Our 15th annual Mexico Retreat –  Explore a unique, subtle and dynamic approach to yoga, movement, breathwork and the inner stillness of meditation with Patricia and Surya, who bring over 40 years of experience to their teaching.  Be inspired to open beyond your normal reference points to awaken to an expanded, enlivened, renewed and attuned sense of Self.

Awaken each day in a land of endless beauty …  A retreat center located in the lush jungle, nestled against crystal clear Punta Monterrey beach. Experience tropical serenity while immersed in some of the richest wild landscapes ~ bioluminescent beaches, sea turtles, dolphins, whale sightings, and tropical fish. Practice in a light-filled, spacious, ocean air filled yoga shala and return home feeling revitalized, renewed, relaxed and re-connected to yourself and to what truly matters in your life.

Each day there will be three sessions. The focus of our sessions is to open energy pathways, quiet the mind and to remember and experience the stillness and ease of our True Nature.  On the arrival there will be an afternoon and evening session and on the departure day there will be a 2 hour morning class.

Yoga sessions invite the cultivation of deep listening, and fluid unwinding, while awakening sensation as guide back to body’s innate intelligence. This approach to practice, shifts the habit of doing asana to an unfolding, by feeling and sensing our way thru the practice. Sessions will be guided with periods for self exploration and discovery.

Meditation and self inquiry sessions will focus on becoming familiar with the rest and ease of our essential nature in the midst of all activity. The meditation sessions offer mindfulness and breath awareness based on Vipassana meditation as well as non-dual, open awareness meditation and self inquiry.

Movement explorations allow for slipping thru the cracks of our conditioning, experiencing a different vibrational energy to directly embody Essence and True Home.

Breathwork is one of the most effective methods of personal transformation, enhanced wellbeing and the direct experience of expanded consciousness.  It is a profound dimension of our retreats.

Punta Monterrey Tropical Beach Resort is a remote ecological reserve on a private beach amidst more than 300 acres of jungle.  All rooms are constructed with bio-climatic architecture making seamless with the natural world, yet enclosed for optimal comfort.

Nature is ever-present at Punta Monterrey, with 100’s of species of birds in the jungle. Late February is normally dry season so we can expect each day to be sun-filled.
