Join Marni Entrop and Karen Gamble for a Spring Retreat at the magical Haramara Retreat in Sayulita, Nayarit, Mexico. Haramara means “Mother Sea” in the native Huichol Indian language. This retreat offers the atmosphere for you to feel your connection to the earth, to the sea, and to yourself and experience relaxation, renewal, and restoration.
At Haramara you will find yourself nestled in tropical jungle vegetation with vistas that soothe the soul. Local artisan-designed cabanas are electricity-free, inviting us into a deep connection with nature’s rhythms and our own subtle body. Beach access and a stunning infinity pool allow you to enjoy sun, water, and the tropical climate.

Take this opportunity to unplug and take your yoga practice to new depths. Come home to yourself in the special magic of Haramara.
