Imagine yourself in one of the most beautiful and magical cities in all of Mexico (pictured above) where you get to relax, unwind, adventure, sight see and meet amazing people from all over the world. Guanajuato is a hidden gem, rich in history and culture. It is truly an artist’s haven, with endless galleries, theaters, shopping, music, and clothing... You'll feel like you're walking the streets of Spain or Italy. Lush green mountains surround the city where brightly painted buildings line cobblestone streets. It is truly breathtaking! You will certainly want to stay longer to explore what this city has to offer.

Here's what you will experience at your retreat…

1. Hands-on training in the kitchen and mastery of the nutritional protocols for reversing gut permeability (leaky gut).
2. Metabolic mastery: learn how to reverse metabolic dysfunction that can result in cancer, diabetes, autoimmunity, systemic inflammation, obesity, hypertension...
3. Soul transformation through mindful awareness practices, meditation, breath work, and heart-opening group activities.
4. Open cellular detoxification pathways through the activation of autophagy to maximize healing, and reduce inflammation. 
5. Master your body's unique metabolic language and learn to interpret its messages. 
6. Achieve a state of therapeutic nutritional ketosis for peak mental presence, physical performance and spiritual connection. 
7. Address emotional trauma which can block the flow of healing energy triggering the  stress responses.
8. Restore the gut microbiome and resolve intestinal permeability with the ketogenic diet/paleo-ketogenic diet.
9. Connect with your supportive soul tribe of like-minded people with a common goal.
10. Explore your inner truth in a safe and sacred space and discover a new version of yourself.

HERE'S WHAT WILL HAPPEN AT THE RETREAT...

GUT HEALING. You will begin the process of repairing and sealing your gut lining, reversing signs of leaky gut to ensure proper nutrient absorption, reverse toxic overload, and turn off autoimmune reactions. If we don't accomplish this first, all the best food and supplements will not make a difference in your health. This is a 100% paleo ketogenic gut healing protocol. Address intestinal permeability, support your immune function, and nourish your organs, brain, and nervous system with the Radical Gut Healing Protocol.

THERAPEUTIC NUTRITIONAL KETOSIS. Shift your metabolism to a state of fat burning and ketone production for maximum healing and repair, creating an environment within the body where disease cannot exist.

DETOXIFICATION. Detoxify your body by removing stored toxins, excess body fat, damaged mitochondria, and mutated DNA from your body through the activation of autophagy and mitophagy (a state of cellular repair). This is one of the primary benefits of therapeutic nutritional ketosis.

HANDS ON EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING. Experiential learning in the kitchen so you will master these cooking skills before you leave. You will be immersed in the preparation of everything you eat and participate in the cooking of all meals. You will learn the basic foundational practices of the gut-healing diet while transition ing into ketosis. 

RELAX AND UNWIND. Cultivate deep relaxation through mindfulness meditation practices. Counteract the stress responses so healing can take place. Experience the true power of deep heart connections, community and the removal of distractions. Focus only on your self and your healing process.

LEVERAGE THE POWER OF YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND. Facilitate healing in the physical body. Become your own placebo.

CONNECTION TO THE ELEMENTS (earth, air, sunlight, water). Drop into a state of relaxation and healing. Leverage the natural resources of nature as a primary restorative practice. Enjoy walking, yoga, sunbathing, tai chi, and meditation daily. We will also have several excursions planned so you can explore this incredible city.

REMOVE INNER OBSTACLES.  Drop deeply into the space of your heart and explore the "energy body". We will explore anything that may be in the way of you getting the results that you desire in your life. This is a deeply transformational experience that has far-reaching benefits in the emotional, spiritual and physical realms. This retreat is a launchpad for radical change.

 
This is an invitation for you to embark on something just for yourself (and a friend or partner) that will leave you feeling completely transformed inside and out. I highly recommend you bring a guest along. This retreat is meant to be a pattern disruptor: a deep dive into making a massive shift in your mental and physical health. 

You will master the skills needed to heal your gut and metabolism from the ground up. This is a hands-on learning experience for those who desire to take control of their health and want to experience metabolic mastery so they can support others on their path to wellness. I am 100% committed to helping you get results! 

Metabolic dysfunction comes in many different forms. It may be digestive upset, fatigue, cancer, obesity, diabetes, sleep disturbance, hormone imbalances, autoimmunity, brain fog… Whatever it is for you, this retreat is a chance to change that around and bring your new knowledge home with you so you can live a vibrant life. I believe everyone deserves that. 

This retreat works so powerfully because it removes you from your patterned behaviors and takes you out of your comfort zone, places you in a supportive environment that fosters the embodiment of radical change. This is an initiation into a new lifestyle... Not a quick fix. This is a spiritual journey and your experience will take you exactly where you need to go, leaving you feeling renewed and refreshed.

Sometimes people come to my retreats because they just want to unwind, kick start their health or get their health back on track after slipping off the rails. They want to vacation and take time away from their daily grind and explore an exciting new place. If you are already a veteran keto/GAPS™ dieter or carnivore and want to pamper yourself, expand your knowledge base so you can better serve your clients/patients that's perfect. 

Everything at this retreat is optional. You can participate as much as you choose. There’s a lot of educational material presented and plenty of downtime, too, for hiking, shopping, napping, sunbathing, massage, journaling, yoga, and self-care.

If you are ready to positively transform your relationship with your body, mind, and spirit and leave renewed and rejuvenated, this retreat is for you. Change is not easy and you shouldn’t have to do it alone. This retreat offers you the support you need to be successful long-term and to take your mental and physical health to the next level. Knowing what to do differently is part of the process--but taking consistent action is often challenging because it involves changing your mind and looking at the underlying forces of your decision making and emotional responses to your environment. You will take home many tools from this retreat that you can use to support your health and the health of your clients.

You will have an opportunity to practice new ways of being, eating, thinking, and relating to your body's physiological and emotional response system. You will leave empowered, clear, and radically self-reliant when it comes to taking control of your health and helping others do the same.

Like learning a new language, full immersion is one of the fastest ways to get results. This retreat is limited to a small group and takes place in a gorgeous boutique hotel in the heart of the city of Guanajuato. Once you step off the airplane you will be picked up and taken directly to your destination (about a 40-minute drive from the airport in Leon). 

By taking part in this retreat, you will be given all of the tools you need to take control of your health and address the upstream causes of emotional discomfort and physical symptoms.

Imagine if your mind and body were fully able to relax and receive? My goal is to help you have a personal breakthrough where you are transformed from the inside out. I want you to leave feeling knowledgable, recharged, and clear about how to achieve optimal metabolic function.

I can't wait to meet you!

Sincerely,

Mary
