Most of us grew up hearing "be careful." We say "be aware" instead. It's a small shift — but it changes what a child feels in their body before they've even taken a step.
We just published our first children's book, and this post is about why it exists.

“Satsang” from sanskrit. Sat -truth- and Sangha -coming together- is an invitation to meet in truth.

Every morning and evening we gather in satsang
to practice gratitude, set intentions, ask questions, sharing and express ourselves.

Allow us to be witnessed, to listen without fixing or judging and to recognize ourselves in one another.

The circle itself is symbolic:
there is no hierarchy, no beginning and no end.
Everyone is seen, everyone belongs,
and each voice carries the same value.
The space is held and guided by Chi,
whose presence, insight, and facilitation
support clarity, safety, and deeper connection.
Through this guidance, the circle becomes a container
for reflection, integration, and collective awareness.

This is what one of our rooms looks like when you come and visit us 🪷

You get the full experience of living in a jungle close to nature. Every night, you can hear the sounds of the grasshoppers and the lizards. 🦎

Living in nature allows you the time and space to retreat from your normal, hectic life—to slow down and connect with yourself. 🧘🏼‍♀️

For more information about our retreats, visit our website. 🤗 (link in bio)

Welcome to our Jungle Massage 💆🏼‍♀️

Did you know that massage can be deeply healing? It helps the body, mind, and energy system return to balance. ⚖️

It can calm the nervous system, release stored emotions, and restore the natural flow of energy in the body — allowing you to feel grounded, safe, and connected again, both physically and emotionally. 🪷

We offer intuitive massage, Lomi Lomi massage, energy healing, and stretching sessions. 🧘🏼‍♂️

Stephanie’s words if it had made her grown to live with other people. 👆🏼

Sometimes living on our own can be comfortable but not always the most beneficial when it comes to growth.

Living with other people show us a clear reflection of ourselves. It can show us where we still hold onto limited beliefs and triggers.

When we get rid of those beliefs we can feel an expansion within ourselves and more ability to be around people without getting triggered.

We’ve been busy! ✨

Over the past few days, we’ve welcomed four new guests for our 14-day retreat — and two more are arriving today! 🌞

We’re so happy that so many people are coming to practice with us and experience something new. 🧘‍♀️ It’s truly one of the best gifts you can give yourself.

Since our retreats have limited spots, it’s important to book in advance. You can send a dm or go to our website for more information. 🌺

Every day we cook our own meals from scratch, using a lot of fruits and veggies from the local markets to get the best quality. 🥑

Our cuisine is vegan and mostly plant-based to really nourish the body and soul. There are a lot of benefits to eating vegan, some of them are: more energy and mental clarity, reduced risk of chronic disease, and alignment with compassion and non-harming for our planet and animals. 💚

Every day we eat 3 meals: 🥙
🍌 A nourishing breakfast bowl
🍉 A refreshing fruit juice with spirulina and chlorella for an extra boost
🍲 A big lunch that will keep you full the whole day

Yesterday, we spent the whole day in silence. We refrained from eating food and ended the day with a Mexican temazcal ceremony for cleansing and healing. ♨️

During the day, we practiced meditation in various forms: standing meditation, walking meditation, sitting, and lying down. We learned that meditation can be practiced in many ways — not just while sitting. 🌿

The reason we do all these practices is to show ourselves that we have the ability to handle much more than we think. 🙏

We finally offer our classes to anyone who wants to come and practice with us 🙌 — or if you’re simply curious about community living and want to know more!

Our schedule looks more or less the same every day, except that the practices never look exactly the same — which mirrors the flow of life itself 🌿

If you want to come and practice with us, please reach out on Instagram or WhatsApp 📲 and we’ll send you all the details. We are located 20 minutes from Tulum

Looking forward to seeing you! 💫
