YURA
Culture, care and reflection in Tulum
Tulum is the setting for YURA Earth’s intimate retreats and cultural immersions, created with Indigenous families, experienced facilitators and local partners. Plant medicine is among the stated practice themes, with guides Dua, Wãnu and ARIÊ named in connection with its programs. The emphasis is on thoughtful hosting and relationships that aim to honor living traditions, so each gathering is shaped by people and context as much as by personal reflection. Meals are vegetarian, with vegan options, and the retreat food rhythm includes a welcome dinner on arrival and a community brunch on departure. YURA is best approached as a hosted, retreat-specific experience rather than a drop-in meditation space. Programs are paid, with listed pricing starting at USD 2,222; confirm the dates, inclusions and lodging details for the retreat you have in mind.
