Awaken Costa Rica
Yoga Retreat
February 1-7th 2020
The Purpose
The purpose of this yoga retreat is to dive into the layers that make up your being and connect to and empower your innermost self. We first release physical and mental stress through yoga poses (asana) and meditation. Then we build on a deeper understanding of who we are. To do this you will explore different yogic practices such as pranayama (breathing techniques), philosophy, chanting, journaling & community. We introduce a week of offerings into one unique and memorable experience.
Each day of the retreat will be focused on a different layer of your being to develop an awareness of the interconnectedness of body, mind, and heart. Then offer a variety of yoga class styles, workshops, group activities & meditations for building your practice.
In the in-between time, you will discover local Costa Rican culture, and embark on adventures of land and sea. Experience surfing, cloud forest & sea turtle tours, zip-lining, horseback riding, & more. Time for introspection & relaxation is also encouraged.
If you need a break from your smart phone, and want to reconnect to nature while becoming awakened to your best life - this retreat is for you!
