Come back to yourself in Costa Rica
5–7 days in Costa Rica to slow down, soften, and reconnect
What if you gave yourself five to seven days with nothing to fix, nowhere to rush, and no one to take care of but yourself?
Come retreat to the tropics and let the pace of the natural world remind your body what ease feels like.
Ocean air. Warm breezes. Bare feet and flip-flops. Tank tops and salty skin.
Sound bowls. Breathwork. Gentle nervous-system practices.
Beautiful things to look at. Space to journal, read, hike, surf—or simply be.


The best gift you could give yourself
Three nourishing meals a day.
Excursions if you want them.
Plenty of unstructured time.
And a nature preserve right next door.
There is no need to work hard at healing here.
Instead, we create the conditions for your nervous system to slow down, settle, and do what it was designed to do.
Imagine what becomes possible when you have several uninterrupted days of warmth, beauty, nourishment, nature, and spaciousness—with gentle guidance and plenty of time to simply be.
You make the retreat your own.
There is structure, but it’s flexible.
You can spend your days in whatever way feels right:
rest, read, journal, hike, surf, explore, nap, breathe, listen, laugh.
I’ll guide the deeper work.
The natural world gets to do what she does best.
And you get to step out of doing and into receiving.
The intention is to create an environment where you can reconnect with a sense of ease, safety, possibility, and abundance—and discover what becomes available when you aren't constantly pushing through.
The final two days are about integration.
We’ll slow things down even further and focus on how you can carry what you’ve experienced home with you.
Your retreat includes two online sessions after you return home, giving you additional support as you integrate and settle into your new rhythm.
Prefer a five-day retreat?
That option includes four additional sessions for the deeper integration when you are home, either online or in person in Birmingham, Alabama, so the work doesn’t have to end when you leave Costa Rica.
