Guiding with Vivobarefoot: A Journey of Connection and Discovery

At Aire Libre, each journey is led by people who see beyond the trail. Our guides carry more than a map; they hold the key to connections that stretch from the landscape to the spirit. Their expertise doesn’t just open new paths—it deepens our promise to reconnect with ourselves and the natural world.

This year, our guides summit took them to Iztaccihuatl–Popocatepetl National Park. Equipped with their favorite shoes, they hiked, camped under vast skies, and set intentions to shape journeys that resonate on a soulful level. Here’s to another year of exploration, depth, and discovering what’s possible.

Go to the link in our profile to read more about their experience and how it shapes every retreat we offer.

Have you ever wanted to join one of our experiences but maybe felt a little intimidated by the idea of keeping up with the group?

Rest assured, all paces are welcome in every Aire Libre experience. Our journeys aren’t races; they’re about moving at your own rhythm and connecting with nature, yourself, and others. With relaxed, intentional pacing and regrouping points, no one is ever left behind!

And for 2025, we’re excited to introduce a series of slow-running experiences, designed for those who want to soak in every moment.

What’s your ideal pace when exploring new places?

Feeling like you’re caught in a loop of endless bad news? It’s easy to get pulled in, but taking a break can bring back some balance. Recognizing when it’s time to step away—from social feeds to screens—is a form of self-care we often overlook.

Consider this an invite to take a pause: step outside, go barefoot, listen to the world around you. Finding these small moments in nature or simply disconnecting from the cycle can ground you and restore a sense of calm. Let’s start with one small shift today. 🌿

Embrace the transience of life in Oaxaca.

Join us for a unique running retreat in Oaxaca during the Day of the Dead, where we celebrate the fleeting beauty of life. Inspired by the pre-Hispanic poetry of Nezahualcóyotl, we reflect on the impermanence of our earthly journey:

“Does one really live with root in the earth?
Nothing is forever on earth:
Only here for a little time.
Though it be of jade, it breaks,
Though it be of gold, it breaks,
Though it be plumage of quetzal, it is torn.
Not forever on earth:
Just a little here.”

Countdown to our New Zealand experience: Just days remain until we gather for an unforgettable journey from November 10 to 15, culminating in a powerful oro ātua (māori sound healing) session led by Aaron Kerehoma ( ).

Aaron, whose deep roots in te ao māori and traditional practices were nurtured through wānanga (learning), whānau (family) and whakapapa (heritage), brings an exceptional connection to the land and culture. He has crafted his own taonga pūoro (traditional māori instruments) each resonating with the oro (vibration and voice) of Aotearoa’s natural world.

In this closing session, Aaron will guide us through an immersive sound healing experience, with vibrations that evoke his connection to the sacred landscapes that shape his heritage. These tones, inspired by Taranaki maunga (mountain), Waingongoro awa (river), and Ōhawe moana (sea), will envelop us, grounding our journey in the spirit of New Zealand.

This closing experience will be a profound moment of connection, grounding us in the vibrant energy of Aotearoa and leaving us aligned with both nature and self as we conclude our time together.

Stay tuned for an exciting announcement—our 2025 dates are coming soon!

As we observe World Mental Health Day on October 10th, it serves as a moment to reflect on the importance of mental well-being. In an increasingly stressful world, reconnecting with nature is one of the most effective ways to support mental health.

Research has shown that spending time outdoors—whether it’s a walk in a park, gardening, or simply sitting in a natural space—can reduce stress, lower anxiety, and improve mood. Engaging with nature activates our body’s natural relaxation responses, helping to ease the pressures of modern life and fostering mental clarity.

Let today be a reminder to prioritize time in nature for the sake of our mental health, not just today but every day.
