With Diana Paschal


November 6-11, 2025
Verdad Nigaragua
Are you ready to feel more freedom and empowerment?! Ready to take a sacred pause in Paradise with other like-minded, conscious Women?
Join our Women’s Yoga and Somatic Embodiment Retreat. Somatics and Embodiment practices use the mind/body connection to deepen our inner connection and process challenging thoughts, physical sensations and emotions.
Using practices like Yoga and somatic movement we’ll support you with tuning into your needs and honing your emotional strength to let go of things that don’t serve you and allow for more expansiveness, peace and joy in your life. Somatic embodiment work encourages self-discovery and deepens our connection to our inner world. Our bodies and nervous systems hold a wealth of history, encompassing emotions, sensations, memories, and energy. Engaging in embodiment practices is an ongoing journey that can be both challenging and profoundly rewarding. As we cultivate presence in our bodily experiences, we often uncover new insights about who we are.
During the retreat, we’ll use a blend of Katonah Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga and somatic movement, to discern your blind spots, cultivate better movement patterns, and create more harmony inside and out.
Our Women’s retreat will inspire you to live with more clarity, confidence, freedom and JOY.
When you remove stagnation the body, and find movement that supports longevity and vitality, you begin to feel more innate Joy and see new opportunities for your life. You realize how much choice you truly have. I’ve been teaching these practices for over 10 years, and I can’t wait to support your journey!
What to expect:
- Revitalizing retreat for Women to reconnect with their inner radiance, wisdom, joy and power
- Daily Katonah Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga, Breathwork and Somatic Practices
- Eco-Luxury accommodations nestled in the jungle of Rivera Maya among ancient rock formations, natural cenotes and mangroves
- Discover the power of embodiment practices and tools that facilitate deep transformation
- Introspective practices to unlock deeper insights, reflection and inner wisdom for your life’s journey.
- Experiencing swimming in local fresh-water Cenotes, traditional Mayan rituals, Ruins and Temazcal ceremony
- Fresh, local organic cuisine that blends western favorites and traditional Mexican fare
- Deep connection with feminine energy, your soul essence, nature and spirit
- A nurturing experience filled with connection, restoration and a renewed sense of well-being
