An Introduction to a Living Ceremony of Feminine Remembering Retreat
What happens when women gather not to fix themselves, but to remember who they already are?
The Temple of Remembrance is not a retreat built around performance, productivity, or self-improvement. It is a sacred feminine journey rooted in embodiment, ritual, and remembrance. Held in the living jungle of Mexico, this retreat invites women into a slower, deeper rhythm where the body becomes the doorway and memory lives beneath the surface of words.
Presented by Veronika Starr and hosted at Lunita Jungle Retreat, the Temple of Remembrance is a ceremonial immersion designed to reconnect women with their intuitive wisdom, ancestral memory, and embodied truth.
This is not a retreat you attend.
It is a space you enter.

What Is the Temple of Remembrance Retreat?
The Temple of Remembrance is a women-centered embodiment retreat that weaves ritual, movement, stillness, and feminine wisdom into a coherent ceremonial arc.
Rather than following a rigid schedule, the retreat unfolds as a living container, responding to the collective energy of the group and the guidance of the land. Practices are designed to support nervous system regulation, emotional safety, and deep somatic listening.
The work is guided by Veronika Starr, whose approach honors the feminine as cyclical, intuitive, and relational rather than linear or goal-driven.

Why the Mexican Jungle Is Essential to This Work
A retreat like Temple of Remembrance could not exist in just any location.
The jungle of the Riviera Maya offers more than beauty. It offers regulation, containment, and remembrance. Without urban noise, constant stimulation, or digital interruption, the nervous system naturally softens. The body feels safer. The inner world becomes audible again.
At Lunita Jungle Retreat, the land itself is considered part of the ceremonial field. Open-air spaces, natural architecture, and intentional simplicity support presence rather than distraction.
