Costa Rica Chakra Awakening Retreat, June 8–15, 2025 — Reflection
Our recent retreat in beautiful Costa Rica was truly special — a soul-nourishing journey designed to align body, mind, and spirit through the wisdom of the chakras.
Each day began with yoga dedicated to balancing a specific chakra, weaving our intention into the day’s activities. After moving and breathing together at sunrise, we gathered for a healthy, delicious breakfast that fueled both our bodies and our hearts. Evenings brought us back to our mats for gentle yoga or meditation before sharing dinner, closing each day in sacred connection.
One highlight was our meaningful excursion to the Bribri Tribe, where we learned about traditional medicinal plants and experienced the magic of grinding our own cacao — a beautiful reminder of the healing gifts of the earth.
Another favorite moment was our peaceful kayak adventure, where we were blessed to spot sloths, a family of turtles, playful monkeys, and more — a living reminder of Costa Rica’s vibrant spirit.
Between our chakra practices, we danced hula under the sun, practiced Self-Care Yoga Massage, expressed our inner world in Art Medicine, and gathered in a sacred healing circle to share and listen deeply.
Throughout it all, our yogi family laughed together, supported each other, and created a safe, joyful space to grow and connect. I couldn’t have asked for a more loving, open-hearted group to share this experience with — and I carry this special time in my heart with so much gratitude.
Like we say in Hawaii, “Until we meet again.”
And in Costa Rica — “PURA VIDA.”
