About this trip

Join us for a week of connection, self care and rejuvenation in the Sierra Madre Mountains in Jalisco, Mexico at Equilibrium Healing Resort! 

This resort is just an hour south of Puerto Vallarta in the mountains.

Are you ready for a complete digital detox? This location is completely off grid which means you get a break from EMF exposure that comes from the use of cell phones and computers.  Are you ready for the best nights sleep as a result of intentionally designed casitas lit by solar powered candle light instead of electricity? 

This week is about detoxing. The amazing food at Equilibrium is plant based. We will be enjoying meals filled with life force and vitality, intentionally picked by the chefs everyday at local farmers markets.

Amber and Colleen have done it again, an amazing trip planned with such care and detail! The yoga experience with Amber was phenomenal with sequencing to match the groups energy and needs as well as one on one time to explore aspects of our own practice. Colleen provided an excellent exploration of Ayurveda in the kitchen that was so complementary to the food provided at Equilibrium and one on one consultations to apply these to our own routines. The two of them have a gift of holding space and creating community. And Equilibrium will blow your mind and burst you wide open. Don’t miss the opportunity to retreat with these amazing women.

This was my first experience ever on retreat and I have to ask myself why I didn’t go sooner! Amber and Colleen host the most nurturing, well planned and inclusive experience. Being by the ocean was so healing and the food at Mar de Jade was amazing. I am so happy I went and will go again I am sure! Retreat with Amber and Colleen is not to be missed.

Equilibrium was so different and so amazing. Off the grid in terms of energy but top shelf in terms of meals. The jungle setting created peace and serenity. Amber and Colleen included daily yoga, Ayurvedic workshops, spa treatments and indigenous rituals with plenty of time for reflection, journaling, and reading. Plus the opportunity to interact with amazing women made this an unforgettable experience.

Amber and Colleen are phenomenal. If you're questioning whether or not to join one of their retreats, my wholehearted advice is to do it. You'll have an amazing time.

This retreat was everything I didn't know I needed and MORE! When I signed up for this retreat I knew it would be a relaxing time but I didn't realize just how healing it would be. Under the guidance and care of Colleen and Amber it became safe to receive all the healing that was available over the course of the week. The daily yoga, powerful insight and discussion around Ayurveda, the beautiful food and the magical nature of Mar de Jade itself combined to create a vortex of healing that I highly recommend. Amber and Colleen create a safe place to just receive with no guilt or conditions, it is so freeing. Do not hesitate to say yes to this opportunity, it will be what you are needing and more!
