ACTIVITIES IN THE RETREAT
Temazcal
Feel the burn and renew your mind, body and soul.
A Temazcal is a type of low heat sweat lodge, which originated with prehispanic indigenous people.
It was used as part of a curative ceremony to purify the body. Today this ritual continues to be used for spiritual healing and health enrichment reasons.
Yoga
Yoga is a systematic practice of physical exercise, breath control, relaxation, diet control, positive thinking, and meditation to develop harmony in the body, mind, and environment.
Sea and Beach Walks
We are all connected to the ocean, as water flows in our bodies. Connecting with the ocean brings us joy and calmness, and truly soothes the soul. We will spend an afternoon in the pacific ocean, connecting with the sea.
Sunset Ecstatic Dance
Ecstatic dance is a form of meditation that supports healing and letting go stress and other negative emotions. Mind, body and spirit benefit from this practice.
Sunrise (AMA-NACER)
To love to be born, the sunrise every morning charges us with light, energy, fuel to go through the day. It reminds us that every day is a new beginning with energy around us to connect with our purpose. We will spend a slow morning connecting with the sun as it arises from the ocean in front of us.
Cacao Ceremony
Connecting and drinking cacao at its purest form allows you to cultivate awareness on an emotional and spiritual level, releasing what no longer serves you, processing the energy that may be stuck, leading to a deep transformation, or guiding you in the direction you need to take—using this medicinal plant with respect with the intention of developing or deepening self-love, compassion, kindness, patience, and understanding.
Meditation and breathing
Breathwork is a combination of ancient and contemporary techniques for channeling and directing your energy by consciously controlling your breath. Practiced either seated or reclined, the classes involve slowing the breath down, speeding it up, retaining the breath for given durations, and manipulating the nostrils to direct the flow of energy through different nadis (energy channels).
Sound healing
Sound healing is an ancient meditative practice that uses different musical implements to create healing vibrations around the body in a meditative state. We use Quartz crystal bowls and Gongs tuned at strategic frequencies for healing different parts of the body and mind.
