  • Haramara Yoga Retreat Vacation

    The beautiful Haramara Retreat in Sayulita, Mexico, is a magical place for a yoga retreat and peaceful, and private, getaway. Nestled in the jungle, with accommodations amongst lush greens, and ocean views, Haramara is a one of kind serene place to escape to. With 12 acres of land, no electricity, open window showers, and accommodations, you’ll have a one of a kind adventure while retreating in nature, and enjoying the unique amentities of Haramara.

    This blissful tropical yoga destination is for anyone who needs some peace and quite, and ease, and is looking for a peaceful place to retreat, and restore. The crashing sounds of the ocean, and private beach, will surely nurse you to good health and wellbeing. It’s a great vacation spot to nurture your inner mermaid.

    Haramara means ‘grandmother of the sea.’ This tranquil setting has powerful and magical energy that heals, and resets the mind, body, and soul. There is something that happens internally when you choose to take a week off, shut of the cell, and ditch social media and email, and take time to enjoy, and be in nature. The grandmother energy is strong, and Haramara has a way to bring you back to your roots, connect you to your core, and help you heal the deep layers. You can reconnect to you, and redefine who and what that is, and nurture your inner joy, and natural way of being, and feeling. 

    I found this classy eco retreat to be soothing, calming for the mind, and freeing for the body. It’s amazing what can be found when you get away, and spend a week embracing the moment, living fully in the present, and spending the week doing whatever you need to help ya feel good.

    Haramara was the perfect reset for my new year, and helped me come alive in new ways.

    It’s mind, body, medicine for the heart and soul.

    The Haramara Retreat website described nicely, the secret mysteries that the yoga facilities unlock, “Most people come to Haramara for yoga or meditation retreats or teacher trainings. We returned for the spirit of the place — land that takes you in “like one more tree here.”

     

     

     

     

     

    Haramara has amazing fresh, local, organic food. The chef preps food daily, and uses natural ingredients. They don’t have left overs, and often cannot give you extra, because they believe in sustainability and making enough food, rather than wasting. I loved the unique flavors, the high quality meals, and the unique creations they served. Their passion, love, and care for mother nature, and the planet, was inspiring.

    The variety of culinary delights, lovely food decor, and wide selection of meals, made the dining great. They are very good at being mindful about allergies, and options. For you winos, there is organic wine, and a kind bar staff to help. Their natural desserts were tasty treats given at lunch and dinner too. Watch out for the special chef’s ice cream, that they usually serve on the last day. 😉 Don’t miss out of the great guacamole, and beet dip!

    Do enjoy the views, while dining, and enjoy the company too!

    Haramara is equipped with a variety of accommodations, including over 16 different cabanas, and dorm styles to choose from. Having no electricity makes the experience more tranquil, and soothing. I loved lighting the candles, waking up slowly, and enjoying the natural qualities of nature, and man, with limited resources. There are hammocks all over too.

    The Haramara yoga shalas are placed on a hilltop with gorgeous views of the ocean, coastlines, and jungle. No worries if you’re not a yogi, or into breathing, there are plenty of ways to spend your days.

    There is a clean salt water pool, and a nice jacuzzi to relax in. If it’s sunny, you can relax and lounge by the pool, or walk down to their private beach. Their health and wellness spa is delightful, with a variety of treatments and healing professionals to choose form. You can get a massage, while hearing the roar of the ocean. I recommend the ayurvedic facial, and taking the opportunity to indulge however much you can! The Haramara sweat lodge experience is an epic ritual that I’d recommend, and an amazing opportunity purge, let go, and have a one of a kind inner experience.

    Haramara is a classy, upscale, yoga retreat center located in the hills, above Sayulita Mexico. It’s perfect for nature lovers, anyone who needs to escape busy stressful business lifestyles, and great for the wanderlust yogi who has a passion for adventure, enjoys traveling, and wants a great yoga experience for your mind, body, and soul!

    There’s nothing better than waking up well to a yoga class, watching the sunrise over the jungle, and breathing into a new day. Having the opportunity to find your zen, reconnect, and regroup, is an extraordinary experience I invite anyone to do. The staff is friendly, the food is delicious, and the views and sunsets will change your perceptive about what it means to live well. Check it out, and let Haramara help you feel alive.

