Immersed in Divine Love:
Day Women’s Retreat
Event Overview
Saturday, May 23, 2026, 1 pm - 5pm
Detroit Area (Location emailed to participants)
Immersed in Divine Love is a sacred, one-day retreat designed to nurture the heart, restore the body, and gently reconnect you with the presence of Divine love. It is inspired by Dr. Tasleem’s signature poem, Divine Love, that captivates the hearts of 1,000’s of women worldwide over the years.
Set in an intentional space in the Detroit area, this gathering offers a pause from the pace of everyday life—a chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and return to yourself in a more present, grounded way.
Throughout our time together, you’ll be guided through a flow of practices rooted in remembrance, reflection, and holistic care—woven together in a way that feels gentle, supportive, and deeply nourishing.
What You’ll Experience
Throughout the day, you’ll be guided through:
Sound bowl healing
Dhikr (remembrance of Allah)
Somatic yoga movement (beginner-friendly)
Breathwork for nervous system regulation
Poetry reflection + guided journaling
Muraqabah moments of self-awareness
You’ll also be provided with a light, nourishing brunch and a curated gift bag to take home.
Nourishment Through Intention
You’ll be provided with a light, nourishing brunch, along with space to slow down and receive. Elements of prophetic foods—such as dates, honey, and herbal support—are thoughtfully woven into the experience as a reminder of simple, grounded care for the body.
Herbal Wisdom & Gentle Care
You’ll be introduced to simple, supportive herbal practices that can help with relaxation, emotional balance, and restoration—offering small ways to continue caring for yourself beyond this day.
Dhikr & Stillness: Returning to the Heart
Through guided dhikr and moments of quiet reflection, you’ll be invited to soften inward, settle the mind, and reconnect with Allah in a way that feels personal and unforced.
The Power of Breath & Sound
With breathwork and sound bath therapy, we’ll gently support the nervous system—releasing tension, calming the body, and creating space for ease and presence.
Somatic Movement
Through slow, beginner-friendly movement, you’ll be guided to reconnect with your body in a way that feels safe, intuitive, and grounding.
Poetic Reflection & Journaling
Through guided prompts and quiet writing time, you’ll have space to reflect, process, and express what’s been resting on your heart—without pressure or expectation.

Moments to Simply Be
Not every moment is structured. There will be space to sit, rest, connect, or just breathe—allowing the day to unfold in a way that feels natural.
A Shared Space
This retreat is more than a schedule—it’s a space to be held.
Within a small and intentional group, you’ll be surrounded by women who are also seeking softness, presence, and renewal. There is no expectation to share—only an invitation to come as you are.
Meet Your Host
Immersed in Divine Love is guided by Dr. Tasleem Jamila Firdausee—an award-winning poet, interdisciplinary scholar, and holistic wellness practitioner whose work bridges spirituality, education, art, and healing. With a PhD grounding her research in areas such as Black religion, Sufism, and holistic approaches to wellness, she brings both academic depth and lived experience into every space she creates. As the founder of My Soul Speaks Institute, she has led courses, retreats, and workshops across the U.S. and internationally, weaving together scholarship, storytelling, dhikr, sound, and embodied practices to create learning experiences that are both intellectually rich and deeply felt.
Her work is also deeply personal. Raised on the Southside of Chicago in a close-knit family rooted in Southern tradition, creativity, and a strong relationship with God, she grew up surrounded by storytelling, movement, and natural healing. With herbal books in the home and a garden in the backyard, she was introduced early to the connection between faith, wellness, and care. After navigating her own health journey—and witnessing similar challenges within her family—her path expanded into supporting other women through coaching, retreats, and sacred spaces like this one. Immersed in Divine Love is an extension of that journey: a place to slow down, learn, reflect, and return to yourself with greater awareness, softness, and connection.
