Who is YHI?

YHI, Goddess of Light: the Legend

Many moons ago, the land was dark and silent. Nothing moved. It was the Time of the Dream. In a dark and deep cavern a beautiful young woman named YHI slept. Waking her gently, the Great Spirit whispered to her, "YHI.YHI.Get up." As YHI opened her eyes, she emitted beams of light that eliminated the darkness all across the land. She got up and began a long trip. As YHI walked, flowers sprouted up under her feet and she did not rest until everything was covered with a blanket of green. With her magical light she made the waters. Once the land was full of brilliance and light, YHI transformed herself into an enormous ball of fire.

Ix Chel Signature CollectionT

The Mayan moon goddess Ix Chel is the mystery and joy of feminine sensuality, mother of Earth and all life, patroness of the healing arts, weaving childbirth, and destiny. Ix Chel, Mayan moon goddess, sometimes called "Goddess of the Rainbow", carries an upside-down vessel in her hands which represents the nourishing gift of water, our most essential life-giving element. She wears a serpent on her head representing her transformation from winter to spring energy-shedding her winter skin in order to blossom anew in spring to a fresh stage in the lifecycle.

The Ix Chel Signature CollectionT spa rituals honor the goddess's values of renovation (CHAC), abundance (KAN), transformation (ZAC), and growth (YAX). The Ix Chel Signature Collection T includes glowing exfoliations, replenishing massages, detoxifying and healing wraps, hydrotherapies that incorporate organic herbs, as well as fruits, flowers and elements known for their ethno-botanical healing, nutritive, and sacred properties.

Make your selections based on the treatments that will enhance your senses, cleanse your skin, and soothe, comfort, and restore your physical, emotional and spiritual being.
