Meditation is something everyone can do. Practicing can help improve your health and wellbeing.
Explore MeditationThe Essence is a living community and retreat space devoted to conscious living, inner truth, and human connection. Hidden in the lush jungle of Tulum, they offer a sanctuary to pause, breathe, and remember who you are beneath the layers of doing. Each day unfolds with meditation, movement, and mindful sharing — simple yet profound practices that invite presence and clarity. Here, life itself becomes the teacher: the silence of the morning, the rhythm of the jungle, the reflection found in one another. Their retreats and immersions are not escapes from life but a return to it — an invitation to live with awareness, authenticity, and simplicity. Whether you come for a few days or stay for a season, The Essence is a space to realign with what’s real, and to rediscover the quiet joy of simply being.
