The food we serve is designed to seduce our senses, nourish and please our taste and enrich us every time on all levels of being. Following the ancient wisdom of the Vedas, we believe that every meal should be like a ceremony to life and that food should be beautifully presented, nutritionally balanced and healing through its fresh ingredients, rich basic components and appropriate combinations of textures and chemistry. All meals at Haramara are extraordinary, made with organic, fresh, natural and local ingredients. They are enjoyed in beauty surrounded by the natural colors, aromas and sounds of the jungle and the ocean, which reminds us of the deepest meaning of existence.

Schedule

Full Program Check-in at 1:00 PM Check-out at 11:00 AM This retreat begins as you arrive at the airport in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. You are met by a van driver and shuttled for an hour long trip along the Pacific coast with others coming up into the mountains to Haramara. You will be met at the gates by friendly local staff who guide you to the treetop patio overlooking the jungle for a welcome snack as your bags are delivered to your casita. Dinner is served at 7 pm when you meet the rest of your retreat and are introduced to Haramara's staff and oriented to this unique and beautiful retreat week. Each day begins at 7:30 with 45 minutes of Mary's women's qigong either on the beach or in either the sunrise or sunset open air shala. A relaxed full breakfast is served each day after qigong before the morning's somatic teachings and Biodanza movement. Lunch is served midday before a free afternoon for relaxing at the beach or pool, lounging in the cafe, or enjoying any of the optional spa sessions available on site. Several afternoons Mary will include small group coaching and guidance before early evening dinner and a relaxing evening. Wednesday day is entirely free for the mile long stroll into Sayulita, hiking to an exclusive private beach, participating in a native temezcal sweat lodge or just relaxing. Friday evening ends the retreat with a fire on the beach and a special culminating experience. Before you leave Saturday morning enjoy a special Mexican brunch as you say goodbye to Haramara and take with you lifelong memories of coming back to yourself and your senses.

"I’m remembering Mary’s offerings from the Retreat now that I’m home. Reminding myself to breathe, too - hand on heart to feel it - still walking bare foot in the house ( no socks and berks yet ) trying to hang onto a bit of calm presence, if even for a few seconds at a time"
