The Best Wellness Events in Los Angeles: Complete Guide for 2026

Hosted by Girl’s dinner at El Coyote

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re gathering at El Coyote Spanish Cafe for an intimate night of real conversations, good food, and the kind of connection you don’t get in your day-to-day routine. Because let’s be honest… we’re all carrying a lot. Careers, relationships, family, routines, expectations—and somehow still trying to show up as our best selves through it all. But when was the last time you actually felt rested? Not just sleep. Not zoning out on your phone. But real, intentional rest. This night is about slowing down, letting your guard down, and having honest conversations with women who get it. We’ll be diving into the 7 Types of Rest and talking about what it actually looks like to create space for ourselves—without guilt. All over chips, guac, and margaritas (or mocktails 😉). Theme: Carving Out the Calm: A Conversation on Radical Rest ⸻ ✨ Event Details Date: Wednesday, May 13th, 2026 Time: 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM Location: El Coyote Spanish Cafe Capacity: 15 women (Alaina + 14 guests) The Commitment: A $10 deposit is required to secure your seat. This will go directly toward shared appetizers for the table (chips, guac, salsa + more). You’ll have the option to order additional food or drinks. Attire: Red, yellow, or orange to match the El Coyote energy 🌶️ Dress it up or come exactly as you are—messy bun, low energy, “I almost didn’t come”… all welcome. ⸻ 💬 What to Expect 6:45–7:00 PM | The First Sip & Settle Arrive, get settled, grab a drink, and ease into the night with appetizers on the table. 7:15 PM | Welcome Circle A quick pulse check—introductions + one thing you’ve been juggling lately. 7:30 PM | Breaking Down the 7 Types of Rest Dinner is served and we move into a guided, supportive conversation around realistic ways to recharge while navigating real life. 9:00 PM | Closing Toast & Connections We’ll wrap with a final toast to our mental health + a group photo. ⸻ ✨ RSVP Details VIP members will receive early access to sign up first. If spots remain, this will open to the rest of the community on April 2nd. With only 15 spots, this will fill quickly—if you’ve been craving deeper conversations and a night that actually leaves you feeling better walking out than when you came in… this is for you.

We dance to a live DJ, give back to our Los Angeles neighbors, and leave feeling more alive than we arrived.  ## This is for the ones who get natural highs from movement and music. The ones who live for festival season but are exhausted by the recovery. **The Experience:**  DJ Naach (@naach\_music): **Prranit aka *ñaach* (He/Him)** is a DJ, event producer, & community organizer. Born in India, raised in Cameroon, and now based in Los Angeles, he brings a unique blend of Disco, 90s Rave, and Afro/Latin percussions to infuse more playfulness into the world.

A short meditation and body activation gets you out of your head and into your body, right where the magic happens.  10:45–11:30am: DJ Naach takes the decks. 45 minutes of pure, sober euphoria. Dance it out, shake it off, and remember what joy feels like in your body.  11:30–12:00pm: Cool down with a guided mobility flow.
