About this trip

This family-friendly week-long retreat with Rachel Rajput and Lael Humphries will be at Mar De Jade, a magical yoga and meditation retreat center on the Pacific coast village of Chacala, Mexico. Here we’ll spend 8 days and 7 nights deepening our yoga practice and enjoying a digital detox. Unwind in paradise with twice-daily offerings of yoga...feast on healthy and organic farm-to-table buffet meals, take a jungle hike, detoxify in an Aztec Sweat Lodge ceremony, enjoy pampering spa treatments, and much more. Swim in one of the several inviting pools, or take a dip in the ocean waters...enjoy a long walk on the beach into town...simply relax in a hammock overlooking the sea. We will also have an opportunity to visit local children at the nonprofit school run by Mar De Jade and tour their organic farm, and enjoy Stand Up Paddleboarding!

The Pacific coast is beautiful. The resort, Mar de Jade, is lovely and admirable for its support for guests, staff and the community. The yoga was excellent, serious and challenging. All of the participants in our yoga retreat were friendly, and the leadership of Malka and Rachel was excellent.

Everything about this vacation was wonderful and thoughtfully planned. The excursions were all optional and well-priced. There was plenty of downtime and Mar de Jade is beautifully situated right on the beach so you can enjoy the sound of the waves no matter where you are on the property. The twice daily yoga sessions were amazing and just the right amount of challenging flow for the morning session and restorative postures in the evening. Malka and Rachel thought of everything and their positivity is infectious! They have attracted a beautiful and soulful community around them and I always know I’m in good hands on their trips. I’m already looking forward to Thailand next year!

This was an amazing experience! Rachel and Malka were wonderful guides through both power and restorative yoga classes, creating a community within our group in just a week. The location at Mar de Jade was beautiful and comfortable, with delicious food and friendly staff. I'm looking forward to another trip with this group in the future!

Rachel and Malka have attracted the most beautiful community for these events. Everyone involved brings their best selves to provide support, music, and comfort to everyone. Thanks to the guardian angels, Anthony and Miriam for anticipating every need, to Malka, Adam and Ege for their inspiring music, to Amy for the nourishing meals, and to Rachel for organizing. Truly a transformative experience 🙏🏼
