Turning Inward – Cultivating The Light In A Season Of Darkness

We hope you can join us for this new and exciting collaboration of senior teachers – Melina Meza, Chiara Guerrieri, and Baxter Bell – each excited to share their knowledge with new and continuing students or teachers.

We’ll come together for an unforgettable week-long yoga retreat in sunny Baja, Mexico to prepare your body, mind, and soul for the holiday season, winter solstice, and New Year’s celebration. On retreat we will experience daily classes in yoga, meditation, and healthy living, as well as a full day of silence while luxuriating in the sunshine and support of Prana del Mar’s pristine, eco-friendly environment.

This stunning beachfront retreat center is the perfect place to drop into the winter rhythm and align your daily routines with nature. The spacious environment of Prana del Mar is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and Sierra de la Laguna mountains, which provide the perfect container to explore what Melina, Chiara, and Baxter will be offering – tools to help you turn inward during this slow, quiet, Yin time of the year.

Melina, Chiara, and Baxter are all experienced and dedicated yoga practitioners, each offering their own expertise and unique style of teaching.

• Melina will share winter Seasonal Vinyasa Yoga classes, introduce Ayurvedic practices for self-care, and teach Yin Yoga to prepare your body and mind for meditation.
• Chiara will offer core-based yoga classes and Non-Violent Communication workshops that will help you replace distressing habits of mind and language with new habits that engender compassion, understanding, and healing.
• Baxter will share his wisdom and evidence that shows how the yogic lifestyle supports healthy aging as well as offer nurturing and playful Hatha yoga classes for the young and young at heart.

In your free time, enjoy simple adventures such as walking on the golden sand beach; hiking behind the resort; dipping into the swimming pool, hot tub, or sauna; or trying a new adventure such as surfing, horseback riding, snorkeling, or whale watching. Prana del Mar will help you customize your vacation needs, whatever your spirit calls for.

Typical day on retreat:
Morning mediation, asana practice, breakfast, workshops in Ayurveda, Yoga for Healthy Aging, and non-violent communication, lunch, free time, sunset meditation, dinner, and evening program. Sunday through Monday morning will be held in silence except for your yoga classes.
