Motivate® is Going to Mexico, again!!  Join us in Tulum, Mexico at Amansala, an award-winning eco-chic spa and resort.  Different room options at different price points. Please book yourself solo or with a friend!

Amansala is an all-inclusive resort in Tulum, Mexico. Amansala is one of the first resorts in Tulum and is known worldwide for its luxurious, eco-chic accommodations. We provide our guests with world-class yoga and fitness retreats, unforgettable spa services, and a bohemian beach vibe. We are a home away from home for those in the know, those who seek an authentic, warm, and welcoming experience rather than just a hotel stay.

Motivate® Retreats:  Mindful in Mexico is a retreat designed with relaxation and renewal first. If you want to just be present in this gorgeous place, this is for you. If you want to take it up a notch, opportunities for movement (barre, yoga, CBG...classes will change daily) will be built into each day. Amazing whole food-based meals enjoyed within a gorgeous setting on the Caribbean.  This is your retreat...take as much or as little from the itinerary as you want.

The food is next-level!!!  Each day will begin with a light breakfast and option for a group movement/meditation class. Brunch is a bit later in the morning. Optional activities will be organized and available separate from retreat cost as will spa services.  A mid-afternoon snack is provided to keep your energy up. A late afternoon movement/meditation opportunity will be available.  *Dinner follows the movement/meditation class (with exception of one off-premise group dinner at own cost).  The night will be what we make of it!

*One off-premise dinner in Tulum will be organized (not included in retreat cost).

Two group activities will be organized and part of the itinerary/retreat cost:

Mayan Clay Meditation

Mayan clay is a group detoxification clay wrap. The ceremony is held on the beach and it starts with a nice explanation of how the clay affects the body and pulls toxins out. After this introduction everyone will apply the clay to themselves while wearing bathing suits. Once everyone is covered in clay you are guided through a meditation, that inspires everyone to let go and let in. Finally everyone bathes in the beautiful Caribbean Sea.

Mayan Temazcal

An ancient steam bath with curative and therapeutic benefits. Believed to balance and detoxify the body mind and spirit. This ceremonial practice has been used as a ritual to let go of anything that is holding you back.  

Options for more activities are available and can be organized ahead of time:

*Tour to Tulum Ruins $75 USD pp

Enjoy a leisurely bike tour along the beach road to the magical Tulum Ruins. Upon arriving we will have a guided walk through the Ruins.

Your Host:

Meghan Kinsey is founder, owner, and health coach at Motivate.® Movement in Amesbury and Rowley, MA and North Hampton, NH and globally on Zoom.  At 50+ years old her extensive background as a classroom teacher, sales rep, community organizer, city councilor, childbirth educator, barre instructor, health coach and studio owner has coalesced into her role of Joy Teacher.

Meghan truly wakes up each day as joy-filled as possible. Her hair may be standing on end. Her breath may not be sweet. And her coffee may be part of the strategy to make her more joy-filled, but she really does aim to approach each day with significant optimism and aims to teach others about some of the health tools she employs to feel the same way.

When she is not parenting three sons who range from 18 to 22, or is not convincing her husband that the best choice he ever made was marrying her 24 years ago (wink-wink), she leads a team of fellow movement teachers with whom she could not be more proud. She loves each and every client that comes through her studio doors and Zoom screen. She is no where near perfect but loves trying new things to figure out if it makes her a better (more joyful, grateful, helpful, smarter) version of herself.  And she loves sharing it all even more!

Joy and Health go hand-in-hand and are such amazing gifts. To that end, it is her greatest joy to introduce people to the healthiest and most joyful versions of themself yet!  

Meghan is also a columnist and presents on various health-related topics. Her irreverent and cheeky delivery of health-related content keeps the audience amused while educating them on how to maximize their health and longevity.
