Day 1

Embracing Tranquility — The Awakening Journey Begins in Tulum

Welcome to the opening chapter of your transformational journey, a radiant escape into health, healing, and growth, set in the vibrant Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico. Upon arriving at the airport, a comfortable transfer awaits to whisk you away to Dos Ceibas, a beautiful eco-conscious beachfront retreat where whispers of the Mayan culture meld beautifully with the tranquil design of your surroundings. This authentic destination calls out to your spirit, preparing you for the metamorphosis that lies ahead.

After checking into your room, the magnetic draw of the Caribbean Sea invites you to slow down and breathe, to settle into the profound serenity of your new surroundings. During introductions, connect with your fellow retreat companions — each one of us is a unique and essential part of this collective journey. As evening approaches, a gentle yoga asana practice session, led by the experienced Ra, will help to ground you in this authentic experience. Then, we'll come together as a new-found community for a delightful dinner. Savor delicious, healthful cuisine in good company and celebrate the beginnings of a retreat designed to foster energy, healing, and growth. We are so glad to have you here.

Day 2

Unveiling the Transformative Power of Dinacharya & Abhyanga

As dawn breaks, the power of the sun invigorates the energy of the retreat and heralds the opportunity for further growth and healing. Your day begins with morning asana practice, the melody of the waves lapping on the shore offering a symphony of gentle static in the background. Your body, mind, and spirit align, moving in concert under the guidance of Ra. Post practice, you'll find yourself deeply attuned to the energy of life as you nourish your body with a breakfast of fresh, locally sourced ingredients that embody the essence of vibrant health and empowerment.

After breakfast, you're introduced to the transformative power of dinacharya, the ayurvedic concept of daily routine. This powerful talk brings deeper insight and connection to your practice. You will also be guided through an introduction to abhyanga, an ayurvedic self-massage practice. Learn of this ancient technique, steeped in the wisdom of healing and wellbeing.

Then, as the day eases into a restful pause, you are treated to a refreshing lunch that further fuels your journey of transformation. The afternoon unfurls as a canvas of free time, inviting you to explore the sprawling beauty of Tulum at leisure. Come evening, you are guided into a restorative session of breathwork and meditation to help you release hidden tension and channel your focus inward. The day culminates with a delicious dinner, as nourishing to the body as the day's experiences have been to your soul, encapsulating the radiant essence of your journey in Tulum.

Day 3

Nurture and Grow: The Foundation of Yamas and Niyamas

As the gentle golden light of the sun bathes everything in a soft glow, our morning asana practice sets the tone for a day filled with profound discovery and healing. Let your body, mind, and spirit harmonize as you experience the empowering connection fostered by movement. Invigorated and ready to take on the day, enjoy a nourishing breakfast before it's time to engage in a thought-provoking talk on yamas and niyamas, the ethical guidelines of yoga philosophy. Imbued with wisdom, these discussions spark introspection, enhancing the awareness of your journey towards your internal and external authenticity.

After lunch, you'll have an afternoon ripe with opportunity for exploration or rest during your free time. Before dinner, you are gently guided into a sacred space for today's breathwork and meditation session. Then, as we close the day with a community meal, we celebrate a day of collective growth and learning.

Day 4

Let Your Spirit Take Flight: Freedom to Explore

Morning ushers in a revitalizing asana practice, with the soothing rhythm of the ocean waves grounding your movements. As the energy within you begins to stir and expand, you connect deeper with your inner self. Your practice ends with a sense of completion and readiness to embrace the day, a day that begins with a nourishing breakfast.

The remainder of the day is free for you to explore and embrace your adventurous self, until we reconvene for a session of evening yoga nidra meditation to calm our minds and release tension from our bodies.

Day 5

Awakening the Inner Power: Harnessing the Energy of Mudras and Mantras

Your morning commences with our usual asana practice, allowing the union of breath, body, and spirit to align, opening pathways for deeper understanding of our physical self.

Delve into a session of mudras and mantras, complete with engaging practice. As you explore these ancient tools, each gesture and chant resonates with your energy, empowering your spirit and healing your soul. The wisdom imbued in these practices help you to anchor further in your authenticity and align more deeply with your true self. After this illuminating morning, we'll break for lunch.

Following lunch and a free afternoon, the day gradually gives way to an evening where breathwork and meditation serves as the day's spiritual anchor. The flow of breath aligns with the rhythm of your spirit, creating a deep healing symphony that amplifies renewed purpose. As twilight paints the sky, we'll come together for our final dinner together. Contemplate the growth and evolution that you have experienced throughout your time in Tulum as you share your stories and experiences with one another.

Day 6

Closing Ceremony and Reflections

You greet the morning with your final asana practice, each pose a farewell and a thank you — to the land, to the community, to the transformational journey you've shared. The rhythm of your breath aligns with the ambient sounds of nature one last time, serving as a gentle reminder of the growth and alignment you've nurtured here in Tulum. Following this grounding session, a soul-nourishing breakfast awaits. The morning then seamlessly transitions into a closing ceremony complemented by a soothing sound bath. Let the harmonizing vibrations penetrate deep into your being, realigning your energy and reinforcing the deep connections formed, experiences shared, and lessons learned.

After a break for lunch, you’ll have the remainder of the day to do as you please. Rest, relax, explore, and integrate — follow your heart and intuition. As the sun sets, we’ll come together for a farewell dinner, a time and space we can start saying our goodbyes and enjoy our final hours together here in paradise.

Day 7

One Last Breakfast and Final Goodbyes

After one final breakfast, it’s time to check out and say goodbye to our retreat and Tulum. Though this marks the end of your stay in Mexico, it's your brand new beginning of a journey forward, armed with new insights, practices, and friendships. Carry this experience with you, always.
