Maison Perséphone

Le Havre d’Hestia offers respite retreats blending art and nature for women who have endured various forms of violence, such as domestic abuse, sexual harassment, and migration-related traumas. The Maison Perséphone has provided restorative stays for over four years, fostering resilience and well-being through activities in permaculture, art, and somatic practices.

Supported by other organizations, they aim to host more than 70 women in weekly retreats, empowering them to reconnect with their strengths and reclaim their bodies and lives. Activities include gardening, art therapy, yoga, and individualized psychological support.
