Apply NowWhat women who have gone through Alabastron programs have to say
We all go through life waiting for bliss to happen to us. We tick these boxes hoping at the end of it all we will feel fulfilled, satisfied and contented. Yet, if we were to be brutally honest with ourselves; this projection of wanting to achieve such key needs that come from within with anything without is a myth! This is so as needs that arise internally can never be matched to things attained externally. A house, a spouse, a child cannot complete, define or even satisfy us. It is the continuous endeavor to keep on
Has life ever made sense for so long yet in one instance everything you thought you knew works just doesn't feel clear anymore? Have you gone through a moment in life that led you to question the lenses through which you viewed life from? Sometimes life has lessons only best learned when experienced, mine led me to a journey of BECOMING a woman I love.

We’ve all experienced pain at different levels in life. However, pain can make us bitter or better. We get to choose whether or not we will grow through our pain. The answers we long to hear and understand is how do we turn our pain into lessons of growth? What do we need to unlock to help us embrace our pain, instead of being shameful? Ho do we embrace a learner’s mindset; carefully analyze our pain to acknowledge lessons that can make us become better? Alabastron’s Renewing Self program was the key that unlocked Bevaline…

This is achieved through the available online channels that we’ve engaged with even while maintaining the excellence, dedication and commitment we offered to our clients during the physical classes.
Most of this year’s seasons of our flagship program, Renewing, has happened online. Whilst, it is practical to compare the two experiences and assume that the experience is of a higher value in the physical sessions, our commitment to women & girls weighs heavily when it…
Alabastron’s commitment to women is that they are able to find answers from within that are driven from an authentic, self-conscious and self-aware perspective. The testimonies of these women differ from each experience because every woman’s journey is personal and unique. Lydia, shares her experience of the Renewing Self Journey and this is what she shared.

The immediate effects of the impact of COVID 19 pandemic have been felt first hand by women and girls. A UN policy brief on the impact of Covid 19 on women, indicates that there has been an increase gender-based violence cases and teenage pregnancies.
According to the government statics, the ratio of men dying from the virus is higher than women. This would result in economic and social insecurity for women and children. Reduced or loss of income as a result of retrenchments and closure of businesses, has only exacerbated the…
All my life I didn’t want to accept that indeed I needed help and that It’s okay to ask for help; but in August 2019, my life hit rock bottom. I was a post 2months suicide survivor (had attempted suicide in June), was clinically depressed, dependent on sleeping pills and anti-depressants and to make matters worse my close to 5years relationship ended.
I was mentally, physically and emotionally drained and broken, I constantly had mental breakdowns and my anxiety was at its peak. My relationship with my dad was unhealthy and it was affecting all…
Have you found yourself with the same results over and over again? Deep down you know something isn't right yet you cannot put a finger on it? Are you tired of being in the patterns? Alabastron has helped me understand myself and progressively work on my issues.
A few years back, I was in a relationship which deep inside me even before entering the relationship and during it, I knew I should not have been in there. After the relationship ended, I told myself that I will not get into another relationship until I…
I have always imagined myself as weird or dorky or the piece that never fits into the puzzle properly. I have succumbed to societal pressure in an effort to fit in into what is deemed perfect or normal. But a number of times I have failed miserably. I did exactly every opposite thing expected of me by society. joining
I didn't pass my exams; ever despite having always been a good performer, I didn't join university My family always thought me as a bright kid but I failed my exams since I never brought the…
I learnt about Alabastron from a stranger. I met this lady outside a psychiatrist’s office, and we began taking about life and she suggested the program to me. She spoke so passionately about the program and how it saved her and restored her marriage. A few weeks later a coworker sent me a poster on WhatsApp. I purposed to attend the first class; the interesting part is it coincided with my mom’s nine year anniversary since her death.
Before joining Alabastron, I was nervous. I was afraid of exposing my…
