Details of this retreat

There comes a moment in a woman’s life when she feels something shift.
A moment when she realizes she can’t keep carrying everything the way she has been.
A moment when clarity and change start calling.

That moment is the turning point.

This five-day retreat is designed for women navigating life transitions who feel stretched thin, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. Women who are ready for steadiness, clarity, and a deeper sense of inner direction. Women who want more than coping. They want renewal.

In the stillness of the Costa Rican jungle, you’ll have the space to breathe again, settle your nervous system, listen inward, and reconnect with the strength and wisdom that have always been yours.

Why Women Choose This Retreat

Many of the women who join us share experiences like these:

• Feeling overwhelmed or emotionally reactive
• Snapping or shutting down during stressful moments
• Carrying responsibility for everyone else without space for themselves
• Navigating major shifts in identity, purpose, or direction
• Feeling lost behind the roles they’ve played for years
• Wanting calm, clarity, and emotional steadiness that lasts

This retreat weaves together psilocybin, breathwork, grounded integration, and the natural world to support women through the very real emotional and physical demands of transition.

What You’ll Experience

• Two psilocybin ceremonies guided with care, professionalism, and emotional safety
• One transformational breathwork journey designed to regulate your nervous system
• Integration sessions before and after ceremony
• Gentle morning practices including yoga and breath awareness
• Nature excursions and unstructured time for rest
• A private, quiet environment created for reflection and renewal
• Nourishing vegetarian meals prepared by our in-house chef

Every element of the experience is intentional. Spacious. Supportive. Grounded.
The goal is not intensity — it’s clarity and reconnection.

What You’ll Learn

• How to release emotional patterns and internal pressure
• How to meet stress without burning out or shutting down
• How to reconnect with your intuition, desires, and inner voice
• How to cultivate calm in your nervous system
• How to navigate change with confidence and steadiness
• How to feel more like yourself again

This isn’t about escaping life. It’s about meeting your life with new clarity and strength.

The Environment

This beautiful, loved property is perched in the hills above Lake Arenal surrounded by nature with cool breezes and peaceful mornings - comfortable, and intentionally simple.
Accommodations include private or shared rooms depending on preference, with air conditioning, a shared space, Wi-Fi, kitchen access, and housekeeping.

It’s quiet, surrounded by nature, and designed to help you settle, soften, and reconnect.

A Note on Psilocybin:

Psilocybin is a powerful tool, and it is not the right fit for everyone. Before joining either retreat, every participant goes through a thorough screening process to ensure this experience is appropriate, safe, and well-suited to where you are right now. This is not a gatekeeping exercise — it is an act of care. We want every person who walks through this experience to be genuinely ready for it.

To begin that conversation, we invite you to book a complimentary 20-minute discovery call. It's a relaxed, no-pressure conversation where you can ask questions, share a little about yourself, and together we'll get a sense of whether this is the right next step for you.

Powerful!
Embracing Your Light is not just a healing space — it’s a return to yourself. From the very first interaction, I felt seen, respected, and genuinely supported. There is a level of care, professionalism, and integrity here that is rare, especially in this kind of work. The guidance offered through Embracing Your Light is grounded, intentional, and deeply human. Nothing feels rushed or forced; instead, there is space to move at your own pace while still being gently guided toward clarity, healing, and personal truth. This work helped me reconnect with my inner wisdom, open my heart, and trust myself again. If you’re seeking real transformation — not surface-level inspiration, but lasting change — Embracing Your Light offers a place that is both safe and profoundly powerful.

Life-Changing
Jacqui has a rare gift. She sees straight through the noise and gently guides you back to what actually matters. Our work together helped me gain clarity related to my purpose, my patterns, and the choices I had been avoiding but needed to face. She is both compassionate and direct — never shaming, and never vague. I always felt supported, but also challenged in a way that helped me grow. I trusted her completely, which says a lot.

This wasn’t “feel-good coaching.” It was real, grounded transformation, and I’m living differently because of it. My entire life is different since working with Jacqui, in a way that feels like I am fully living now!

The Real Deal
I came to Embracing Your Light feeling cautious. I’ve explored personal growth spaces before and was honestly tired of big promises and vague language. I wasn’t looking to be “fixed” — I just wanted something real.
What I found instead was integrity, clarity, and a level of presence that immediately set this work apart. Nothing was pushed. There was no pressure to feel a certain way or have a particular experience. I felt respected as a whole human being, not treated like a project.

Over time, something subtle but powerful shifted. I gained perspective, softened toward myself, and began making decisions from a place of trust instead of fear. Embracing Your Light didn’t give me answers — it helped me remember my own. That, to me, is real healing.

Wisdom, Integrity, Care.
Working with Jacqui was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. Right from the very beginning, I felt deeply held — emotionally, energetically, and practically. Her presence is calm, confident, and incredibly attuned.
She didn’t rush the process or impose meaning; instead, she created a container where my truth emerged naturally. The preparation, the ceremony itself, and the integration afterward were all thoughtful and intentional. I left feeling clearer, softer, and more connected to myself than I had in years.

If you’re looking for someone who combines wisdom, integrity, and genuine care, Jacqui is that person.
