About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

When did you stop singing, dancing, playing & using your imagination?

Drop all that you have learned from others & return to innocence. Let yourself play beyond disciplined limitation..

Playful Spirit is the exploration of soul awakening and nature's alchemy. Join us for an intimate exploration of self through ceremony and conscious connection. Come with an open mind and heart to reveal what's next.

Soak in the magic of Atitlan's charged volcanoes + waters.

Center with nourishing meals, movement, stillness, community cirlces, temescal and sound journeys.

Explore Guatemala's vibrant culture + connect with the indigenous communities who call this land home.

Lake Atitlan is a powerful mirror for spiritual transformation. Surrounded by 3 volcanoes, lush jungle covered mountains, and unique traditional mayan villages. Known as one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, it is an energy vortex with potent ley lines that cross beneath the earth.

A unique opportunity to go deeper into your personal experience of transformation, creativity, and nourishment. Join us at one of our favorite locations in the world, Lake Atitlan, for a week of restoration, exploration and play. Commune with nature, connect with community, and align with Self. Beyond connecting inward, many of our retreats leave people with a lasting impression of genuine connections with likeminded + hearted beautiful soul family and Great Spirit.

Rise each morning + enjoy a dynamic morning practice of guided movement, breathwork, and meditation followed by a heart opening cacao circle with live music. Jump into the lake any time you like, many of us like to dive in right before and/or after morning practice. Start the day charged up with the energy of Atitlan's Earth and Water and Mama Cacao. Each day there are varying offerings of workshops, ceremonies, and opportunity to explore the vibrant lake culture and spaces as well as time to relax and flow freely. Wind down each night with a restorative sound journey meditation.
