There’s never been a better time to focus on booking wellness travel.
The North American Menopause Society projects that by the close of 2025, approximately 1.1 billion women globally will be in the midst of or have completed their menopausal transition. This demographic shift has sparked a surge in wellness tourism, with midlife and menopause-focused retreats emerging as a prominent trend in the health and wellness sector for 2025.
In addition, recent data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates that over 40 percent of U.S. adults are classified as obese, with similar rates across genders.
ZihFit, a private wellness retreat in Zihuatanejo, Mexico, with accommodations for only 16 guests, is offering a series of transformative experiences in 2025 that address these issues.

ZihFit offers two transformative retreats designed specifically for women in midlife: Nourish Your Soul: A Special Menopause Retreat and Ignite Your Fire: A Retreat for Women in Midlife. These 4-day programs provide a unique opportunity for women to embrace personal growth and reconnect with their inner selves.
Nourish Your Soul: A Special Menopause Retreat (April 23-27) is tailored to help women navigate the challenges of perimenopause and menopause. Participants will engage in workshops focusing on remembering and reclaiming their authentic selves, free from societal conditioning. The program guides women in creating actionable steps to live their wildest expression gracefully and confidently.

Both retreats offer a powerful blend of activities that foster personal growth and sisterhood. Participants will experience transformative workshops, Cacao and Temazcal ceremonies for spiritual connection, breathwork and meditation sessions, rejuvenating massages, invigorating sunrise yoga and nourishing organic, local and healthy meals.
These retreats are limited to 16 guests, ensuring an intimate and supportive environment where women can forge meaningful connections with like-minded individuals. ZihFit’s retreats stand apart by combining the wisdom of ancient Mexican traditions with modern wellness practices.
