“Anamaya is the best and most beautiful place to rejuvenate! I had the most amazing week. I cannot recommend Anamaya enough. I went as a solo traveler and had the best time. The food was incredible. I was blown away by how delicious, fresh, healthy and clean it all was. The whole week was a great balance of group activities plus time for solo adventures. This trip was the perfect was to disconnect, relax and rejuvenate.” – Eden

Self-Love Ceremony: Celebrating the Sacred Self

“I forgive you for any time when you forgot your True Nature: you are a divine force of Life itself. You are Love in human form.”

Say this to yourself and remember: Everything happens for you, not to you. Every setback is really a set up for your next progression. After all, healing is not linear.

During this sacred self-love ceremony, you will dance with your shadow, invite release, open your heart, find self-acceptance and return to a deep-rooted trust.

Through mantra, movement, meditation, breathwork, fire ritual, song & sound, we will release what’s standing in the way of loving ourselves fully, cultivate compassion for ourselves, and emerge feeling reborn into a place of unconditional love.

Get ready to…

  • Arrive into a sacred space of self-love
  • Worship your wildness within
  • Soften into your divine power
  • Re-enter the world with loving fierceness

Step by step, breath by breath and in the stillness, prepare to find parts of yourself awakening: your smile, your voice, your connection to something greater than yourself.

Return to an inner knowing of who you are and why you’re here. In that knowing, you might just find:

There is so much peace. There is so much Love.

Duration is 120 min.
Price is $77 (or $155 for all three workshops)

 

Blissful Breathwork: Pranayama for the Chakras

Bliss is your birthright. Affirm it during this powerful breathwork practice of energetic awakening.

Ground, center, open your heart and connect with higher consciousness as you practice Pranayama (breathwork) that will soothe your soul and help you reach Samadhi.

Strategically sequenced, this combination of breathing techniques invites a harmonious flow throughout your your energy centers, opening chakras and balancing their energy.

During this experience, you will explore anywhere from 5-7 different yogic breathing techniques, each with their own unique healing benefits. Beginning with light movement and ending with an extended savasana, you will emerge from this practice feeling more peaceful, grateful, relaxed and aligned.

After all, breathwork is proven to help:

  • Unite your body and mind
  • Balance your nervous system
  • Energize and empower you
  • Create a calm meditative state
  • Awaken your authentic Self
  • Promote presence, awareness and inner peace
  • And so much more!

Option to enhance your practice: Bring sacred items to support you through your breathwork journey (crystals, totems, etc.) and a journal to reflect on your experience.

Duration is 75 min.
Price is $44 (or $155 for all three workshops)

 

Jungle Bathing: Return to Your Roots & Become One With Nature

We are a part of nature, and nature is within us. You were born to bloom.

During this 75-minute nature immersion, you will slowly and silently saunter through the jungle, inviting all of your senses to awaken. Embrace your childlike sense of wonder as you stop to feel the velvet texture of a flower petal, smell the sap of a tree, taste the rainwater from a blade of grass. Look up, down and all around. Stop to admire and witness. Breathe with the wind and the trees. See everything as if it is brand new.

Then, close your eyes and tune into your sixth sense that lives at the third eye: your inner wisdom. The part of you that has always known: You are Nature. Through our roots, we are all connected. We are one.

Inspired by the Japanese healing modality Shinrin-yoku (forest bathing), this experience includes a walking meditation that is accessible for most ability levels as well as an assortment of nature-based meditations and breathing practices.

You will emerge from this experience feeling more connected to Mother Earth and more open to receiving her support and guidance.

Duration is 75 min.
Price is $44 (or $155 for all three workshops)
