Details of this retreat

Step into the lush embrace of the Costa Rican rainforest, where every detail invites you to soften, awaken, and remember yourself. Through yoga, Thai bodywork, Shibari playshops, cacao rituals, ocean swims, jungle adventures, candlelit evenings, nourishing cuisine, and deep connection, you'll peel away expectation and rediscover yourself beneath it all—radiant, magnetic, playful, and profoundly alive.

Into the Wild Within is a transformational retreat for those who are running on empty while holding it all together.  Set in the Costa Rican rainforest, overlooking the wild Caribbean Sea, this is where you step out of survival mode and back into your natural rhythm.

Each day is intentionally designed to strip away the static with yoga that meets you where you are, meditation that actually quiets the mind, breathwork that clears what you’ve been carrying, and time in nature that reminds your nervous system how to exhale again. Nourishing meals, stillness, movement, and space to simply be.

Whether you’re burned out, in transition, grieving, unraveling, or standing at a crossroads you can’t ignore anymore—this retreat holds space for the real you. The one underneath it all.

Here, the rainforest doesn’t ask you to be anything other than present. The wildness around you becomes a mirror for the wildness within you—the part you may have silenced, ignored, or forgotten.

Wake to the song of toucans and the scent of rain-kissed earth. Feel the warmth of the Caribbean sun on your skin as you step onto your mat, the jungle breathing all around you, the ocean shimmering beyond the trees.

This is a retreat for remembering what it feels like to inhabit your body.

To move without rushing. To breathe without effort. To eat slowly. To rest deeply. To laugh freely. To feel alive again.

Each day unfolds with intention, weaving together yoga, meditation, breathwork, Ayurvedic wisdom, Thai Yoga Bodywork, Shibari playshops, nourishing cuisine, and spacious moments of stillness. Every practice is an invitation to soften the places you’ve been holding, awaken the places that have gone quiet, and reconnect with the quiet intelligence that already lives within you.

Sink into the warmth of the hot tub beneath a canopy of stars. Walk barefoot through the rainforest. Float in the turquoise Caribbean Sea. Let the rhythm of the jungle become the rhythm of your own breath  

As the days pass, your nervous system begins to unwind. Your shoulders soften. Your breath deepens. Your senses awaken.

Evenings invite gentle ritual—candlelight, nourishing meals, meaningful conversation, cacao shared in community, yin yoga, music, and firelight beneath an endless tropical sky.

Into the Wild Within creates the conditions for genuine transformation—through presence, rhythm and deep embodiment.

Here, the rainforest is more than a backdrop. It becomes a teacher. The rhythm of the waves, the songs of the birds, the tropical rains, and the stillness beneath the canopy gently remind you of a pace of your own body  

The days are intentionally spacious. There is time to rest, to wander, to reflect, and to simply exist without needing to produce, perform, or achieve. Transformation is not forced here—it unfolds naturally.

What makes this experience especially unique is its integration. Yoga isn’t separate from meditation. Ayurveda isn’t separate from nutrition. Nature isn’t separate from healing. Everything is woven together into one immersive experience that nourishes body, mind, heart, and spirit.

You’ll be guided by someone who doesn’t simply teach these practices, but lives them—sharing decades of experience in yoga, Ayurveda, Thai Yoga Bodywork, mindfulness, and the natural history of Costa Rica. The retreat is enriched by an intimate knowledge of the rainforest, local culture, and the healing potential of this remarkable place.

 

Schedule

Each day is thoughtfully curated, balancing movement, rest, exploration, and meaningful connection. While every day has its own theme, the rhythm remains gentle enough to allow space for both transformation and deep exhale.

**6:30 AM | Morning Practice**

The day begins in silence as the rainforest awakens around you. Together we gather for yoga, breathwork, meditation, and reflective journaling—a practice designed to ground you before the world begins asking anything of you.

**8:00 AM | Nourishing Breakfast**

Fresh tropical fruit, wholesome local ingredients, and nourishing meals enjoyed overlooking the Caribbean, with time to linger over coffee and conversation.

**Morning & Early Afternoon**

Some days are devoted to exploring the Southern Caribbean—visiting beaches, waterfalls, or local villages. Other days invite spaciousness to rest, hike rainforest trails, swim, receive bodywork, journal, or simply relax in a hammock while the jungle works its quiet medicine. Group excursions are woven throughout the week while allowing plenty of personal time.

**1:00 PM | Lunch**

A vibrant midday meal brings everyone back together before another period of rest or exploration.

**Late Afternoon | Workshops & Rituals**

As the heat softens, we gather for experiences that deepen the journey. Depending on the day, this may include:

* Floral bathing rituals
* Self-applied Thai Yoga Bodywork
* Partner Thai Bodywork
* Yoga Nidra
* Shibari as a mindful embodiment practice
* Cacao rituals and ceremony

Each offering is designed to cultivate presence, trust, self-awareness, and nervous system regulation. Participation is always by invitation, never obligation.

**7:00 PM | Dinner**

Evenings begin with a nourishing dinner shared in community, where stories, laughter, and meaningful conversation naturally unfold.

**Evening Integration**

Some nights close with a fire ceremony beneath the stars. Others end in quiet reflection, allowing the sounds of the rainforest to become your evening soundtrack as your body settles into deep rest.

### The Rhythm

There is intention without rigidity.

Structure without pressure.

Community balanced with solitude.

Every element of the retreat is chosen to help you soften the nervous system, reconnect with your body, and remember what it feels like to live from your own natural rhythm. By the end of the week, many guests discover that the greatest transformation isn't found in a single workshop or ceremony—it's in remembering how to simply be.
