BLUE SPIRIT – NOSARA, COSTA RICA

March 31, 2012 – April 7, 2012



On the breathtaking island of Costa Rica, we will take sanctuary from a culture that demands life at double time and the long, unforgiving winter... we will take a retreat INTO all that is beautiful, powerful, and nourishing within ourselves.

Connect more deeply with who you really are…

Please join us for a women-only week of YOGADHARMA in magnificent Costa Rica! This retreat will be a powerful blend of accessible and inspiring asana, guided meditation, dharmic explorations, contemplation and journaling to nourish and nurture our bodies, minds and hearts.

Each day will include two asana practices (including prana-rich Tibetan Heart Yoga practices, and alignment-based vinyasa inspired by wisdom from Hafiz to Mary Oliver to the Buddha,) two guided meditation sessions, plenty of time for enjoying our beach playground, stimulating conversation with like-minded women, healing and invigorating rest, and nutritious food that will rejuvenate, restore and sustain you.

We are thrilled to offer this incredible opportunity to harmonize our body, breath, mind, and heart as a way to access open-heartedness, bliss and compassion in our daily lives in the spectacular setting that is Blue Spirit.
Our personal studio for the duration of our stay is enveloped by the lush vegetation and earth that creates a magical place for us to reconnect with ourselves, each other, and will serve as a powerful reminder of the preciousness of our lives and our connection to nature.

Our retreat includes:

  • 7 days accommodations + 3 buffet meals at Blue Spirit
  • Twice daily two hour mixed level vinyasa practice.*
  • Twice daily mediation practice.*
  • Daily Dharma teachings + discussion.*
  • Free time for swimming in the warm island waters, soothing rest and relaxation, contemplation and journaling or whatever speaks to your inner needs and wishes.

*Arrival + departure days will allow for one practice.

Horseback riding and other specialty activities as well as massages, bodywork, facial treatments, nutritional counseling, and spiritual counseling are available upon request and are not included in the cost of our trip.

Rates for our seven days include all of the above with flights additional. It is recommended that flights arrive into Liberia airport Costa Rica; retreat prices vary from $1,300 - $1,750 depending on accommodations chosen.

We hope you can join us for this transformative week where we will cultivate joy, openheartedness, spaciousness, receptivity, mindfulness and the ability to rest in the present moment. Take a week to discover and explore your heart's longings and how you might manifest these desires while being nurtured and refreshed in body, mind, and spirit in this glorious oasis finding a bit of heaven right here on earth.
