Tropical Tranquility — a women’s only retreat to rejuvenate and revitalize

Welcome to Costa Rica! It's a country of varied scenery: glittering beaches, green hills, and introspective jungles. Step off the plane to breathe in clean, fresh air before heading to your retreat center deep in the heart of La Fortuna. Here, you'll be given a chance to reconfigure your relationship with yourself as well as your own wellbeing. Under the guidance of Sara Beauchemin, you will reclaim your health and enter a new, more fulfilling life!

The schedule for today is relaxed to give you a chance to settle in and bond with your fellow retreat-goers. After a bit of free time, we'll have an intro and sharing circle where we can discuss our excitement and our intentions. A welcome dinner wraps up this first day in Costa Rica.

There is no better way to develop a thorough understanding of yourself than through yoga and meditation. Rise and begin heading down this path with a morning session of invigorating movement. We will strike different poses and stretch our bodies in a way that will powerfully awaken our mind-body connections.

The day will then open up to a hiking excursion, allowing you to explore the surroundings of the lodge, which is shrouded in the lush Costa Rican jungle. Cocooned in the sights and sounds of nature, this hike will build upon our sense of rejuvenation.

In the evening, we will come together for a meditation session involving yoga nidra, a type of yoga where you are lulled into a highly meditative state in which you float between consciousness and sleep. With all tension released, head to bed to rest up.

It's a beautiful day in La Fortuna, and Costa Rica lovingly invites you to awaken and experience the morning. After breakfast, we're headed off on a ziplining excursion to raise our adrenaline and connect with nature in a unique, exciting way! You'll sail through the forest canopy, feeling passion rise in your heart as you gaze down at the lush biome below. We'll return to the retreat afterwards for lunch before an evening meditation governed by the sacred vibrations of a sound bath and yoga. As the sunset paints the forest in vibrant colors, we'll share a dinner and retire.

Good morning! It's the last full day of the retreat, and we're going to spend our time as best we can. We'll begin with an energizing breakfast before departing the lodge for a horseback ride through the gentle landscapes of La Fortuna. After the ride, we'll visit La Fortuna and purchase souvenirs for us to take home as reminders of our wonderful time here in Costa Rica. Lunch and some free time lead into the evening where we will gather for a farewell dinner. In a sacred circle, we'll bring together our experiences from the past week and make plans for continued growth beyond the retreat. To end the night, we'll meditate on our journey and ready our bodies and minds for rest with restorative yoga.

After five sacred days in the jungles of Costa Rica, our retreat comes to a close today. Say goodbye to your newfound family and say thank you to La Fortuna before departing from the accommodation and catching a flight home. Thanks so much for joining us! Safe travels and be well.
