Costa Rica
19-26th November 2025
A conscious retreat to rejuvenate mind & body with embodied explorations, sonic journeys & nervous system reset.
A return to you in nature's warm embrace.
Located on Costa Rica’s wild Pacific coastline, this retreat takes a modern approach to restoration - blending science-backed nervous system support with nature’s deep intelligence.
In collaboration with Errin Briscoe, this expertly-led experience is intentionally curated to bring you back to your body, your clarity and reconnect you with the natural rhythms of life.
“Wow!!! What an amazing adventure! I loved this trip and I deeply appreciated all elements” - Michelle, 2022 retreat attendee
This retreat is for anyone longing to shake off the weight of routine and rediscover the joy of simply being. It’s a space to laugh, explore, and let your true self shine, whether you’re chasing waves or marveling at the magic of the moment.
Azul Hotel & Retreat is tucked between wild jungle and open ocean - a landscape that holds you while you unwind. Every detail of this experience is considered: nourishing meals, intentional rest, movement, and daily practices that meet you exactly where you are.
You’ll leave not only restored, but reoriented.
What to expect:
Embodied Movement + Somatic Practices - Move into presence through functional movement, breathwork, and somatic exploration designed to ground, regulate, and reconnect.
Sonic Journeys - Guided sound experiences to recalibrate the nervous system, support emotional release, and access deep states of rest and integration.
Nature Immersion - Daily connection with the elements… barefoot walks, ocean swims, jungle trails, to reattune to natural pace and perspective.
Shared Rituals - To ignite curiosity, infuse joy & meaning into our collective experience.
Habit Design Sessions - Practical, science-informed tools to shift your patterns and integrate new rhythms, designed for real life, not just retreat.
The Activities
Yoga - Mixed Movement - Soundbaths - Breathwork - Guided Meditation - Drum & Journal - Creative Play - Habit Design - Temazcal & Immersion in local traditions - Wildlife Tour - Cacao Forest Visit & Ceremony …with more in the works!
