About this trip

Gift yourself this week of self-care in Mexico at Mar De Jade Retreat Center and go back home feeling rejuvenated, reconnected and inspired.  Let Amber and Colleen lead you through a week of invigorating morning yoga classes and evening workshops focusing on Ayurveda, the science of living in rhythm with yourself and the seasons. The three workshops include learning about and practicing self Abhyanga (oil massage), living harmoniously with the seasons through diet and lifestyle, and guided restorative yoga with Marma point therapy. Midday you will have the opportunity to relax pool/ocean side or receive a four handed oil massage from Colleen and Amber. While you are in paradise have a one on one personalized Ayurvedic consultation with Colleen. This retreat center is unique because the ocean is literally steps from your room, the yoga space and the dining area. Farm to table meals lovingly prepared from their own garden will be served 3 times a day.

A portion of proceeds from guests’ stays at Mar de Jade support its non-profit programs, operated by MDJ Community Projects, which currently include: El Jardín, a Montessori – Waldorf inspired K – 6 school in Chacala; La Aldea, a trade school for youth who have dropped out of secondary school because of economic hardship; and El Rancho, an Organic Farm that supplies many of the products for Mar de Jade’s delicious meals.

Community Focused

In 1989, Mar de Jade established MDJ Community Projects, a non-profit organization which has supported initiatives from health and wellness programs, youth education, to sustainability and micro-industry projects. All projects are powered by the revenue we make from Mar de Jade, individual donations, and small grants. Over the last three decades, these projects have had an incredibly meaningful impact on the lives of at-risk youth and struggling families in our local communities.

Equilibrium was so different and so amazing. Off the grid in terms of energy but top shelf in terms of meals. The jungle setting created peace and serenity. Amber and Colleen included daily yoga, Ayurvedic workshops, spa treatments and indigenous rituals with plenty of time for reflection, journaling, and reading. Plus the opportunity to interact with amazing women made this an unforgettable experience.

Amber and Colleen are phenomenal. If you're questioning whether or not to join one of their retreats, my wholehearted advice is to do it. You'll have an amazing time.

This retreat was everything I didn't know I needed and MORE! When I signed up for this retreat I knew it would be a relaxing time but I didn't realize just how healing it would be. Under the guidance and care of Colleen and Amber it became safe to receive all the healing that was available over the course of the week. The daily yoga, powerful insight and discussion around Ayurveda, the beautiful food and the magical nature of Mar de Jade itself combined to create a vortex of healing that I highly recommend. Amber and Colleen create a safe place to just receive with no guilt or conditions, it is so freeing. Do not hesitate to say yes to this opportunity, it will be what you are needing and more!
