A three-day event by Houston event planner Helena Paschal will be held at the Hilton Post Oak with the goal of promoting connections, learning and laughter as a growth opportunity to reduce stress, according to a press release

The event will help kick-off Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October. 

"My goal is to give women peace of mind with action steps to achieve their goals," states event host, Helena Paschal said in a press release. "Women can expect to learn stress reducing meditation techniques, goal setting strategies and financial planning tools to take control of their time, thoughts and finances."

The event, called the "Pink Champagne Retreat" will empower women to overcome the challenges of an uncertain economy, raising a family, personal setbacks and mental health, according to the press release. 

The idea, according to the press release, is to give women a break from negative mindsets, self-sabotaging behaviors and unproductive habits that are holding them back from a fulfilling life. 

Activities include a Paint and Sip Networking Party and an All-Black Dinner Party. Helena Paschal will release her new book, "Pink Champagne: Release the Pain and Pressure to Change Your Life," at the Sunday Pink Champagne Brunch with live music, inspirational speakers and prizes, according to the press release. 

Additionally, guests can anticipate a sacred experience with advanced yoga teacher and reiki practitioner, Ronda Thornton, founder of True North Wellness (TNTW) from Atlanta, Georgia, according to the press release.

Development training sessions will be done by Houston-based business owners, according to the press release. 

Session topics include stress reduction, bouncing back from setbacks, making your business ideas come to reality and financial planning. 

The event organizers said a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Susan G. Komen Houston to increase awareness about the importance of early breast cancer detection, according to the press release.
