Mexican Bliss Retreat with Ame Wren and Georgia Reath
March 17-24th, 2012
www.xinalaniretreat.com
Join Ame and Georgia (www.bluelightyoga.com) on the ultimate eco-chic retreat in Mexico. There are no roads leading to the Xinalani Retreat Center; instead, the property is surrounded by 10 acres of unspoiled jungle and pristine beaches on the southern shore of Banderas Bay. Only 12 miles south of Puerto Vallarta International Airport, the property is only accessible by boat. With fifteen ocean-front suites, two yoga studios, a resident chef well versed in the principles of raw food, ayurveda cuisine and macrobiotics (all food is gourmet vegetarian based on locally grown produce or freshly caught fish and seafood), a supporting staff, and a spa menu specially designed for yogis, Xinalani is undoubtedly the place to break from New England’s long cold winter.
Each morning Georgia or Ame will alternate leading a two-hour sweaty solar-inspired asana practice, and each late afternoon, a 90-minute cooling lunar-inspired asana and meditation practice. The rest of the day is limitless: bask in the sun on a white sand beach, ride the panga (a traditional fishing boat) to see dolphins, whales and sea turtles, (time out, fresh guacamole and chips anyone?), nap in your open-air suite, surf the waves only steps away from your bed or for the novice surfers- take a lesson, or for the foodies- take a cooking class, get a massage or facial, take a hike through the surrounding jungle…just be sure to fit it all in before a delicious candlelit dinner with friends.
