Location: Baja Sur - Cabo, Mexico
Late summertime is probably one of our most favorite times of the year. For it is this very special season within a season where we get to ground our minds and bodies as we move from the vibrant, energy-packed summer to the slower, calmer autumn. In considering where to hold our next retreat we were immediately called South to the energies of freedom, intuition, unconditional belonging, kinship and the interdependence to all things.
As with all things FADEN, the elevated and highly curated sensory experience, your sovereign healing and our commitment to safety and expertise are paramount. This time we’ve gathered together some of the most prolific healers in their field to provide breathwork, custom acupuncture, body work, healing foods, art, the indigenous healing of cacao and Temazcal (sweat lodge) and of course the medicine work. With three distinct ceremonies of Holotropic Breath, plant medicine and Ketamine, the ability to grow and deepen in your trust of these experiences, self and the revelations that come are ripe for the taking.
Finally, we were deeply moved to learn of the “Mañana Spirit” that lives in this part of the world. “Manana” meaning “tomorrow” in Spanish is about embracing presence, joy, peace, and balance first. It’s the antithesis of busyness and doing for doing’s sake. It isn’t aloofness, laziness or lack of consideration, as it may seem to outsiders at first but rather, knowing when and how to use our inner resources—being thoughtful about how you spend your energy, a sort of natural and lived kind of mindfulness. We are so excited to embrace this energy as we weave it into our intentions of seasonal and geographical alignment as our offering to you.
Within all of us is a healing intelligence awaiting our arrival and we can’t wait to support you in tapping in…

There have been some concerns regarding the safety of travel to Mexico. The State Department's travel advisory warning level for Cabo San Lucas is set to one of the lowest, which is “exercise increased caution.” They indicate that the reason for this level is low crime rates. However, as with all things, consent is very important so we invite you to listen to your intuition when considering this experience.
