The event, held at Luna Café, Tsukunda House, under the theme “Reconnect, Restore and Rejuvenate,” continued with presentations from wellness facilitator Awa Ikeseh and social entrepreneur Agatha Nnaji, both of whom framed wellness as extending beyond food and herbal therapy into emotional recovery, environmental health and human care systems.

Speaking during the session, Awa Ikeseh of Cultural Village and Facilitator of Bloom & Brew Women Healing Circle, argued that emotional distress, unresolved trauma and lifestyle pressure often affect women’s physical and psychological wellbeing, particularly in relation to reproductive health and emotional balance.

According to  Ikesh who is popularly known within her circle as  Village Head”, many women ignore bodily warning signs because of stress, caregiving burdens and digital distractions associated with modern living.

“When the womb is disconnected, so many things begin to go wrong in a woman’s life,” she said while discussing sleeplessness, emotional exhaustion, hormonal imbalance and reproductive health struggles.

Several of the wellness interpretations presented during her session reflected holistic and alternative healing perspectives rather than established medical consensus. However, Ikeseh repeatedly advised participants not to substitute wellness routines for professional healthcare.

“Do not neglect to seek professional medical attention,” she told participants. “The professionals are there who will tell you the exact thing happening in your body.”
