Winter Solstice Retreat
December 18th – 22nd 2020
Casa de los Secretos, San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
Winter solstice is a joyous celebration of life and spirituality, uniting people and traditions worldwide in gratitude of the sun’s beneficence. As the sun reaches its nadir, winter solstice is a powerful time of purification and healing, of regeneration and renewal.
This year’s winter solstice retreat, held at the beautiful boutique hotel Casa de Los Secretos in San Miguel de Allende, will consist of three sweat lodges with yoga and individual and group cleansings each morning.
Through the lodges, we will explore our relationship to the elements, the ancestors and the world of energy, both light and dark, confronting our fears and cutting through obstacles. In the darkness of the lodge we can burn through our own darkness, unburdening ourselves of doubt, conflict and unprocessed emotion.
In this sacred and medicinal space, we are naturally inclined to soften and surrender, to make friends with our fears and vulnerability. The moon is brought back into the house, meaning that only when we have united the light and dynamism of the male energy with the darkness and spaciousness of the female, can we bring our being back into balance. The power to transform lies at the very heart of the sweat lodge; the poisonous grip of the ego is transmuted, enabling the primordial intelligence to shine through.
The retreat will be fully catered, organic vegetarian with vegan options prepared by the renowned Mexican chef Alma Caballero. All the ceremonies will be held in Spanish and English. Accommodation will be in shared rooms. Single occupancy rooms may be available for a supplement.
