Our schedule is spacious, with time to relax and unwind and/or explore the beach and adventure in beautiful Baja. We'll welcome a week of nature based replenishment, yoga practices and teachings sourced in this living wisdom tradition, all in the company of the sun, stars and sea. There will be plenty of time to roam the desert gardens and labyrinth on site, stroll along the beach, be nourished by delicious and freshly prepared food, sit on your ocean front terrace or salt water pool side, and simply be. This all-inclusive 6 night/7 day retreat is designed for and exclusively utilized for retreat. Walk on the beach, observe Humpback whales that come to calve and nurture their young during the winter months in the bay, and breathe deep as we bask in beauty, enliven our senses, and welcome what arises as we journey with the gifts of practice.

Taking place at Prana del Mar, this eco-luxe beach side retreat is an ideal hosting center which is clear through the attention to detail - the gorgeous and minimalistic aesthetic, the practice & gathering spaces themselves are breathtaking and support depth, the food is fresh and authentic to the region, and the entire facility is solar powered and committed to care of the earth. 

Our daily sessions will be a mix of embodied and adaptable practices such as slow flow breath based yoga, meditation, yoga nidra, self-inquiry/reflection, group discussions, time in nature, optional adventures/excursions in the surrounding areas and plenty of free time to relax, walk the beach, read by the salt water pool, and just be! You'll have the opportunity to create space and remember who you are underneath all the roles and obligations we tend to in daily life.

Amie Heeter, E-CYT 500hr, has been offering yoga & meditation related retreats regionally in the Midwest since 2012, and abroad since 2015. This will be her fourth time hosting at Prana del Mar, one of the favorites she's discovered in all of her travels. 

Amie is a nature enthusiast, adventurer, and life long learner particularly motivated by the intersection of mind/body traditions of the East and modern research sourced in neuroplasticity & mindfulness in the West. As a certified yoga and meditation teacher since 2003, she regards the modalities of yoga, meditation, breath, and meditation as as some of the best technologies available to sustain health in our body, cultivate stability and resilience in our mind, and open pathways in our luminous heart, our inner wellspring of both intution and innate belonging. She hosts group courses, private coaching, and regularly leads retreats and cultural excursions regionally and abroad.

Also a lifestyle photographer, Amie is a visual storyteller who loves to capture the wonder of the world around her. She recently took part in documenting the release of wolves into Isle Royale National Park, and photographed tours she co-led in Thailand, the south of India and Morocco. She lives in Madison, WI, with her husband and two daughters.
