Into the Jungle:

A Somatic Journey Through the Elements

February 10-15, 2026

Kaaba Luum
Tulum, Mexico

Lo Reconnect with nature, awaken your senses, and immerse yourself in the magic of Tulum.

Join me Into the Jungle for a transformational retreat where we’ll explore movement, mindfulness, and the elements—Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether—through a somatic lens. This immersive experience invites you to deepen your connection with yourself and the natural world, using the body as a gateway to healing, presence, and profound self-discovery.

Through movement, meditation, and nature-based rituals, we’ll move, feel, and explore in ways that unlock deep transformation. From sacred cenote swims and fire ceremonies, to grounding jungle walks, each day will offer a new opportunity to embody the elements and return home to yourself.

Our Sanctuary: Kaaba Luum, Tulum

Nestled in the lush jungle of Tulum, Kaaba Luum is a secluded oasis designed for deep connection, healing, and restoration. Surrounded by the raw beauty of nature, this eco-luxury retreat space invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and immerse yourself in the elements.

Here, we’ll practice yoga in an open-air shala, meditate under the canopy of the trees, and nourish our bodies with fresh, locally sourced meals. With its tranquil setting, natural swimming pool, and thoughtfully designed spaces, Kaaba Luum provides the perfect backdrop for deep transformation and self-discovery.

My Approach & Teaching Style

As a professionally trained yoga teacher with over 500 certification hours and six years of experience, I blend somatic movement, yoga, breathwork, and deep energetic awareness to guide students into a state of embodied presence.

My teaching is fluid yet intentional, intuitive yet structured—designed to help you feel more connected to your body, breath, and inner wisdom. Drawing from Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, and somatic practices, I create experiences that support both deep release and expansion.

  • “This retreat was everything I needed in my healing journey. Rachel’s energy alone was enough to make this retreat unforgettable, she is such a bright light in this world! Rachel created a safe and comforting environment allowing for deep reflection, relaxation and healing. I let go of things I didn’t even know I was holding onto! I laughed and cried and fell in love with ME!! I left this retreat levitating on life, I highly recommend Rachel’s retreat to anyone searching to find their authentic self or release feelings that are no longer serving you! It’s all about reconnecting to yourself and nature. This weekend was everything my mind, body and soul needed! I am already counting down the days until next year!"

  • “The weekend was a self-journey using the elements as a guide. Each day was a different experience of yoga, food, and activities that went with each element. Focusing on each element forced me to look at each element in a way I never had before. It had me stop taking it as something in the background as I went about my daily life. By stopping and looking it also had me look at my daily life. To stop going on autopilot, look at what is working and what is not working.”

    — Tina Fullam

  • “Rachel! As always with you, it was a magical experience. You did an amazing job of moving us through the elements - and wow Mother Nature was happy to do-create that perfect experience with you! Nature Goddess for real. This weekend was full of so many moments that felt like a warm hug! You do such a wonderful job of making each and every attendee feel seen and heard by you (and the group)… the ones you have known for years as well as those who are coming having never even met you! Your warmth, vulnerability and authenticity creates the perfect container for us to feel comfortable and get the most from the experience. I love co-creating magical experiences with you and cannot wait to share our gifts together more!”
