I absolutely loved my yoga trip with Drishti Journeys - I had the joy of being in Sayulita Mexico with Anna Maria 9 a dear friend who led the yoga sessions). I dove into each planned activity and was rewarded by inner growth and how I view the world, I gained a new amazing community of people who are also doing the same work, and was blessed with this container created by the trip facilitators - Reinier in particular. Everything that was planned and executed for this retreat was intentional and heartfelt. I was able to experience the culture and local land and food, as well as have the space to explore what I needed to work on with my own yoga and mindfulness practice. I was impressed by the hardworking and caring people who led this trip and made it so rich and rewarding for the whole group. <3

The Sayulita retreat was an amazing experience that far exceeded my expectations. The workshop leaders, the cultural representatives introducing local culture, and meditation and yoga instuctors were all so inviting and fun. They introduced us to the culture of Mexico by allowing us to participate in an indigenious Cacao Ceremony. They created a safe space for self-discover that allowed me to push past my habitual boundaries, both emotionally and physically, through regular group work sessions, guided meditations, an ice bath workshop and daily liberating yoga sessions.
This may sound like a lot for a 5 days, and it was! But what made it so amazing was the group of people Reinier assembled to guide us on the journey and allowed the group of retreaters to bond into what felt like a supportive family. I am very thankful to all the fun, loving, accepting and caring people i got to know on this all-too-brief retreat.

When I booked this retreat, I had ideas of what it might have been like, yoga, group activities etc…
Wow! Was it way more than that. The entire week had a great flow to it and the people chosen to run this thing couldn’t have been better! Great job everyone!!
