Elemental Harmony Retreat
Arrival: PM of April 23rd
Departure: AM of April 28th

@ Casa CobAnanda, Lago Atitlan, Guatemala
with CJ Ananda, Coby & Gaia

Join us in the magical lake town of Tzunun'a where we will explore the transformation that is brought by each of the elements. We approach our studies holistically, delving into the true nature of being by examining how we resonate with Earth, Water, Fire, and Air.

You will be guided through this transformative experience at our brand new retreat space in the mystical town of Tzunun'a (
Kaqchikel for "Home of the Hummingbird"). You will arise to epic views of Lake Atitlan where you will enjoy the peace and quiet of a true immersion with nature. Our accommodations are rustic (tents) but comfortable (futons, blankets, shelves etc.). 

The natural world is our greatest teacher and our new space is a harmonious co-creation with the Spirits of the land. Purify thyself with Western, Ayurvedic, and Shamanic cleansing techniques and discover the perfection that lies within. Immerse in daily lessons to discover ancient Shamanic teachings.

Each day we will participate in activities that facilitate the purification and harmonization of the elements in the body.

  • Yoga / Tai Chi
  • Darshan (Spiritual Lessons)​
  • Plant Baths

The Venue: Casa CobAnanda

​This unique space was designed by Coby and Ananda in collaboration with our great Mother Earth.  It is not a retreat space, but a home built for our community, and we welcome you with open arms and great love. In order to build in harmony with nature,  Coby and Ananda are employing natural building techniques. This organic construction process is intensional and slow, so all rooming will be in tents for this retreat.

Enjoy short walks to beautiful waterfalls and the magnificent Lake Atitlan or relax on the property and enjoy the incredible view of the Volcanoes Atitlan and Toliman.

Hi Tribe, 
​

I just wanted to tell you how grateful I am that my path has crossed with Coby and Ananda. Since the Elemental Harmony Retreat I have felt a huge shift already (just ended a week ago!), feeling more open, lighter and true to myself. As a result i have made some beautiful connections and friendships and it was so special to share with these wonderful souls. Everyone who attended the retreat had a beautiful, powerful and transformational experience.

This time for me, every ceremony we've shared, has been all about expansion, connection and release. I walk away with new lessons and plenty of homework to work on before my next retreat... I can't wait!

I’m so excited! Thank you thank you thank you!

To my Kula,

If you are someone who happens to be reading this and is wondering about shamanic cleansing, I have written this for you.  For about 10 years now I have been intrigued by the world of plant medicine, but for one reason or another I was never called on my path to receive plant medicine... until now.  I just completed my first shamanic cleanse journey with Coby and Ananda on Lake Atitlan, Guatemala on their land.

For Coby and Ananda it's just as much about the ceremony and giving reverence that the sacred medicine deserves as it is about your safe experience with the medicine. The way they hold space for each participant is unparalleled.  So much presence, generosity, and love.  It is evident that Coby and Ananda have been chosen and choose to devote their lives to facilitating profound healing and transformation in others.  

I participated in this cleanse with 9 others.  All but 2 of us had prior experience with plant medicine and it was unanimous amongst the group that the level of service from Coby and Ananda was the best anyone had ever experienced.  The quality of the medicines are, without question, the best.  

At almost 37 years old and after many retreats and cleanses and personal development courses, I can honestly say this was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life.  It had hard and scary moments too, but Coby and Ananda are there for you every step of the way - and beyond.  I believed my experimental days of my twenties were over, but, at age 36, I experienced a very deep healing of my past.  A memory so old and suppressed that I was never even aware of it.  Now that suppressed energy has transformed into a rebirth and I feel great. I am still the same person, but I just feel more inner peace.

Thank you Spirit for your guidance. Thank you Kula for your support.

With Love,
Rebecca
