About this trip

Join Julien Pell and Miki Ash for a 5 night transformational yoga retreat in Troncones, Mexico, where we will embrace the lively energy of the Spring season and discover your “inner bloom.”  That which lives inside of you, waiting and longing to be expressed.


We'll be staying at Lo Sereno, a private beachfront oasis located in the magical seaside village of Troncones, which boasts pristine unspoiled beaches and world-class surf. Troncones is nestled between the Sierra Madre mountains and the Mexican Riviera and is located just 35 minutes from Zihuatanejo Airport.

Enjoy yoga and movement practices 2x daily, where we will weave in juicy hands-on adjustments, breath work, energetic clearing practices, journaling, meditation, and Yoga Nidra that will nourish your soul and bring you back home to yourself.  You'll have afternoons to spend as you wish: exploring the local town (it’s very safe), lounging in a day bed by the pool or beach, getting a massage, horseback riding on the beach, taking a surf lesson, hiking or one of the endless other activities available.


We'll have fresh celery juice each morning to start the day and enjoy delicious, healthy Mexican-inspired meals using all locally-sourced ingredients. Evenings you can expect sunset bonfires, and one evening we will be offering a Temazcal experience (a traditional Mexican sweat lodge ceremony for purification of the soul, spirit and body).


This is your invitation to step out of routine and stimulation and immerse yourself in the pristine, exquisite, spacious, healing magic of this land and our intentional community. You will return back home nourished and fully in bloom!

Accommodations

Nestled in abundant greenery between the Sierra Madre mountains and the Pacific, Lo Sereno is a beach-front boutique hideaway located on a three-mile stretch of unspoiled beach with plentiful nearby surf.  The hotel features an infinity pool with comfy lounge chairs, and an open-air restaurant/bar.

The hotel is effortlessly chic and excels in the art of balance – it’s sophisticated yet relaxed, modernist yet comfortable. Clean contemporary lines and natural materials are mixed with elements of Mexican artistry and handcrafted accents.

All rooms feature a modern and contemporary architecture, including a walk out terrace with wooden sliding doors, and a glass encapsulated bathroom complete with a spa raindrop shower head and a private bathroom patio. Each room comes with complimentary WIFI, air conditioning, down-filled mattresses, and all of the tropical toiletries you will need.

Food

The retreat includes healthy and nourishing locally-sourced Mexican-inspired breakfasts, lunches, and dinners (with the exception one dinner out to explore). Meals will include local flavors and locally-sourced ingredients. Coffee, tea, and celery juice will be available each morning.


Please let us know any dietary restrictions you may have in advance.

The Bloom Retreat with Julien and Miki was transformative. The yoga, journaling and breathwork has had a profound and lasting impact on not only my practice but my life. The retreat was perfectly curated and far exceeded any preconceived expectations that I may have had. We stayed at a boutique hotel located on a pristine sandy beach. Because the hotel only had nine rooms we had the entire place to ourselves. The rooms were lovely (with comfortable beds) and the food was delicious and plentiful! For five days in Mexico, Julien and Miki created a warm and safe community for sharing and practicing. It was a magical experience! I can’t wait until they offer another retreat!
