The Pause That Heals

Reset, Realign, Recharge, Reconnect

Welcome to YEZ! It’s time to give your brain and body permission to reset in a way that at home, you just can’t.
We invite you to join us on a transformative women’s retreat where you will emerge feeling
profoundly relaxed, beautifully realigned, and completely rejuvenated. We created these retreats with YOU in mind. You deserve this.

A 5-day intimate all-women immersive experience designed to help you take a break from everyday life. This space will allow you to break the cycle of self-neglect, hit pause on the mental load you are constantly carrying and shift your perspective on what self-care truly means — all the while surrounded by serene nature and supportive women who are on a similar journey.

Why Zihuantanejo?

Zihuatanejo’s name comes from the Nahuatl word Cihuatlan, meaning “land of women.” According to legend, this was once a sanctuary for priestesses, healers, and seekers — women who came to the sea to restore their strength. 

Protected by a goddess of the ocean, this land was blessed with abundance, marine life, and deep spiritual energy. The Sea Turtle — a symbol of grace, strength, and ancient wisdom — swim these waters.

Discover Zihua’s Magic

The shape of this land itself resembles this marine creature, who, like women, carries the world on its back. The sea turtle lives between worlds—land and sea—just as women move between the worlds of work and motherhood, duty and desire.

Here, women feel held — by the sea, the Earth, and the spirit of this land.
