This all-inclusive experience invites you to explore the vibrant Maya cultures, traditions, and landscapes of this sacred region while reflecting on the ripples we can create within ourselves and in the world.

Each day offers a balance of movement, reflection, cultural exploration, and time in nature—allowing you to feel the subtle ripples of transformation that will extend long after your return home.

During our retreat, we will honor Maya Cosmology through a traditional Maya Fire Ceremony guided by Tata Walter and learn about cacao as an ancient healing medicine through a Cacao Ceremony. We will honor Maya art and craft through taking a workshop with Kemó Women's Cooperative to learn the traditional Maya weaving and natural dying. We will honor Nature and Lake through a guided hike on the Santiago volcano to see the small Quetzal bird in the wild, the symbol of Guatemala, as well as visiting an organic farming project, Caoba Farms, in Antigua. Finally, we will honor the Maya people by visiting and build relationships with two long standing local NGOs: Konojel and Escuela Caracol. For decades we’ve been collaborating with these projects and are thrilled to be able to share with you all they are doing to create lasting impact.

This retreat provides the perfect balance between rest and relaxation in one of the world's most beautiful settings, engaging in cultural knowledge and making an impact in the community. All your travel, lodging, food and activities are covered from your arrival in the airport to the completion of our retreat. Relax and enjoy the most comprehensive and impactful journey through the Highlands of Guatemala!
