Find Authentic Retreats in Uvita Costa Rica

"Every detail of this retreat was well thought out, from the food, to the location, to the medicinal therapeutic ceremonies. The connections I made and the work I was able to do was phenomenal. I felt as though I received years of therapy in only a few days. Jacqui and her team are brilliant and professional. This retreat truly and completely changed my life for the better. "

"I rate this place a 10 out of 10 - I got everything I needed and more, so much more. The retreat experience was perfect plus I got all the additional benefits as I intended when choosing to come to this type of work. I Feel more motivated now, appreciate my life and my connections in my life more, I feel calmer, like I am not a hurry to go anywhere. Used to be in a hurry to finish things quickly now I am wanting to do things slowly now. I also feel more confident. I told some secrets now that I didn’t tell to my girlfriend before. I am accepting myself now. I accepted some part of myself that I didn’t before. Slept better as well. Z-"

"Being new to this kind of experience, I was a little apprehensive- I immediately felt at ease when Jacqui greeted me the day I arrived. She is a grounded, loving, caring woman that is doing exactly what she is here to do. The word ‘Integrity’ is what comes to me with my interaction and experience with her and the retreat. I felt completely safe and held for this very vulnerable experience – it allowed me to let go into the places that I needed, to accomplish the deep work that we did together and in my journey. I feel blessed to have met her and that she is in my life! Overall, I can only say… wonderful and such a beautiful, nurturing setting. I have nothing to compare it to, but have a feeling this is in the top of this kind of experience! Thank you!"

"My experience with Jacqui was more than I expected. I came here feeling disconnected, guilty, angry, and placing blame on myself and others around me. Years of buildup had taken a toll on my mind, body, and soul. What I got was a profound shift in energy and feelings about who I am and the possibilities that will come. I never thought it would be possible for me to go as deep as I did. I was always afraid of what was underneath and lived a life of avoidance. Now, there’s a sense of personal pride for the work I have put into myself. I could not have accomplished that alone. Jacqui and her staff held me through the entire process. It was a truly authentic, heartfelt, and collective effort. Not to mention with the most beautiful scenery, sounds, food and energy around me at all times. I am optimistic about the shifts and lessons that will continue to unfold. I am full of gratitude. M.M."

"I had no idea I would get so much out of this course. I thought it was a simple how to for microdosing. It is that and so so much more. This course helped me see myself in a way that helped me see how and why I do what and do and the best part of the course was it also taught me what to do with this new information. I feel like I know who I really am because of this course. Oh and I am no longer taking anxiety medicine either. Run to sign up for this course. You will not regret it!"

"I highly recommend this place. Everything was just perfect. The care, the location, the sessions, the creativity. I came here with an intention in mind and I am leaving with eyes and heart wide open with what I discovered here. My experience here was so much more than I imagined. I am so grateful to have found Embracing Your Light. I felt at home, welcomed and cared for immediately. "

"If I could I would leave 10 stars!!!! I cannot put into words how amazing the 5 days were that my partner and I spent with Jacqui and her team – to say that we were treated like royalty would be an understatement! The food was some of the best that I have ever had, so fresh and nourishing it was like a reset from the inside out. The accommodation was by far the best that we stayed in during our entire 2 months of traveling around Costa Rica. From the moment we first connected with Jacqui there was an instant sense of “we have come to the right place.” Choosing to do a psychedelic experience is not one to be taken likely and after hours of research and several phone calls and video chats, we knew from the moment we found Jacqui that we had found someone we could trust and rely on. Her professionalism and caring nature made us feel completely at ease and because of her empathetic gentle ways, we were able to let go and surrender to the medicine. She was with us through the entire journey, before, during and after and to say that it was one of the best experiences we have ever had would not be saying enough. Thank you to the team at Embracing Your Light! You will always remain close to our hearts and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who wants to experience all that psychedelics have to offer in the BEST possible setting with the BEST possible support!"

"We can't imagine what our lives would be like if we hadn't found Jacqui and Embracing Your Light. After nearly a year of trying out different antidepressants, my husband was still depressed and not himself. He was numb to life. Microdosing brought him exactly what he needed, and helped him through a lot of past trauma. With the aid of Jacqui and microdosing, he is now off antidepressants and is remarkably happier. Healing is ongoing, and each microdose brings confidence, happiness, and clarity. We are believers in this medicine from nature and recommend Embracing Your Light to anyone and everyone experiencing mental health struggles. "

"I just thought this would be a simple "how to" microdose experience and it was so much more than that. This is an incredible experience that more people should be a part of. I feel lighter and clearer within my mind. I feel much less depressed and I am leaving with a better understanding of myself and what I need."

"This course has changed my life in a way I have been longing for. Jacqui's knowledge, understanding, and compassion make the course easy to address vulnerable and eye opening aspects of my life that helped me make necessary life changes easy. This course is a must when microdosing. I did some microdosing on my own before this course and I encourage anyone interested in microdosing to take this course along side your microdosing. It made all the difference for me. I encourage anyone looking for a deep soul connection to understanding yourself to take this course. "

"Highly recommend!! Jacqui is wonderful!!"

"In 8 weeks my life changed so much for the better! I was unable to make so many important changes that needed to be made for the last 10 years. It is fundamental. I am happier and everyone around me is or will be happier immediately or in the long run. I can't say enough good things about how Jacqui managed to trigger so many positive changes in my life. Thank you, Jacqui! You are the best!!!"
