Upcoming Retreat in Mexico.
Ananda Yoga Retreat
Welcome to Ananda Yoga retreat, my first Yoga retreat held in Mexico. The retreat will be hosted in the stunning Amate Camp in Amatlan Quetzalcoatl, situated less than 2 hours from Mexico City. Stepping into this magical and sacred Aztec land, rife with untouched jungle, and surrounded by ancient mountains, cliffs and stones, one feels the powerful energy that surrounds the place. When I first visited Amatlan three years ago, I fell in love with it! I knew this was the place to host and share the retreat of my dreams.
The focus of the retreat is of course to rest and rejuvenate, but to also give ourselves time and space to step into our innate bliss. Through Yoga practices and ritual and ceremony we will work through the many layers that make us human beings, so that we might start to get in touch with the core of who we really are. And at our core, we each of us have a ‘Bliss body’ or in Sanskrit ‘Anandamaya Kosha’. Once we contact our bliss we do not need to seek for happiness, peace and validation from external sources, everything we need, we already have within. This retreat is the greatest of all affirmations of self love and inner happiness!
This course is for everyone, no matter how much or how little Yoga or spiritual practice you have delved into as an individual. This retreat is a portal into another reality away from the binds of our modern world.

Healing experiences.
On the first evening of the retreat we will go on a healing journey through sound. During our Sound Healing Journey you will get to experience the magic of the Gong, crystal, quartz and Tibetan bowls while you relax, restore and rebalance every single cell of your body. This is the perfect way to start the retreat and prepare ourselves for our bliss journey.
Sound Bath
Te Mazcal
Amate Camp’s traditional adobe Temazcalli is an ancient ceremony with its roots in indigenous Mexico. This deep and powerful medicine is an invitation to connect and pray to the Great Spirit and to the Four directions of the Medicine Wheel. The Temazcal is a representation of the womb of Mother Earth, inviting us to experience a form of rebirth and deep purification. Aho! (Prepare to sweat out your Toxins and feel reborn!)
Ice Bath
Through the Whim Hof breathwork method, you will safely explore the power of your mind and your breathing as you are guided into an ice bath immersion. Ice baths have an enormous amount of physical and mental benefits such as boosting your immune system, improving circulation, speeding up metabolism, and increasing overall vitality.
