About this trip

This retreat will offer a nourishing opportunity to slow down and turn inwards through daily practice and the natural beauty of nature. We will explore what we are cultivating through daily practice and how these qualities can move with us into our day to day lives.

This retreat includes 2x daily practices (a combination of vinyasa and restorative yoga, pranayama and meditation) that will support you in the process of cultivating stillness and ease within.  Enjoy three beautiful meals per day, receive bodywork from some of the most amazing healers and fall asleep to the sound and smell of the ocean.

A Few Notes About Staying at Haramara

*You will fly into Puerto Vallarta (PVR). Check in is at 3pm on April 9 and Haramara is less than an hour from the airport. Shuttles will be provided for you (you will pay your driver in USD).


*Each cabana is private and secluded and has its own private bathroom with an outdoor shower, a flush toilet and hot and cold water. Each cabana is designed to be open air with no windows or screens. 


*There is no electricity in the cabanas. They are illuminated at night with oil lamps and candles. You will be unable to use any small electrical appliances like hair dryers, curling irons or razors. There is no outdoor lighting so you will need to bring a flashlight or a headlamp for use at night. There are electrical outlets in the dining room, pool terrace and yoga shalas for recharging electronic devices and batteries. It is the same voltage as the U.S. so no converter is needed. 


*There is cell phone reception at the highest point on the property. Your cell phone, including data service, may work in Mexico depending on your service provider and your plan. Please contact your service provider before you depart to make this determination. 

If you do bring a cell phone with you, please make sure that during your stay it is either turned off or to vibrate so as not to disturb others. If you make or receive calls, please do so away from the yoga shalas when in session, pool area and other guests so as not to be disruptive. 


*The water from the faucets is safe for showering and other necessities. There is clean, fresh, purified water provided in each cabana for drinking, brushing your teeth and cleaning your contacts and contact cases and in the dining room for drinking. The ice used at Haramara is also made from clean, fresh, purified water. I recommend bringing a portable water bottle for your stay.


*The majority of your costs are covered in your trip price, including your accommodation and meals. Cash and credit cards are accepted at Haramara for on-site purchases in the boutique, additional items from the restaurant, terrace, pool bar and spa. Transportation shuttles in Mexico,  spa services, staff gratuities, Covid tests and off-site excursions need to be paid for in cash (USD is fine).


*COVID protocols: I will continue to stay up to date on restrictions and requirements both for entering Mexico and returning to the US and other countries. To attend the retreat, I ask that you are able to show a negative Covid test within 48 hours of arriving at Haramara and emailing those results to me directly. Covid tests for return travel will be provided towards the end of the retreat (participants will pay for this in cash as a separate expense).

This day with Lauren was SUCH a welcome treat. Lauren is incredibly thoughtful in her programming and I could not think of a better, more delightful way to spend a day.

Incredible experience! Lauren has a beautiful way of guiding us through the journey where you are left feeling reinvigorated and deeply at ease.

What a wonderful and rejuvenating day at the Green Gulch Zen Center! Lauren's agenda and pace for the day were a perfect blend of sharing with community, yoga flows, tasty food and relaxing contemplative time on the hiking trail to Muir Beach. Quieting my mind and body, with only the sounds of Lauren's harmonium, chimes or beautiful voice passing through me, is always flat out sublime. Peace everybody, Jeff Ryan

Traveling to Portugal for 'Return to the Sacred' with Lauren, Leia, and Emma was the best decision I have ever made. Cocoon is a true paradise where the only thing more nourishing than the organic, farm to table meals was the yoga, meditation, and sound healing. Quiet mornings... Afternoons at the lake, or surfing in the ocean, hiking through canyons to boulder strewn swimming holes or along coastal trails to private beaches.. Three words: Beauty, Laughter, and Gratitude.

Thank you for these beautiful words! It wouldn’t have been the same without you!

What a magical day. The setting was both beautiful and peaceful. The practice location was secluded just enough to create easy and organic connections. As always, Lauren guided us through profound discussions and soulful yoga. The food was also both nourishing and delicious. Its worth mentioning that it was it was easy to fit this into my schedule since it was nearby and only a day long. Overall, the retreat exceeded my expectations and nourished mind, body and soul.
