The Big Reconnect Sleepover
Sit comfortably in an upright position
Allow your seat to take your weight and hold you
Allow yourself to relax
Allow the tension to be released from your body
Bring your focus to your breathing
Breathe in, breathe out
By attending this retreat, I am writing my destiny
For surely, we could all leave a legacy
At the reconnect, it is time to reflect
Time to give ourselves more respect
Breathe in, breathe out
At the riad, a choice of a tranquil, African and white room,
I was destined for the red room
In it I found a small mouse, timid and frail,
“You are intruding and must leave!” I said, holding it by its tail
Breathe in, breathe out
Mnsemen, bahrir and eggs for brunch
Mechoui and tanjia for lunch
Rashid, our guide, fluent in English, German and the Berber dialect
Explains about the ben Yousef madrassa, which has stunning architecture
Breathe in, breathe out
It’s all about making the right choice
Let the world hear your voice
Breathe in, breathe out
I love the hot, fulfilling harira
And still have to visit the palace Bahia
“I need to buy zelij and more honey”
“Can we go to Hotel Ali to change money?”
Breathe in, breathe out
Breathe in, breathe out
I learnt to cook the tagine at Amal
And I chose not to get on the Jamal
We stand together as one team
Ready to follow our dream
We leave with new friendship and a strong sisterhood
Learning to say could instead of should
Breathe in, breathe out
My destiny is calling
I should stop stalling
Breathe in, breathe out
Slowly become aware of your surroundings
And when you are ready open your eyes
