About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

There is a version of you that feels fully alive...
She surfs, she breathes, she sleeps deeply and wakes up excited. She laughs with women who feel like sisters. She moves her body with joy instead of obligation. She is not running from anything, she is running toward everything!
High on Life is the week you give yourself to meet her!

Set in Nosara, Costa Rica, one of the most beautiful and energetically alive places on earth, this is a fully immersive 6-night retreat for women who are ready to reset, reconnect, and remember what it feels like to be truly, deeply alive.

What this retreat is:
This is not a passive vacation. It is an active, intentional week of transformation held in a beachfront villa steps from the ocean, surrounded by jungle, warmth, and a curated group of like-minded women.

Your days begin with sunrise yoga, breathwork, and meditation led by your host Lise, yoga teacher, ocean lover, and retreat facilitator with a gift for creating spaces where women feel safe, seen, and free.
Afternoons are spent in the ocean with guided surf sessions on the gentle, world-class waves of Playa Guiones.
Evenings close with soulful experiences: cacao ceremony, ecstatic dance, yin ritual, bonfire celebration, and deep connection with the women around you.
Every element of this week has been designed with one intention: to help you come home to yourself.

Who this is for:
This retreat is for you if you have been giving everything to everyone else and quietly running on empty. If you have been craving adventure but talking yourself out of it. If you have never surfed — or surfed a little — and feel the ocean calling you. If you are at a turning point and want to mark it with something meaningful. If you simply need a week that is entirely, unapologetically yours.
No surf experience necessary. No yoga experience necessary. Just a willingness to show up, be present, and say yes to yourself.

What you will take home:
Not just a tan and a camera roll full of beautiful memories — though you will have both! You will return home with a reset nervous system, a body that feels strong and free, new friendships that last far beyond the week, and a clarity about who you are and what you want that is hard to find anywhere else.
This is your invitation!!
