“How do you describe a week long wellness retreat in Mexico that feels like in just three days it’s taken 5 years of stress off of your life? Magic. I feel like this photo perfectly captures everything Rancho La Puerta has been for me so far. A getaway. An escape. A portal into everything I’ve ever wanted out of wellness – amazing nourishing food, daily constant exercise, brilliant conversations with the kindest people, and unforgettable experiences. I can’t wait to share more about my week here but right now I’m going back to being off the grid. Besos de Mexico ”
What is Rancho La Puerta?
The Food at Rancho La Puerta
The Week at Rancho & How to Get There
Top five things to try while at Rancho La Puerta
1) The dance classes/something new
2) The Breakfast Hike
3) Bingo night
4) A massage
After some of the intense days that I had at Rancho La Puerta, a massage was a very welcome treat! The Hot Stone Massage I received was one of my best ever, and it was such an overall amazing spa experience.
5) A leisurely day
Lessons learned at Rancho
1) Life doesn’t need to be overplanned and over packed to be enjoyable.
2) In life; always try something new.
3) You can turn anything into a paradise or a prison.
4) Memories are a lot better when we are disconnected.
Rancho La Puerta has a few simple rules, one of them being, no phones at dinner or anywhere other than in your rooms or the lounge. That forced me to disconnect greatly, and for two days I didn’t even bring my phone with me. They provide you with a phone sleep bag which I also loved, because it felt really intentional to tuck my phone away in there. As such, I feel like the memories of the week are bright and vibrant. I spent more time taking photos on my camera than on my phone, and I feel like I was much more immersed. I can’t wait to go back, I think everyone deserves a week like this.

Is it just me…or is this the hottest summer yet? Okay, for many places this truly is. It seems that 100 degrees F is more and more of a norm these days which all I have to say to that is – PLEASE keep hydrated and wear your sunscreen!! I find myself wanting to fully enjoy the summer, especially now that it’s coming to an end, but also wanting all things cooling – Ice cold water, cold showers, air conditioning, and of course, all the frozen treats.
So, I wanted to share all my favourite JITK frozen treats because you DESERVE TO treat yo’ self! I love partaking in a delicious vegan frozen treat because I don’t get any weird side effects that I used to get from dairy, and I feel like I get to have way more! Mango ice cream anyone?

P.S. I know I just mentioned it, but dehydration is real in this heat! I actually got dehydrated once in Mexico and it look to me developing delusions, constant shivering and night terrors. Not cool (oh good grief – no pun intended!). It was a wake up call. I always wear my sunblock but on vacation I tend to forget my water. So bring a canister and always ensure it was water in it. It’ll remind you to keep sipping throughout the day. Enjoy friends!
