Hey there,
It's me, Ember, here to bring that unexpected Spark to your life that you never saw coming!
This November 22nd through 29th, we're introducing something new: the Gratitude Gathering. It's an 8-day, 7-night intimate beachfront retreat at Bambuddha in Barra Vieja, just outside of Acapulco. Maybe you've been there before. I have and I'd tell you more, but honestly, some things you just have to experience for yourself. What I will say is that the care Vistara has poured into that place over the years... you feel it the moment you arrive. Vistara, Bearheart, Pyasa, and Paolo are holding the space, and Miranda Webb, Anarchapulco's beloved Anarchist Chef, will be there throughout the week leading aerial arts sessions and cooking a full Thanksgiving feast on the 26th.
A small intimate gathering.
Far from a conference or workshop, it's more like... coming home.
Slow mornings, grounding movement, time in nature, meaningful ceremonies, and genuine conversations with people you will actually want to be around.
For those who feel called, there will be offerings of Temazcal, traditional medicine ceremonies facilitated by trained professionals, one-on-one sessions with Bearheart and Pyasa, Trauma Release (TRE) sessions, kayaking, beach time, and honestly one of the most remarkable things we've come across, rebar bending with your throat. (Yes, really. You'll understand when you feel it.) Let’s not forget about the aerial arts sessions!
We created this because we know this community. We know many of you are craving a chance to find your way back to something essential. The Gratitude Gathering is our answer to that.

Early bird pricing is now open for a limited time:
- Shared room (solo, roommate assigned): $4,500
- Shared room (couple): $8,700
- Private room: $7,500 (this is the regular rate, no early bird rate available)
All pricing includes accommodations, meals, ceremonies, activities, and the full retreat experience.
Once you register, you'll receive an intake and preparation form that must be completed before arrival. This helps our team understand your background, intentions, and any health considerations so we can best prepare appropriately for your participation.

We know this will find the right people.
With love and gratitude,
