Guatemala Goddess Retreat
Feel your sacred wholeness as we embrace all of the parts of ourselves.
Be warmed in both heart and body through a seven-day journey in luscious Guatemala.
Our divine radiance shines through when we discover more of who we are and how to better care for ourselves.
We will experience a journey into sacred embodiment, supportive sisterhood, and empowered femininity coming home to ourselves with more love.
In our free time we can soak in the herbal baths, walk the trails, swim, sit in the sunshine, nap, dine, laugh with new friends, get a massage, and have fun at the bonfire and goddess party! You will be glowing.
Amazing and delicious, this retreat awoke my spirit and I am still vibrating from the high of it! – Oyamie Kali Maat
Bathed in acceptance, each workshop pairs a chakra with an archetypal goddess.
Chakras and goddesses are powerful ways into the body, psyche, and inner divinity. They assist us in honoring our strengths, and accepting our imbalances as we transform them into empowerment.
We explore the grounded goddess, the sensual goddess, the fierce goddess, the compassionate goddess, the creative goddess, the wise goddess, and the cosmic unity goddess, reclaiming these aspects within us.
This effective curriculum weaves sacred dance, yoga, meditation, journaling, song, ceremony, and sister circles and has been offered by Katie Wells for nine years.
The Location...

It’s an ideal location to unplug and enjoy the beauty of the nature and mysticism of ancient Mayan while bringing peace and softness to the mind, and rejuvenating energy to the body.
