spirit of oaxaca

Join us in Oaxaca, Mexico, deep into the mountains, where simplicity and connection to nature guide our journey. Here, we stay in rustic cabins, each heated by a wood fire and softly illuminated by candlelight, encouraging us to unplug, slow down, and embrace a quieter way of life.

Our meals, prepared by the local Zapotecan people, are rooted in ancient traditions and crafted from locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Each dish is slow-cooked over an open flame, infusing flavors with the warmth and depth of the region. These meals not only nourish the body but honor the land, drawing from the rich culinary heritage of the Zapotec community.

Days are spent exploring the breathtaking landscapes surrounding us. Guided hikes lead to hidden waterfalls and serene swimming holes, where we pause to breathe in the beauty of these untouched places. This immersion in nature deepens during our psilocybin mushroom ceremonies and a traditional Temazcal ritual, both offering transformative experiences for reflection and connection.

The experience also includes a three-day silent journey with yoga and meditation, inviting us to dive inward and cultivate inner peace. As we round out this experience, we study the powers of the elements—earth, water, fire, and air—learning to harness these energies and carry their wisdom back into our everyday lives.
