Path of the Heart retreat, Bacalar, Mexico

January 4th - 10th

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it”

Rumi

Imagine yourself at Habitas Bacalar, a sanctuary nestled between the vibrant jungle and the mystical lagoon—one of the few places on Earth where ancient stromatolites, life’s original oxygen creators, still thrive. These living fossils reflect the essence of life itself, reminding us of the sacred interconnectedness of all beings. This retreat offers a rare opportunity to rejuvenate your body, open your heart, and connect deeply with the Earth’s transformative energy.

At the core of this retreat is the heart connection. True transformation begins by unlocking the heart. Through a series of holistic practices, you’ll embark on a journey that brings you closer to your own essence. Kundalini Yoga, Shamanic arts, Water Therapy, Sound and Voice healing, ancestral healing, and creative writing will guide you into spaces where the heart can truly open—spaces where vulnerability transforms into strength, and where love, compassion, and peace flow effortlessly.

Each morning, as the jungle awakens around you, the lagoon’s crystalline waters beckon for a swim, inviting you to refresh and cleanse. The tranquil surroundings—the stillness of the lagoon and the grounding presence of the jungle—create the perfect environment to reflect your inner transformation.

As the day winds down, the evenings offer even deeper experiences. We gather under the stars for sacred evening ceremonies, where you’ll connect with ancient traditions, allowing your soul to heal and expand. The ceremonies are supported by medicine music (led by our talented musician Hunab) where each note and rhythm becomes a healing force, guiding you into a state of balance and emotional release. The vibrations of the music work in harmony with the tranquil energy of the lagoon, enveloping you in peace and deep reflection.

You’ll also experience the healing properties of Water Therapy, where the lagoon’s pure waters cleanse and restore your body and soul. These therapies are more than just physical treatments—they are rituals of renewal, allowing you to surrender to the flow of life and immerse yourself in the transformative power of water.

Dinners at the hotel’s restaurant Siete will be a sacred affair, with each meal served under the starlit sky. Using local, seasonal ingredients, the menu offers vegetarian, meat, or fish options that nourish your body, mind, and spirit. Every dish is crafted with intention, reflecting the energy of the land and enhancing your healing journey.

Our retreat includes a one-day excursion to the nearby Mayan ruins, where you will connect with the ancient wisdom of the Maya—a civilization deeply attuned to the Earth and the cosmos. This sacred journey will deepen your connection to the land and its timeless energy.

This retreat is a profound and transformative experience, designed to reset your life, renew your body, and awaken your soul. By connecting with the heart and embracing the healing powers of nature, you will leave feeling lighter, clearer, and ready to move forward with a deeper sense of purpose and love.

Join us on this sacred journey and let your heart, body, and soul be transformed.
