This week-long Somatic Yoga & Meditation Retreat will be held at a unique Eco-Luxury destination, located on the western coast of Mexico, just 35-minutes south of Zihuatanejo/Ixtapa International Airport (ZIH). Nestled between the sparkling waters of the Pacific Ocean and the majestic Sierra Madre Mountains near the village of Juluchuca, Playa Viva is situated on a mile of pristine and private beach…Enjoy the rugged, unspoiled beauty of Mexico in the guilt-free luxury of an environmentally-conscious resort dedicated to sustainability and regenerative practices. Playa Viva enjoys a year-round semi-tropical climate with approximately 300 sunny days a year and temperatures ranging from 73 to 93 degrees.
You will be immersed in nature at this resort. Each of the 12 eco-luxury rooms has an ocean view. Morning and evening yoga/meditation practices are held in an open-air studio, steps from the beach. There will be plenty of time each day to stroll along the pristine beach, sit by the pool, or swing in a hammock. Playa Viva also has a turtle sanctuary on its property for you to visit. It is likely that we will be there during the time that the turtles hatch, allowing us to witness their heroic journey to the ocean.
Wednesday will be a Free Day to choose from several fun options including on-site or off-site excursions or a full day in the surf or reading in your palapa.
Playa Viva takes health very seriously, and that mindset starts with the health of the earth and continues to include all living systems that support food production, including the producer, you and your family. This includes delivering farm-to-table dining experience that ensures you are served fresh, healthy foods from their farm and other local farmers. They are conscious that each guest comes to the table with their own perspective and thus accommodate many diets, including Vegan, Vegetarian, Pescatarian, low to no sugar, gluten-free and other special dietary concerns.
Discounted early bird pricing is available through December 12, 2021.
“It is largely because of your retreat in Costa Rica that I had the courage to apply for a Fulbright as an older scholar and return to Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai University to continue my research on the resettled Hmong. Thank you!!!” Wendy—Berkeley

"Thank you, once again, for a wonderful retreat. I so admire your ability to galvanize a group of idiosyncratic humans (!) in a productive and compassionate community. A rare talent, for sure. I loved being part of it." Ashley—Richmond, Virginia
"Dear David: Thank you so much for hosting such a marvellous retreat in an idyllic setting. I can’t wait to go back - count me in for the next one. I forgot to mention how much good the week away did for me. I came back with renewed vigour and enthusiasm. Ideas flowing and so much achieved since my return. Thank you!! You are a miracle worker.
