BREATHE YOUR WAY INTO DEEPER NERVOUS SYSTEM ALIGNMENT

LET'S BREATHE IT OUT! 

Join me for our next group somatic breathwork sessions focused on releasing stress, calming the nervous system, and allowing a somatic release of old energy and trauma patterns stuck in the body.

I will guide you through a 60-minute breathwork journey, including breath holds and various prompts. The first phase is focused on activating your sympathetic nervous system and releasing stuck emotions. The second half is focused on slowing it down to clear and ground the body by activating your parasympathetic nervous system.

Download the Somatic Release Breathwork Workbook to learn more about this healing modality and how it works. Included are several journal prompts to help integrate your breathwork session and assist in understanding the deeper connection between the body and stored emotions/stress that often comes up during breathwork to be released.

A Time for Reflection and Renewal

WAYEB: Mayan New Year

February 13th -18th, 2025
Lake Atitlan, Guatemala


A "Time Out of Time" 

In the Mayan tradition, Wayeb is a sacred five-day period marking the transition between the old and new Mayan solar year. Unlike the rest of the calendar, these days are seen as a liminal, in-between time—an opportunity to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the natural world and one’s inner self. It is a time to honor ancestors, engage in rituals of purification, and set intentions for the year ahead.

Join me as I travel to Lake Atitlan this February  to honor the sacred Mayan tradition of Wayeb with Mayan elder of the Tzutujil tradition, Nana Mimi Navichoc.

This retreat will weave the energy of the Jaguar with the sacred energies of the Nahuales, the guardians of the mountains. We will visit 5 Mayan Sacred Altars where we will learn to invoke the energies of the mountains, to prepare sacred offerings for the fire and connect with the Nahuales.

A Mayan ceremony is an offering to life, to Mother Earth, and to the animals. During this retreat we will celebrate the Mayan Wayeb "time out of time" and the Mayan New Year. 

Through ancient ceremonies and cultural immersions, you’ll reconnect with the rhythms of the Mother Earth. You will also learn about the local Tz'utujil culture, traditions, and gastronomy.

Limited spaces are available for this unique retreat—reserve your spot today and align yourself with the wisdom of the ages.
