4 Day Jungle Yoga and Wellness Retreat on the Caribbean Coast of Colombia

The Soulful Self retreat is a four-day, three-night experience hosted by Manuela, a 500-hour certified yoga teacher, and Katie, a facilitator with nine years of teaching experience. It's held at YAY, a sustainable eco-hotel and retreat center nestled in the jungle between Tayrona National Park and the entrance to the Lost City Trek, set on the banks of the Guachaca River in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. The program is built around a theme for each day, with morning Vinyasa, afternoon workshops, and evening yin and slow flow practices, all designed to meet you where you are, whether you're a beginner or advanced practitioner. What makes it stand out is the emphasis on giving you simple, practical tools for nervous system regulation and breathwork that you can use in everyday life, not just on the mat. The setting itself is transformative: you'll practice in an open-air shala, take dips in the river, and have time for quiet contemplation in the jungle. The retreat is not silent, but parts of it are—mornings begin in sacred silence, and there are periods of quiet during free time. It's a chance to step away from the noise of daily life, but the intention is to bring the calm back with you, not to escape.
