of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, where she solidified her vision of creating a healing space centered around sound.
Deepa is a certified sound healer and sylvotherapist who infuses authenticity and dedication into every aspect of her work. Her passion for sound healing is matched by her commitment to building genuine connections and transformative experiences for those she serves. Through Echoes of Serenity, she conducts several theme-based sound bath sessions inspired by Japanese philosophies including Wabi Sabi, Ikigai, and Enso, while her specialty lies in Mantra meditation.
Deepa has pursued enhanced training programs in chakra alignment in Pokhara, Nepal, deepening her understanding of energy healing. In addition to sound healing, she conducts forest therapy sessions, bringing the restorative power of nature into her holistic healing practice. She is a voracious reader, constantly seeking knowledge and ideas to integrate into her sound bath classes. This commitment to continuous learning ensures that her sessions are enriched with enlightening concepts, offering participants a unique and profound journey into the world of sound healing. Deepa’s work reflects her love for meeting people, learning from their experiences, and building a strong, supportive community through the transformative practices of sound and nature-based healing. Please join to explore and experience the serenity and healing that comes from embracing the beauty of sound and connection.

After each talk, the audience will spend a few minutes writing encouraging feedback, reflections, or takeaways on paper for the speaker to take home. The goal is for every woman who shares to leave not only heard, but supported and uplifted.
Speaker spaces are sold out, but you are welcome to attend, listen, and network.
Whether you are refining your voice, sharing a personal story, or practicing a message you care about, HERstory is a space where every voice is valued.

2026-04-09 19:00 - 21:00 | CenterPeace, 33750 Freedom Road, Farmington, MI, 48335
This gathering is for those who feel the pull to slow down.
Not because something is wrong, but because something within is asking for rest, gentleness, and deeper listening.
Soul Embrace is a gentle, embodied experience designed to support deep rest, nervous system regulation, and reconnection with self. Through a blend of somatic awareness, guided meditation, sound, and mindful presence, you are invited to soften out of effort and return to what feels steady, grounded, and true within you.
This experience is not about fixing, striving, or performing.
It is an invitation to listen, to feel, and to allow the body and breath to lead the way home.
🌙 Within a calm, attuned, and supportive space, the evening flows through grounding practices that guide the nervous system into safety and ease. Gentle somatic awareness, guided meditation, and subtle sound elements work together to create an environment where your system can finally exhale.
Rather than pushing toward change, Soul Embrace creates space for what naturally wants to shift. This is a space where nothing is demanded of you. Everything you bring is welcome.
🌙 What to Expect
• Settle the nervous system and release accumulated stress
• Reconnect with the body through choice, curiosity, and presence
• Experience rest that is both restorative and integrating
• Leave feeling grounded, resourced, and gently renewed
This offering is especially supportive for those navigating stress, transition, emotional fatigue, or simply longing for a place to land.
🌙 Soul Embrace is co-facilitated by Rev. Loren Griffin and Suzzanne Suleiman, MS, LLP, whose combined work bridges somatic practice, nervous system awareness, and spiritual integration. Together, they create a compassionate, respectful container that honors the intelligence of the body, the wisdom of lived experience, and the human need for safety, rest, and connection.
Nothing is demanded of you here.
Everything you bring is welcome.
🌙 Doors open at 6:15 p.m. ET. Please arrive a bit early to get settled.
