We are so excited to be back in-person! If you want to be seen and heard, nourish your nervous system with exquisite movement and intentional integration time, and honor yourself and your loved ones through the beautiful Mexican traditions of Día de los Muertos, this customized retreat was designed specifically for you.

 On this journey you will . . . 

• Honor grief and celebrate joy in a safe, brave space. They coexist. You are allowed to hold both.

​​

• Learn how to witness and Be Witnessed through a group conversation honoring your grief, joy, and your loved ones who have passed. Deepen your relationship with yourself and others.

​

• A full Meditation in Motion experience: tend to your nervous system with effective mindfulness practices where we will progress from stillness and breathing to a journey of exquisite motion. Explore a deep connection with yourself and your loved ones through this experiential Día de Muertos ritual interacting with the altar. This day event will include integration downtime and food prepared in home by a private chef. Nourish your mind, body, and spirit.

​​

• Learn the history and how to create an altar for Día de Muertos. Make this an annual tradition in your life. (Take home instructions included!)

​​

• FOOD! 10,000 tacos! One of our favorite parts of traveling is eating delicious, healthy, and authentic food. We've designed this retreat to give you many choices! From cooking at home to visiting the finest restaurants in Ajijic, you'll have the opportunity to create your own food adventure.

​​

• Rejuvenate your body during our spa day at the local, natural hot springs located right by Lake Chapala - the largest natural lake in Mexico. Soak in private hot springs filled with beneficial ingredients like flowers, oatmeal, and minerals. Finish it all off with skin nourishing mud (and fun pictures!) 

​​

• Do less and allow for more! Plenty of time to choose what your mind and body need. Allow for more spaciousness. Less structure and more discovery. Choices in how you want to spend your time. Allow for spontaneity. Allow for listening to your body's wisdom. Allow for peace and quiet. Fun and play. Allow for your emotions to show up fully.

​

• Be surrounded by humans who lift you up, who see you, hear you, believe you, and stand with you in your journey.

​​

• 
Bonus! Immerse yourself in the rich traditions of Mexican culture in Ajijic. Be a part of the local Día de Muertos celebrations where you can feel the magic in the air.
  ​
  And much more!

   At your retreat. . .   

• You wake up to the peaceful sound of birds chirping and sunshine warming your skin.

• You're in a beautiful, private, safe home in a cozy bed.

• You wander to the gorgeous kitchen where a private chef hands you a fresh coffee or tea to your liking.

• You choose a location or activity to tend to your nervous system. You decide whether to curl up with a book or your inquiry journal, meditate, move your body, play a game, rest, dip in the heated pool or jacuzzi, or take a quick walk to all Ajijic has to offer.

• You feel a sense of flow to your day with no rush. You're enjoying the present moment.

• You venture into the rich Mexican culture with a community who honors your unique journey. You're awakened by the sights, smells, colors, and textures.

• You feel spaciousness to be however you need to be and feel whatever you need to feel. Grief and joy dance together and integrate.

• You eat food that not only nourishes your body but also your spirit. You take time to enjoy every bite and those around you.

• You go to sleep that night feeling whole, seen and heard, and held.

 OnixBloom, I still have questions . . . 

Q: Is it safe?

A: Yes! Teresa lives there with her 8 year old daughter and feels very safe in all settings. 911 works just like in the states, we're close to very good hospitals, and we'll be staying in a safe neighborhood in a gated home. 

Q: Are our accommodations private?

A: Yes! We're staying in a beautiful, large Airbnb with a private heated pool and jacuzzi. 

​

Q. You said all levels of movement. Do you really mean it?

A: Yes! Our movement classes will give you choices and progressions for wherever you are in that moment. It is YOUR practice, and you can always go to a grounded onix rest or do what feels amazing to your unique, glorious body. 

​

Q. What is transportation like?

A: We'll use private, trusted drivers. We purposefully are staying close to Ajijic so we can walk to almost everything.
