Curated local experiences, including a fresh water mangrove swim and Mayan sea picnic in the ocean
Details
Exhale is for you if you’ve been holding a lot — mentally, emotionally, or physically — and haven’t had the space to fully let it land or move through. This retreat is intentionally designed to support a shift out of that constant state of doing, managing, and pushing through… and into a place where your body can finally soften. Through a blend of meditation, breathwork, and gentle movement, you’ll be guided into practices that help regulate your nervous system and bring you back into a steadier, more grounded state. At the same time, there is plenty of space woven throughout for rest, reflection, and simply being — without needing to fill your time. The environment itself plays a role in that shift. Sisal is quiet, open, and unhurried — making it easier to disconnect from external noise and start listening inward again. You don’t need to arrive feeling a certain way or ready to “do the work.” This space meets you where you are — and supports you in leaving with a greater sense of calm, clarity, and connection, along with simple practices you can carry into your everyday life.
Venue
Casa Karuna
5 ★ 23 Reviews
Casa Karuna is built on concrete piles that raise it from the natural terrain to allow the passage of local wildlife, the wastewater treatment system is based on biodigestors, therefore we take care NOT to deposit toilet paper in the toilets. We separate the garbage, recyclable materials, inorganic waste and with the organic waste we make our compost to fertilize the plants. The kitchen has a grease trap to prevent these from reaching the groundwater table and thus avoid contamination. We use handmade biodegradable detergents and soaps to keep the environment clean and healthy. The house has a covered terrace on the ground level and an outdoor terrace in the pool area, where there is also a bar to serve any type of drink that guests desire.
