SURRENDER TO SERENITY
Awaken your senses in one of Costa Rica’s most serene and untouched landscapes. Nestled at the foot of the iconic Chirripó Mountain, the highest peak in the country, you’ll find a sanctuary of peace. Immerse yourself in the stunning beauty that surrounds you—lush tropical blooms, flowing rivers, and vibrant mountain peaks that touch the endless blue sky.
Let go and be inspired, surrounded by vibrant gardens and tranquil nature. Hike through Cloudbridge Reserve to the base of a breathtaking waterfall, then spend a day on the Pacific Coast, exploring the pristine beaches and warm waters of Ballena National Park, home to the famous Whale’s Tail. These are just a few of the unforgettable experiences awaiting you on this exclusive all women retreat.
Each day, you’ll engage in mindful movement, empowering sharing circles, periods of silence, reflective discussions, and creative activities with your extraordinary hosts, Traci Cote, founder of Mountain Heart Wellness, and Kate Ledoux, founder of Summit Counseling. Traci and Kate invite you to rejuvenate your body, mind, and heart through peaceful moments in nature and meaningful connections with like-minded women. If you’re looking to recharge and reconnect, this retreat is your perfect escape.
