OUR HOME - ARCO ISIS SANCTUARY
Our time together will take place in the breathtaking highlands of Guatemala, the birthplace of Breath Body Earth and the beloved home of its founders.
​
Arco Isis Sanctuary rests high in the mountains, overlooking the mystical waters of Lake Atitlán and surrounded by majestic volcanoes that inspire awe and reverence.
​
This lush and tranquil sanctuary is a sacred space where we are free to sing, laugh, cry, dance, and celebrate in community, held lovingly by the land and the dedicated hearts of those who care for it.
​
Lake Atitlán also carries the profound presence of indigenous and ancestral wisdom, a powerful energy that is deeply felt throughout the sanctuary.
