CULTIVATE JOY
A Wellness Retreat with Jaimee Ratliff, LeNaya Smith Crawford, & Lauren Williams
Placencia, Belize
February 3 - 8, 2022
Joy is our birthright. From the day we make our debut earthside, it is already within us. However, as we journey from infant to adulthood, we often lose sight of that very thing that’s so intrinsic to our being. This often results from past conditionings, traumas, negative thoughts and patterns.
Join us in the tropical paradise of Belize, for a 6 day, 5 night women’s wellness retreat experience led by Jaimee Ratliff, LeNaya Smith Crawford & Lauren Williams: a dynamic trio of spiritual changemakers, who’ll help you reawaken and cultivate even more joy in your life through soulful, immersive experiences for your complete well-being.
Together we’ll explore the healing modalities of yoga, meditation & mindfulness, breathwork and sound:bringing us back to our purest state of joy.
RETREAT LOCATION
Nestled south of Mexico, east of Guatemala and next to the Caribbean Sea, Belize is an untouched paradise with an abundance of wildlife – both on land and in the sea. From its time as a part of the Maya civilization to its role in the British Empire, Belize has a rich cultural heritage reflected in the diverse people who now call it home.
Our Resort is located on the beautiful Maya Beach in the Placencia Peninsula, a verdant, 18-mile long isthmus in southern Belize poised near the largest barrier reef in the western hemisphere and near the country’s extensive network of protected areas and parks. Each day you can watch the sun rise over the Caribbean and set over the Maya Mountains. Enjoy the on-site amenities; swim-up bar, spacious pool, restaurants, an overwater bar, marina, and more.
Guests are welcome to use the complementary scheduled transportation to Placencia village to take in the arts and crafts and enjoy its bars and restaurants.
For those seeking relaxation, calming beaches run the length of the peninsula. If you're looking to explore, the reef offers some of the best diving in the country or head inland to one of the many national parks and forest preserves. In between, in Placencia lagoon, you may even see a manatee.

On the journey, Lauren will invite you to become aware of and have compassion for the mental chatter. On the other side of disconnecting, from this chatter is true lasting Joy.
