A Journey to Inner Peace

As a family travel writer, I am always on the lookout for unique experiences that can offer a blend of relaxation and adventure. When I heard about the Private Wellness Package at Tierra Bomba’s Holistic Centre & Namaste Beach Club, I knew it was something I had to try. The idea of a day retreat dedicated to wellness, just a short boat ride from Cartagena, was too enticing to pass up.

Upon arrival, I was immediately struck by the serene beauty of the island. The Namaste Beach Club is nestled in a natural reserve, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation and the soothing sounds of the ocean. The atmosphere was calm and inviting, a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. As a mother of three, finding moments of tranquility can be a challenge, but this place seemed to promise just that.

The day began with a yoga session at 11:00 am, set against the backdrop of the ocean. The gentle sound of waves provided a natural soundtrack as we moved through the poses, guided by a skilled instructor. It was a wonderful way to start the day, allowing me to center myself and focus on the present moment. The yoga session was followed by a delicious, healthy lunch, featuring a variety of vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian options. The food was not only nourishing but also a delight to the senses, with vibrant colors and fresh flavors.

Embracing the Island’s Spirit

After lunch, I took some time to explore the island. The Namaste Beach Club is a blend of art and nature, with beautiful, photogenic spots at every turn. I found myself drawn to the beach, where I could relax in one of the comfortable huts, enjoying the view and the fresh sea breeze. It was a perfect opportunity to unwind and soak in the natural beauty of the surroundings.

At 3:00 pm, it was time for the meditation session, held under a magnificent tree that had been consecrated as a Temple of Gratitude. The meditation was guided by a MAMO from the Arhuaco tribe, who shared his wisdom and insights with us. It was a deeply moving experience, one that transported me to another world and helped me find a sense of inner peace. The combination of the tranquil setting and the MAMO’s guidance made it a truly unforgettable experience.

The afternoon continued with a relaxing massage, enhanced by aromatherapy. The skilled hands of the therapist worked wonders on my tired muscles, leaving me feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. It was a perfect complement to the meditation, helping to release any remaining tension and stress.

A Magical Conclusion

As the day drew to a close, we gathered for a fire and cacao ceremony, accompanied by live medicine music. This was the highlight of the day for me, a magical experience that brought everything together. The ceremony was a celebration of life and gratitude, a chance to reflect on the day’s experiences and integrate them into my being.

The staff at Namaste Beach Club were exceptional, providing attentive and friendly service throughout the day. Their dedication to creating a welcoming and peaceful environment was evident in every detail, from the beautifully maintained facilities to the thoughtfully curated activities.

In conclusion, the Private Wellness Package at Tierra Bomba’s Holistic Centre & Namaste Beach Club is a must-visit for anyone seeking a break from the stresses of daily life. Whether you’re traveling solo or with family, this retreat offers a unique opportunity to reconnect with yourself and nature. It’s a place where you can truly relax, recharge, and find the inner peace we all need to be our best selves.
