About the Retreat
Gift yourself this week of self-care in Mexico at Mar De Jade Retreat Center and go back home feeling rejuvenated, reconnected and inspired. Let Amber and Colleen lead you through a week of invigorating morning yoga classes and evening workshops focusing on Ayurveda, the science of living in rhythm with the seasons. As apart of the retreat you will receive a personalized Ayurvedic consultation with Colleen to dive deep into how the wisdom of this ancient medical science can benefit YOU. Additionally, you will receive a private yoga session with Amber to support you with guided insights on personalized alignment for your body, mind and spirit. This retreat center is unique because the ocean is literally steps from your room, the yoga space and the dining area. Farm to table meals lovingly prepared from their own garden will be served 3 times a day.
