~ Paul M.
Absolutely magical place to rejuvenate your mind and body and connect with nature.
“Kawoq Forest is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. The views of the lake, natural surroundings, and yoga facilities are all amazing. The classes were all so different, it was nice to be exposed to different styles of teaching and practicing. I felt so rested and rejuvenated after my three day retreat.
I would definitely recommend doing a personal retreat here or visiting for a class if you're in San Marcos and seeing the beautiful forest.”
~ Elizabeth
Amazing experience!
“I came back from Kawoq Forest feeling refreshed, realigned, and rejuvenated. I have a fresh perspective and feel very centered. My time at Kawoq Forest helped me to heal so much and I am feeling liberated. The people were warm and welcoming. The yoga classes were not too challenging but helped me to develop my skills immensely.
I enjoyed learning from different yoga teachers and styles, as well as the daily workshops offered, which were all very interesting (e.g. Temazcal Sauna Ceremony, Fire and Cacao Ceremonies, Tantra for Women, Womb Dance, Sound Baths, etc.)
The wellness sessions offered were also very wonderful, I did a reiki session and an energy healing massage. I loved that I had the ability to choose from local Mayan or Guatemalan providers as well as from foreigners. The staff were so kind, warm and welcoming. The food was delicious too! The experience was amazing and I will definitely be going back!”

Thai Massage
This modality of body work comes from Thailand. The practice infuses yoga postures, with light to medium pressure along the energetic sen lines, providing powerful energetic releases and deep relaxation.
Thai massage is a beautiful option for people who are looking for an entire body realignment, and an energetic recalibrating holistic body work experience.
Pinda Svedhana
This massage comes directly from Ayurveda, and utilizes specially formulated herbal bundles that are wrapped in cotton fabric, soaked in oil and are heated up and firmly poured onto the body to release tension, clear out toxins and assist in a lymphatic flush of the entire body.
This treatment is in conjunction with an Ayurvedic full body herbal oil massage, that is done after the body has been fully warmed up with the oil massage.
Nawales alignment reading
We are all born with an energy that guides us on the path of life. This nawal energy is accompanied by others that help balance and guide our journey and purposes.
This reading will support you in aligning yourself with each of them to acquire, with humility, the wisdom and power to make decisions needed to move forward with fullness.
TAROT READING
A tarot reading provides illumination and answers to questions, situations, and relationships where there is a need for further insight.
The cards communicate to the reader through signs, symbols and archetypes.
ayurvedic consultations
Ayurvedic Consultations are facilitated by Ayurvedic practitioners, with a deep understanding of the medicine of Ayurveda. In the consultations, the practitioner will assess your level of vitality and health, your unique composition.
This consultation is ideal for people who are looking to bring balance to their daily habits and lifestyle and bring themselves into greater harmony with life through daily rituals, diet and lifestyle enhancements to incorporate into one’s daily life.
Swedish/Deep Tissue
This massage is ideal for anyone who is looking for a firm pressure massage with oil, assisting in deep tissue release and aiding in detoxification of the entire body.
PLANT BATH
Ancient traditions recognize the healing potential of plants. A plant bath is a simple, yet profound experience. Plant baths are taken outside in nature. Local herbs and flowers are gathered and prepared in a bath. Each herb and flower has a specific medicinal property. The herbs and flowers are boiled over an open fire creating a pleasant smelling tea. We then dilute the boiling water with cool mountain river water till we have found the ideal temperature.
You will then take a small handheld bucket and pour the water over your head allowing the warmth to flow and cleanse the body. A plant bath is ideal for people who wish to connect deeper to the consciousness and energy medicine of plants.
private, personalized yoga
These sessions of yoga are tailored by our expert yoga teachers to suit the individual or group.
It is ideal for the person who wants to deepen their yoga practice by working in an intimate setting giving plenty of room for questions and providing greater insight to the yogic practices of asana, breathing techniques and the philosophy of yoga.
Ayurvedic Massage
Abhyanga is a full body massage with light to firm pressure combined with warm medicated herbal oil, specially formulated for your doshic composition.
The medicated oil deeply penetrates the tissues, delivering the medicinal properties of the herbs aiding in detoxification and restoring the body back to equilibrium. This modality may be done with or without the herbal bundle massage (Pinda Svedana).
PRIVATE MAYAN CEREMONY
This ceremony consists of an initial meeting to talk about what you are looking for, need, or want on your life journey wherever you may be.
The meeting will serve to align your intention with the Sacred Fire, and then proceed with preparation, prayer, and, finally, reflection on the messages of the Sacred Fire.
REIKI HEALING
Reiki is a form of energy medicine where the practitioner channels pure universal healing energy through their body into the body of the receptive person. These sessions are ideal for those who may be feeling stuck mentally, physically and or emotionally.
The healing session will bring you into a state of equilibrium, where the body can come into a place of healing.
