Lake Atitlan and Villa Sumaya stole my heart on my first visit. The incredible water, volcanic energy and beautiful Mayan culture are so healing and restoring. I literally find myself dreaming about the water and incredible sunsets.
This retreat holds the intention of reconnection to our elemental nature. We are essentially created from the five elements.Please join me as we take time to step away from the busy world and rediscover our own inner wisdom, connection to others and joy in daily life.
