My Magical Escape to Mexico: Wellness, Wonder, and Waves of Serenity

Hola, amigos! I just returned from an unforgettable week in Mexico — a true sanctuary of luxury, relaxation, and rejuvenation. My home away from home was the stunning Casa Velas in Puerto Vallarta, and let me tell you — it’s nothing short of magical.

From the moment I arrived, I was embraced by the serene mountain-side vibes and the calming energy that permeates this beautiful coastal paradise. Casa Velas is a luxury resort that feels like your private oasis, with lush gardens, elegant pools, and a sense of peace that’s utterly contagious.

Poolside Bliss & Spa Indulgence

My days were filled with lazy afternoons poolside, soaking up the sunshine and sipping on refreshing juices but the real treat was at their award-winning ABJA spa, where I enjoyed a blissful massage and hydrotherapy session. It was pure heaven — the perfect way to unwind and melt away stress.

Culinary Delights & Community Vibes

And let’s talk about the food — absolutely phenomenal! From fresh seafood to local specialties, every meal was a celebration of flavors. The community at Casa Velas is also incredible; I loved connecting with the amazing group of women who shared in this wellness with me and sharing stories in such a warm, welcoming environment.

Beach Days & Sunset Moments

Of course, no trip to Puerto Vallarta is complete without a visit to the beach. I spent a dreamy afternoon with my amazing father at Tau Beach Club, listening to the waves and soaking up the sun. The vibe there is relaxed, chic, and perfect for unwinding.

Celebrating World Meditation Day — A Week of Wellness

One of the highlights of my trip was celebrating World Meditation Day. I started the morning with a gentle yoga session, followed by tea-making and a calming meditation. Later, the group and I immersed ourselves in a soothing sound bath on the beach, letting the vibrations wash over us. That evening, my father, group of women and I enjoyed a beautiful family-style dinner on the beach, culminating in a peaceful, bon-fire gathering under the stars. It was a night of connection, reflection, and pure magic.

Puerto Vallarta’s scenic beauty, with its majestic mountains and tranquil beaches, provided the perfect backdrop for this rejuvenating journey. It was a much-needed escape — a few days of rest, renewal, and serenity.

Can’t Wait to Return!

I highly recommend Puerto Vallarta and Casa Velas for anyone craving a luxurious, peaceful getaway. And guess what? I’m already counting down the days until I return this June for the Wellnessing Experience at the Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit, happening June 11th–14th! I’ll be leading a Pilates class and a Yoga Nidra meditation — I’d love for you to join me for a few days of movement, deep healing and fun in the sun. For those of you who love him, my dad will be returning in June with. me! Ping me for details!

Save the Date: My October Yoga Retreat at Palmaia House of AIA

And don’t forget — my own Yoga Retreat is happening October 8th–12th at the beautiful Palmaia House of AIA. We’ll be diving into daily yoga classes, back-bending, inversion, and flexibility workshops, along with sound baths and daily meditation. It’s shaping up to be an incredible group, and I’d love to see you there! Check out all the details on my retreat page and let’s make some magic together.

Until next time, keep shining and stay inspired! Whether in Mexico or at home, wellness is a journey — and I can’t wait to share more of mine with you.

Viva la vida y la paz! 🌊🌞🩷
