Wellness for a Life Well-Lived

Writer: Carolyn McCarthyCarolyn McCarthy

I recently returned from a transformative wellness retreat at SHA Wellness Mexico in Cancun. While Cancun might not be the first destination that comes to mind for relaxation and detoxification, SHA provided the ideal setting to unplug, unwind, and refresh.


Located approximately 35 minutes north of the hotel zone, SHA Wellness focuses on achieving optimal health through an integrative approach. Their combination of healthy nutrition, natural and cutting-edge therapies, and advanced Western medicine creates a truly transformative experience.

 

Guests can choose from five health programs: Leader’s Performance, Recover & Energize, Advanced Longevity, Intensive Detox & Optimal Weight, and Detox & Optimal Weight. I chose the four-day Recover & Energize program.


First Day Agenda


From the moment I arrived, I was immersed in a world of wellness. My oceanfront deluxe room offered breathtaking views of the Caribbean, and my first day included a plant-based lunch, a deep tissue massage, and a hydrotherapy circuit.



I began the Recover & Energize program, which included comprehensive health assessments, personalized nutrition plans, and targeted treatments. I was prescribed one of three diets called the Biolight Diet. The portions were generous and included fish as well as dessert. Being treated to dessert felt indulgent, but they were all sugar and dairy-free.



 

My final days emphasized detoxification and wellness through natural therapies and energy health treatments. The organic, mostly plant-based meals were delicious and nourishing, and the teas and infusions were a delightful way to end each dining experience.  The SHA team's seamless communication and attention to detail were remarkable.



 

I left SHA with a deeper understanding of my body and mind's needs. The SHA method is not a quick fix; it’s rooted in education, which is why it is effective even when you return home. The experience was truly rejuvenating, and I'm already looking forward to returning.
