Elemental Harmony Retreat
March 14th - 19th, 2022
@ Casa CobAnanda, Lago Atitlan, Guatemala
with Ananda, Coby, Steph & VJ
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, Air and Ether.
You will be guided through this transformative experience at our home and 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 that comes from a true immersion with nature. The natural world is our greatest teacher and our space is a harmonious co-creation with the Spirits of the land. Purify thyself with Shamanic cleansing techniques and discover the perfection that lies within.
Our Teachers will be the medicines of Cacao, Washuma, Ayahuasca, and the practice of Sweat Lodge. The retreat concludes with an optional day of integration (the 18th) where you will have time and space to enjoy the beautiful views, hike to the lake for a cold plunge, take plant baths, and enjoy a self-guided sauna.

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. |

Testimonial

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! Annabel PS - Contact me if you want some inside insight on the retreat :) [email protected] |
