Planning The Mexico Trip

3 weeks in Mexico was the plan, a week with a fellow traveler who is a guide in South America, meet some digital nomads for dinner and some talking in Tulumn and then travel alone further in Yucatán. So think crazy and look for meditation and yoga retreats in Yucatan, Mexico. I found one in Rio Largatos, a small fishing village. I wanted to avoid all the tourist area during the holidays for at least a few days, so it sounded good.

Yoga & Meditation In Remote Area

So continue reading: Astanga yoga, laughing yoga, meditation, and fire ceremony. Didn’t sound bad, yoga and meditation fine that works well. Laughing yoga, some doubts and fire ceremony sounded interesting. I book after checking of they really exist with the yoga travel website! The time had come, three local buses further, half a day traveling between Mexicans alone was tiring but worth it.

 Fish Al Diablo

The introduction (nice people), the first yoga and meditation went well. I even survived laughing yoga as an introvert. It went wrong for dinner. Everyone who reads my blog or knows me, knows that rice is one of the few things that I don’t eat. And I really do NOT eat. I asked when ordering to replace the rice for French fries. The yoga instructor asked the same. I was very hungry, I was already looking forward to my fish al diablo (very spicy fish)!

My Horror Plate

To my horror, the rice was placed in the middle of the plate next to five pathetic fries, some vegetables and my fish. But it was surprising that the yoga instructor only got French fries and no rice. How she well and I not!

To Bed Hungry

I ate everything far from the rice, which meant going to bed hungry! ;-( I know I can’t call it hunger, by Western society standards) … Next morning on a banana and tea laugh yoga and meditation. Fortunately the shakes came, delicious shakes before I start the work out with Astanga yoga. Famished, I then started my hotcakes for breakfast after the yoga. Throughout the weekend I was no longer hungry by all the activities with the three meals a day. Lesson of the day make sure to bring snacks to such a retreat even though all meals are included!
