Day 2: we will visit a private Cenote (Cenote Elvira). While here we will surround ourselves in the mystic and magical energy of the jungle. We will have time to swim, have a yoga session in their private natural event space, and have a mala-making ceremony and workshop.
After the Cenote, there will be time to relax back at Lunita for the afternoon.
For dinner, we will have the unique opportunity to immerse in the vibrant flavors of Mexican cuisine through a hands-on cooking class led by the resort's expert chef.
Nestled in the lush surroundings of the jungle, this culinary experience is more than just a cooking lesson; it's a journey into the heart of Mexico's rich culinary heritage.
We will end the day with a meditation session.
Day 3: We will begin the day with breakfast and a short hike or yoga class, followed by a sound healing session in the pool at Lunita Resort.
Sound healing takes on a transformative quality when combined with water. The body, immersed in water, becomes an ideal conductor for the vibrations from instruments like Tibetan singing bowls or gongs. In this unique environment, sound waves travel more effectively, creating a deeper, more intense healing experience.
In the afternoon we will head to the beaches and town of Puerto Morelos and stay out for dinner!
Day 4: We will begin the day with a beach workout, and then head over to Holbox Island where we will spend the day. There is snorkeling, hammock hangs, and beautiful beaches to relax on and explore. We will end the day with yoga on the beach at sunset.
We will have dinner out on the island, and hopefully be able to witness the beautiful bioluminescence that is present on Holbox Island during this time.
Day 5: We will begin the day with a nourishing breakfast, followed by a Temazcal Ceremony. Temazcal, an ancient healing ritual, offers a profound experience that nurtures both the soul and the body. Originating from the indigenous peoples of
Mesoamerica, this traditional sweat lodge ceremony combines physical
detoxification with spiritual purification.
In the temazcal, participants are enveloped in herbal steam, which is believed to
cleanse the body of toxins and impurities. The intense heat and steam also
stimulate circulation and can aid in muscle relaxation, offering physical benefits
akin to a deep tissue massage. This physical cleansing process is more than just a
detox; it's a symbolic shedding of emotional and spiritual burdens.
Relax and reflect after this ceremony by the pool, in your room, or walking around the beautiful jungles at our venue.
Later on, there will be a photoshoot at Lunita Resort, where we can document the connections and journey we experienced together at the Root to Rise Retreat.
We will end the day with dinner and a tree planting ceremony.
Day 6: On our last morning we will have breakfast and a small departure ceremony to say goodbye to all our new friends, and close off the experience together.