    I wish I could go to Haramara, with CorePower, and Amy and Beth every New Year to reset, and rejuvenate!!

    You’ll leave better than you came, with memories, new friends, and an experience you’ll never forget.

  • CorePower Yoga Retreat at Haramara

    I had heard many positive critiques, and great stories about the ‘famous’ Haramara Retreat. While teaching at CorePower Yoga, I had many people tell me how amazing this retreat center was. I must admit, when I got there, it was better than I ever imagined, and more than what I had ever heard.

    CorePower Yoga did a fantastic job putting this yoga retreat together! I was impressed with the nice balance of yoga, meditation, relaxation, and ease. Although I personally thought two yoga classes a day, may be too much, our leaders did an excellent job creating the schedule, and providing variety in the yoga styles and classes.

    It was an adventure, full of twists, challenges, and wild turns, along the way. We all were able to laugh, meet new friends, connect, and come together. 

    Haramara is a one of a kind yoga retreat located in the jungle, above Sayulita, Mexico. It’s a place designed to help people get back in touch with nature, unplug, and enjoy. The ocean views, sunsets, and peaceful settings, will anchor you into a restful state. You will be amazed at how fast a week flies by, and where time goes, while doing nothing. Learn more about the Haramara experience.

    I went solo, on my yoga escape. As a wanderlust yogi, I had no problem adapting to the environment, or with the group. I met like minded souls, reconnected with other yogis I had known, and enjoyed the company of like minded people, I got lucky to be able to attend with two my favorite yoga teachers, mentors, and friends. I can’t lie, the experience would not have been the same if they were not there. I’d been wanting to go to Haramara for quite some time, and now, I wish I would have said yes sooner.

    You’ll never regret taking a week out of your life, to change up your normal settings, try something new, and have an incredible adventure of a lifetime.

    The two yoga shalas are out of dream, on top of a mountain overlooking lush greens and oceans. While taking in the view, and breathing in the fresh air, it really brings new kind of peace of mind. Although there is no heat, like most of CorePower’s classes, I enjoyed the ambiance, open air, and new challenge of doing yoga in a natural (non heated or stuffy closed room) state. It really took my yoga practice to a new level, and helped me appreciate so much more.

     

     

     

     

     

    Forever, I’ll remember those yoga views, the serenity on themountain top, and the experience I had in Haramara.

    Nature changes you. Anytime you make a change, get out of your environment, and take a chance, the Universe has a funny way of bringing you what you need. When you go without expectations, and no longer have your routine, you’re able to become open to opportunities. It’s in that state, I enjoyed Haramara, and took every day as an epic adventure to live present, get out of the mind, and enjoy what or who was right in front of me. I can only say, magic, to describe what happened while retreating, and relaxing, and being.

    The CorePower Yoga retreat in Haramara was yoga bliss, taken to a new level!

    While showering by candle light, with open windows, and sleeping in cozy clean dorms with new friends, and falling asleep to the crashing waves of the ocean, I hold many memories I’ll never forget. I transformed on every level, mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to escape in the jungle, and explore Haramara, and Sayulita Mexico, on this yoga retreat.

    If you’re ever feeling the urge, and listening to that inner call, I say

    go for it, and take the chance, jump on board, charge the card, and go. CorePower is known for their yoga, and they have some of the best yoga teachers around. They are great at facilitating, taking feedback, and giving you a good experience. The

    re are also workshops and extra classes you can go to if you want to deepen your practice. I’m sure they have their retreats led by the best yogis, who really embody the yoga philosophy, and live the practice on their mat, and in their lives.

    This retreat was less of a workout, but a peaceful and perfect
    work in. Like anything in yoga, we can choose how we perceive life, and what our experience is. When we let go of fear, explore the unknown, and go into new environments, we’re able to change our lens, accept ourself, and become wiser in our own process of discovery. A yoga retreat is, I think, the best way to restore your mind, body, and wellbeing!

    When you get the chance, get to Haramara, and have an experience, you’ll never forget!
