Amṛta: Immersive Āyurveda and Yoga Retreat in Mexico
El Pescadero, Baja California Sur, Mexico
Gratitude for stepping into this journey with us; a process that transcends the limited time and space of a "retreat". Most often, routines, rituals, and protocols acquired during "retreats" are not sustained beyond the curated experience. Amṛta empowers you to adapt and adopt āyurveda into your present lived experience. The individualized nature of this retreat allows you to awaken to endless possibilities of mind, body, and spirit connection in a nurturing and intimate setting. Amṛta is the beginning of a restful journey into integrating you into an āyurvedic way of being in a space with epic sunsets and tropical winds. A nurturing space and experience to integrate and embody the lessons learned during the last few years. During this 7 day immersive experience you will be guided and nourished through foundational āyurvedic ritual, treatments, therapies, yoga asanā, intentional rest, and rituals to ignite Śakti; the all pervading force that is us. This is the first retreat in a series of 4 immersive experiences to support you in navigating Pançakarma detoxification therapy (Purvā and Pradhāna Karma). Guided by Ranmalee and Shanel, participants will deep dive into strengthening dhatu and ojas (tissue and immunity) to get the body and mind prepared for future "detox and letting go". Located on organic farm land and a 5 min walk away from a secluded beach, the surroundings lends itself to an immersive āyurvedic lifestyle experience. All food will be locally sourced and prepared by local chefs who are experienced in traditional Mexican cuisine. Meals will include traditional regional Mexican cuisine adapted to the foundational āyurvedic principle of food as medicine. You will leave this retreat refreshed, rejuvenated, nourished, grounded, and accountable for not only your own wellbeing but for the wellbeing of your community. A journey to be taken together cultivating profound spirit and soul practices.

Our Amṛta offering coincides with celestial movements of the Autumn equinox and the September Amāvāsya (new moon). A time for balance and integration of all agni activity in our lives.
You will receive an āyurvedic consultation 2 weeks prior to the retreat. This is a mandatory consultation so that we get to know you. Your nutrition, herbs, therapy, and routine will be based on your specific needs. During the retreat, you receive support from the practitioners to best implement your āyurvedic protocol.
You will be guided into a deeper understanding of Dinaçarya (daily intentional rituals and routines), spirit practice (Śakti Pūja), ritual, ceremony, discussions, workshops, intentional rest, and nourishment in a collaborative community environment. You will have time to relish in this luxurious space, take walks on the beach and sit by the fire embraced by the ocean breeze. You will have space in your mind and body to reflect on you and how you show up in "community".
