An Ancestral Yoga Retreat
Day of the Dead in
Oaxaca, Mexico
October 28th - November 7th, 2023
Lizbeth is partnering with the indigenous and local Shamans to acknowledge the symbiotic relationship between life and death. We are guiding traditional and authentic sets of experiences, for instance: Altar making and the meaning of life and death, yogic practices (pranayama, yoga, meditation, mudra), Cacao Ceremony, Temescal Purification, as well as diving into an Ancestral Sound Healing Ceremony at the top of Monte Albán (the archeological site is reserved for our group only).
I invite you to join us to experience the luscious and majestic heritage of Oaxaca, one of the most spiritual destinations in Mexico; owing to its cultural, artistic, and culinary legacies. November is the best time to visit Oaxaca, walk through its historical sites, artisanal and weaving markets, taste the spirit of mezcal, and stroll down the Macedonio Alcalá scenic corridor. The streets that branch out from it will allow you to discover important museums, such as the Textile Museum and Oaxaca’s Museum of Contemporary Art.
Preliminary Retreat Logistics
An interdisciplinary, intercultural yogic retreat is not your ordinary travel excursion. Especially like this one to Oaxaca, Mexico this October 30th - November 5th, 2023. For the past year my team in Mexico and I have been working on providing an experience of a lifetime alongside local partners and knowledge. We consider traveling not just for leisure but for the purposes of cultural education and somatic embodiment. The local shamans, sound healers, weavers, and indigenous agriculturist along with my expertise as an Integrative MindBody Therapist have crafted a precise and artfully designed retreat where you arrive at the mecca of Mexico's colonial capital: one of the safest and most economically stable regions in the country.
Individual rooms $3,500.00 & Shared rooms $3,200.00
