Return to Her: 6-Day Nervous System & Gut-Brain Healing Retreat for Women in Tulum
With Marieliz Velazquez
November 10 - 15, 2026
Your journey at Return to Her is a carefully guided progression designed to take you from high-stress “survival mode” into a state of deep, embodied trust.
The Daily Flow: Every day is anchored in one of our core pillars. You will begin with gentle morning mindfulness and somatic stretching to awaken the body without spiking cortisol. After a nourishing, gut-friendly brunch, we dive into our Core Workshops. These sessions range from uncovering the physical impacts of the Gut-Brain connection to mindset shifts around “Soft Life Money” and values-based boundaries. Afternoons are reserved for integration—whether that means resting by the pool, receiving 1:1 support, or simply enjoying the sounds of the jungle.
Nature as Medicine: We utilize the breathtaking environment of Tulum to facilitate your healing. You will experience a private excursion to a sacred Cenote for playful water healing and nervous system restoration. Evenings are dedicated to powerful release, featuring guided breathwork, a Fire Pit “Let GO” ritual, and sunset sound healing.
The Sacred Container: To ensure your nervous system can truly exhale, we establish a strict “Sacred Container.” This includes radical confidentiality, a supportive “no-fixing” boundary when holding space for your sisters, and a highly encouraged digital detox.
The Venue & Nourishment: Tucked away in the Mayan jungle, Kaaba Luum is a luxury eco-sanctuary built for restoration. All of your meals are crafted by a Private Chef, specifically designed to support digestion, reduce inflammation, and honor your hormonal rhythms.
By Day 6, during our final closing circle, you will not be the same woman who arrived. You will leave Tulum grounded, empowered, and deeply connected to your truest self.
