@paradiseparkatl The wellness world often forgets the women who hold the world. 💯🎉🌺
But tucked within 8 acres of lush Southern greenery, there’s a place doing it differently. At Paradise Park ATL, Black women aren’t afterthoughts — they’re the entire mission. ❤️💯🎉🌸

While many flock to luxury spas with marble and white robes, others are discovering something more rooted in heritage and legacy — healing in the soil, stillness by the river, herbs in hand. 🎉🎉 A Black-owned retreat space where the herbs are homegrown, the music is live, and the experience is unforgettable. 🥳

Where else can you stretch and release tension along the river, sip red raspberry tea harvested from the land, and get a farm-to-table vegan meal while sunflowers dance around you?

This weekend’s guest said it best:
“I didn’t know how badly I needed this until I felt my body relax for the first time in years.”
🌺🌺 Coming up soon:
🧘🏾‍♀️ A two-day virtual wellness retreat centered on reclaiming your radiance.
🌿 And a sacred one-day return to nature on August 24th.

This is more than self-care.
This is legacy care.

📅 When you’re ready to step into your longevity and legacy:

The U.S. military parade held on June 14, 2025, in Washington, D.C., has sparked widespread criticism for its poor execution and political undertones. Organized to mark the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army and coinciding with President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday, the event was meant to be a grand patriotic celebration. However, many veterans, spectators, and critics called it the sloppiest and least disciplined military parade they had ever seen. Reports described soldiers marching out of sync, lack of formal saluting, and an overall unprofessional appearance.

Adding to the controversy was the choice of music. The parade featured classic rock songs, including Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Fortunate Son,” a well-known anti-war anthem criticizing the privileged who escape military service. Many saw this as a deeply ironic and inappropriate choice for an event meant to honor military service—especially considering it was used to salute a president who himself avoided the draft. The move was widely mocked online and condemned by veterans and military commentators.

The event was also politically charged, with some viewing it as a personal tribute to Trump rather than a nonpartisan celebration of the military. Critics pointed out the cost of the parade—estimated between $25 to $45 million—as wasteful, especially in light of ongoing budget concerns facing the Department of Veterans Affairs. A majority of Americans, according to polls, felt the parade was an unnecessary use of taxpayer money.

The St. Joseph of Arimathea Pallbearer Ministry at the University of Detroit Jesuit High School and Academy is a student-led initiative that provides pallbearer services for homeless individuals, military veterans, and others who have no one to honor them at their funerals.

Established in 2015, the program aligns with the school's motto, "Men for Others," and is inspired by a similar ministry at St. Ignatius High School in Cleveland.

Students involved in the ministry undergo training to serve as pallbearers, learning about funeral procedures and the importance of dignity in death. Before each funeral, they gather to pray and, when possible, learn about the deceased. After the service, they reflect on their experience, often expressing a deepened sense of empathy and community responsibility.

The ministry not only honors those who might otherwise be forgotten but also profoundly impacts the students, fostering a commitment to service and compassion. Many alumni continue to engage in community service, inspired by their experiences in the program.
