Many of us are slowly waking up to the realization that we have cultivated frenetic and busy lives which keep us in constant motion from the moment we wake up until we collapse into bed, exhausted and depleted at the end of the day. Our bodies run on automatic pilot while our minds are busy processing an endless stream of to-do lists, anxious thoughts or strategizing an escape plan! We have increasingly placed more value on doing and in the process have forgotten the value of simply being. What if there was a different way to be in the world?
There is a beauty that begins to form when we live life with more mindfulness and presence. In this retreat we will share simple tools designed to help you reconnect to a happier and more resilient way of being. We will explore practices such as meditation and mindfulness, breath awareness, movement and sound healing. All will benefit from the practices, whether you are an experienced meditator or a beginner. We hope you will join us in the lush, green Costa Rican mountains for meditation and mindfulness practice. I think you will find that Costa Rica is a nourishing place to restore and connect with your true self. It is truly one of the most beautiful places on the planet!
