Day 1 — Tuesday, February 16: Arrival + Welcome Dinner

Participants arrive at Medellín José María Córdova International Airport — MDE and travel together to the farmhouse, or finca, in the beautiful mountains near Guatapé.

After arriving, guests enjoy a nourishing welcome dinner as we open the retreat container and begin connecting as a community.

Day 2 — Wednesday, February 17: Earth Day — Grounding + Connection

Our first full day is rooted in the element of Earth, inviting us to slow down, arrive fully, and create a foundation of safety, trust, consent, and meaningful connection.

We begin with a welcome workshop designed to establish group agreements and help everyone feel supported throughout the retreat.

Throughout the day, we connect with the Earth through a hands-on clay art experience, using our hands to create, explore, and express, and enjoy a sunset hike to a nearby overlook, grounding into the land and the beauty surrounding us.

Earth invites us to: ground, arrive, feel supported, and remember our connection to the land.

Day 3 — Thursday, February 18: Water Day — Flow + Play

Our second elemental day is guided by Water, inviting us to soften, flow, play, and move with what arises.

We discover lakes and waterfalls on a scenic boat excursion with traditional fiambre lunch, and enjoy paddleboarding, swimming, relaxing by the water, or simply taking in the landscape.

Water invites us to: flow, feel, release, play, and trust movement and change.

Day 4 — Friday, February 19: Air Day — Ix-Ik’ + Breath of Life

Ix-Ik’ means “breath of life,” making Air Day the heart of the retreat experience. This restorative day is centered on reconnecting with nature, the body, the breath, and our inner wisdom.

We start our day with optional sunrise yoga followed by a guided forest bathing experience.

We then gather for a breathwork journey facilitated by the plant medicine cacao — using the breath as a bridge between body, mind, spirit, and the natural world.

Air invites us to: breathe, create space, listen, receive, and reconnect with the life moving through us.

Day 5 — Saturday, February 20: Fire Day — Full Moon, Expression + Integration

Our final full day is guided by the element of Fire and takes place on the Full Moon, creating a powerful setting for expression, transformation, celebration, and integration.

We start our integration process with a reflective art workshop to honor what we have experienced, what we are ready to release, and what we choose to carry forward.

We then gather around the fire for ecstatic dance, inviting movement, joy, freedom, and expression.

Fire invites us to: transform, release, express, celebrate, and step forward with intention.

Day 6 — Sunday, February 21: Departure — Carrying It Home

This final morning offers an opportunity to gently reflect on the journey through Earth, Water, Air, and Fire and consider how we carry what we experienced back into our everyday lives.

Participants may choose from the included scheduled group transportation to begin the journey home or continuing to Guatapé or Medellín.
