MIND, BODY & EARTH RETREAT: Rediscover, Renew & Revitalize Your Flow in Costa Rica with Ray
Your TourHero
Greetings beautiful souls! I am Raven, a wellness leader and instructor and multi-passionate creator! I love all things that involve fitness, dancing, healing, building connections and amplifying life! As a mother to one toddler and a bonus teenager, business owner, leader and wife- I know how easy it is for us to fall into a space of feeling unfulfilled, guilty, and battling between organizing life and reconnecting with self. The past 11 years I have dedicated my time and life to helping women rediscover their confidence, strength and power through fitness, dance and creating safe spaces for like minded women of all walks to connect in sisterhood. Over thousands of women I can proudly say I have personally cared for and spent time creating programs and being a resource for- and I know my work is truly just beginning.
I hope to share space, and shine light with you!

Details
Day 1
Head to the brilliant coasts of Uvita an tour your new home away from home
Costa Rica welcomes you with open arms! Today marks the start of your five-day wellness journey, and we'll begin with a transfer from the airport to our gorgeous retreat in Uvita. Home to awe-inspiring beaches and an undeniably tranquil atmosphere, Uvita will be the perfect backdrop for this foray into fitness, movement, nature, and introspection. Before we get to that, though, you can tour the property so that you can discover amenities like the yoga shala, a glittering pool, and more. Finally, we'll end the day with a group dinner where you'll begin bonding with your fellow travelers and discussing your goals for this transformative retreat.
Day 2
Kick off the trip with a day full of wellness activities
Rise with confidence into the perfect Uvita morning. As the sun peeks over the horizon and lights up the Costa Rican landscape, we'll attend our first yoga session of the trip. Mindful movement will invigorate and prepare us for the day. Following this, we'll grab breakfast and head to an activity that combines the practices of a cacao ceremony and a sound healing. Lunch will follow, a plant-based meal prepared with love and care by the on-site chefs. Evening will bring us a movement and flow class where we'll continue getting in touch with our bodies and connecting with higher frequencies. Finally, we'll end the day with an I Am Celebration that will teach you to take ownership and pride in all the things that make you uniquely yourself.
Day 3
Find energy with morning yoga, engage your physical side in a workout class, and explore nature on an optional ziplining and hiking excursion
Good morning! Today we are once again focusing on forging a sacred bond with our physical and mental systems via yoga sessions and fitness classes. Where today differs from yesterday, though, is with an afternoon opportunity for adventure in the natural world. Following our workout, we'll be able to go into the jungle for a ziplining and hiking activity that will have your heart racing as you explore the landscape. (This activity is not included in the base price; please see the add-ons section for more info.) Whether you opt to do this activity or not, we'll wrap up this invigorating day back at the resort sharing a delicious, thoughtfully-prepared dinner.
Day 4
Spend your final full day in Costa Rica with unique adventures — from horseback riding to a waterfall visit
Get up and get ready for another fantastic day! Indulge in a delicious breakfast before you are transported to Rancho la Merced for a horseback riding adventure that will be filled with joy. Enjoy the company of your new four-legged friend! (This activity is not included in the base price; please see the add-ons section for more info.) After the ride, you'll be taken back to Synergy in time for lunch and to refresh yourself. After some free time or moments to indulge in a massage, we'll depart for the Uvita Waterfall, where a session of drumming (led by Catherine) will commence. This gives us the chance to connect with Mother Nature and enjoy the incredible atmosphere. (This activity is not included in the base price; please see the add-ons section for more info.) We will have dinner after.
Day 5
Say goodbye to Costa Rica and get ready to bring your journey back home with you
It's already day 5 of our retreat, and that means that it's time to head home. Over the course of this trip, you've gained confidence in yourself, explored the unbeatable landscapes of Uvita, and gained important tools to empower yourself and manifest your own intentions. With these tools, your journey doesn't end here; you'll be able to continue your personal progress long after you've returned home. We'll share one last breakfast as a group before parting ways and heading to the airport. Safe travels!
