About this event

Early November marks the gateway of the summer season in Guatemala giving us crisp daylight hours and soft balmy evenings. Together we will move through the potent time portal of Día de los Muertos or Halloween celebrating life & death through local traditions of honoring ancestors. You will have the opportunity to participate in traditional workshops with indigenous teachers -- fire ceremony, tobacco ritual, temescal sweat, and mayan cosmovision with cacao. Integration through daily movement and meditation classes is provided and encouraged to support personal illumination. This is a week for you to remember elemental embodiment, soul essence and the art of alchemy.

Personal Mayan calendar or tarot readings, limpiezas or bodywork sessions are available upon request or as add-ons.

You will enjoy meals prepared on site with organic conscious cuisines sourced through local farms. Family style brunch and dinner are included, and you will be walking distance from town if you want to grab a bite in between.

Plenty of free time is included for your own explorations - day trips to other towns for shopping, enjoying the lake via paddleboard or kayak, trampoline, or simply napping in a hammock! Hiking in the nature reserve Tzankujil is adjacent to the property and can be accessed easily.

Lush’s private beach area and dock is situated right next to the sauna and includes a natural solar heated plunge pool. It can be enjoyed anytime during the day for all guests. The wood burning sauna is included 2x per week for 2 hours.

Elegant accommodations, each room unique, offers rejuvenation space for 22 guests -- we are so excited to welcome you to connect with the land and each other.

Transportation to and from the airport is provided.

Each ticket offers: 6 nights/7 days, 2 meals day, 3 immersion workshops, 14 integration classes, 2 saunas, airport transportation, all hotel amenities and TBD surprises...
