Integrate
Join us for a rejuvenating retreat at the beach, where the soothing sounds of the ocean will accompany you throughout your stay. Over the course of a few days, you'll have the opportunity to engage in daily meditation and yoga sessions designed to promote relaxation and mindfulness.
Take advantage of your free time to explore the natural beauty surrounding you, whether it's a leisurely walk along the shore or a moment of quiet reflection with a book. Nourishing meals, crafted from fresh, local ingredients, will be provided to support your well-being and fuel your activities.
For those who wish to maintain some productivity during their time away, dedicated spaces will be available for work, allowing you to balance personal and professional commitments seamlessly. This retreat offers a perfect blend of connection and solitude, encouraging you to recharge while enjoying the beach environment.
Experience the transformative power of this serene setting as you prioritize self-care and personal growth.
Experience AWE
When we slow down, we create space to observe the small details that often go unnoticed in our fast-paced lives. Each moment becomes an invitation to engage with the world around us. The vibrant colors of the sky and ocean, the intricate patterns of raindrops on a window, or the sound of wind rustling through trees all reveal a beauty that may otherwise escape our attention.
In these quiet moments, we can experience a renewed sense of wonder. The laughter of children playing, the delicate hum of a busy bee, or the gentle rhythm of our own breath can spark a profound appreciation for life. By pausing and taking a breath, we allow ourselves to connect with the present, to reflect on our surroundings, and to embrace the awe that life consistently offers.
This intentional slowing down invites mindfulness, helping us to cultivate gratitude and celebrate the simplicity of existence. It reminds us that wonder is not reserved for grand occasions; it resides in the everyday—waiting to be noticed and cherished. In recognizing this, we foster a deeper relationship with the world, one that encourages us to remain open to the beauty that unfolds in each moment.

“Shaunna and Katrina curated an amazing relaxing retreat in Mexico. This trip had something for everyone; surfing, relaxing, adventures, exploring and everything in between. The massage therapist they hired was amazing and the beaches they picked were gorgeous. The food was delicious, healthy and nourishing. The excursions were full of adventure. They listened to everyone’s needs and had the ability to accomodate everyone’s wishes. I’ll definitely go on another retreat with them again.”
