The RE-TREAT

The RE-TREAT is a seven-night yoga retreat at Xinalani Retreat in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico, created by CorporateYogi for high-achievers, executives and seekers who rarely give themselves permission to stop. It is led by life coach and sound healer Kim Segal and master yogi Markandeya Rsi, and it blends vinyasa, hatha, yin and restorative yoga with crystal singing bowl sound healing, breathwork, life coaching circles and Vedic philosophy.

What to Expect

The week is built around a steady rhythm of structured practice and open afternoons. Mornings begin with coffee, tea, fruit and granola from 7:00 to 7:30 am, followed by yoga and meditation from 8:00 to 9:30 am. Morning classes draw on vinyasa, hatha or power vinyasa. Breakfast is served from 10:00 to 11:00 am.

From 11:30 am to 2:30 pm the time is yours. You might surf, snorkel at Los Arcos, kayak at sunrise, walk the shoreline, hike through the jungle to a hidden waterfall, visit the spa, read by the pool, or lie in a hammock above the beach. Lunch is at 2:30 pm. In the evening, yin yoga and crystal singing bowl sound healing run from 5:30 to 7:00 pm, with dinner from 7:30 to 8:30 pm. The evening sessions stay consistent across all seven days, and the retreat also includes breathwork sessions, life coaching circles and teachings from Vedic philosophy.

The organizers describe the week as more than a yoga vacation: a chance to slow down and return home with clearer direction and energy.
