Our bigger vision is to restore land to its natural state, letting ecosystems regenerate and wildlife thrive with humans as full participants in this process. We are part of nature, and our well-being is inseparable from the well-being of the land, the animals, and all living systems.
At Yolihuacán, we remember that we are one and nurture a way of living in harmony with Earth as our inner essence.
We seek to remember that we are all one. Through conscious living, collaboration, and respect, we cultivate a way of life that works in harmony with the natural world and our inner essence.
Sanctuary
for Earth’s beings
“I believe we are all leaders, each shaping the world in our own way. In this place, we offer one of the many beautiful possibilities for life to thrive on Earth.” Aidan Aibeche, Founder
We strive to build a strong, thriving community that honors the well-being and wisdom of all beings—human, animal, and plant—as part of a coherent, interdependent, and expansive whole.
Through experiences that bridge ancestral wisdom with evolving practices, we invite people to reconnect with themselves, each other, and the land—cultivating awareness, inner growth, self-expression, and joy as pathways to a harmonious life rooted in respect and love for all beings.
We share tools and teachings that empower present and future generations to live in balance with all life.
OUR MISSION
Nurturing a place where
humans, animals, and
nature thrive together.
Our mission is to preserve and regenerate ecosystems with humans and animals as full participants, remembering that we too are part of the natural world and worthy of protection and renewal.
"As we grow and safeguard the land, our mission is to restore its natural harmony and support healthy ecosystems."

OUR STORY
Where it all started
Yolihuacán was born from the deep bond between Aidan, the human founder, and a leveret named Yoli. From the very first moments of their connection, a vision emerged: a sanctuary where all beings—human, animal, and plant—could thrive together.
What started as an unexpected journey without plans or funding has grown into a living sanctuary. Yoli, whose name comes from the Nahuatl root yolihua, meaning “to live” or “to come to life,” opened a space of presence, humility, and joy. Through caring for her, Aidan discovered a deeper level of attention and love for life itself.
The name Yolihuacán, “the place of life,” reflects the sanctuary’s intention: to honor life, provide a home for transformation, and cultivate a way of living that embodies care, presence, and interconnectedness. Today, every animal, every person, and every experience at Yolihuacán contributes to this ongoing journey—a testament to what is possible when humans live in harmony with nature and one another.
