Costa Rica Winter 2022 Retreat

“Yoga & Nature: Pathway to the Sacred”
Saturday, February 26th - March 5th 2022

The tropical rainforest of Costa Rica is one of the most ecologically diverse and beautiful landscapes in the world.  Through masterfully led yoga, breathwork, and Forest Bathing you will experience the profound sacredness and vitality of this landscape as well as the wholeness, sacred, and vitality within you.  On this journey, your heart will expand and awaken to experience greater joy, inner peace, and freedom that you can incorporate into everyday life.

Join Wendy Swanson, yoga teacher, acupuncturist, nature lover and travel enthusiast, and Kathleen McIntyre, nature therapy and adventure guide, embodiment coach, forest ecologist, and educator, on an adventure in stunning Costa Rica. You can expect to be guided to align with the mystical rhythms of the ocean and the jungle. We will embody and practice the wisdom that is yoga and pranayama (breathwork). We will listen to the sacredness within and around us clearing our path to greater freedom, joy, health and peace.

Stunning Natural Costa Rica at the Bohdi Resort, Nosara

Wendy took students to the Bodhi Tree in 2019. “The resort was spectacular. We are less than a 10 minute, easy and safe walk, to the beach (which also happens to have some of the best surfing in the all the world). The resort is elegant yet with all the natural goodness of being literally in the jungle. The howler monkeys live in the tree tops along with some of the most exotic and beautiful birds I have ever seen. There is a salt water pool with plenty of comfortable lounge chairs around to relax, read or enjoy new found friends. It really is a lovely place, which is why I am returning!”

Food

Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included. The Bodhi Tree offers an array of hot, and refreshing cold soups; an excellent buffet of veggies and salads; organic chicken, fish and vegan options. Bodhi Tree can also cater to any palette as a personalized service to suit all your special dietary needs. Organic wine and artisanal beer are available for purchase with your dinner. You are also able to purchase fresh juice and light healthy snacks throughout the day.

About the Retreat

“Attending Wendy & Kathleen’s Fall In Love With Life retreat was exactly what I needed to reconnect with myself, nature, and my creativity! Highly recommend for anyone searching to energize and reawaken their awareness to the beauty of life and needing a safe place to share and let go.”

 

“Wonderful guidance of deeper inner heart & nature connections! Wendy & Kathleen very synced towards communicating openness of body, mind & spirit allowing oneself to truly let go of negative emotions that we sometimes hold onto unawaringly! The Nature meditations & mandala crystal healings rocked! I felt & still feel the spaciousness of lightness & healing these two Goddesses radiate so innately”

 

“Two loving, kind, knowledgeable individuals who will do everything possible to guide and help one grow. The whole experience was incredible beyond verbal description.”
