Yoga Retreat: Melting + Metaphor

Yoga offers timeless practices that invite us to know ourselves at the most essential level, to ground into this understanding and to live authentically from there. Simply put, we do this by melting away all the layers of tension in the body, mind and breath so our essence can shine forth, like sunlight pouring through a clean glass window.  This retreat will offer the practices and space that can invite the softening of the unnecessary holding we carry. During the week together, we will weave together asana (yoga poses), pranayama (breath-work), contemplation and meditation to explore the subtle layers of body, mind and breath. We will use the metaphors and archetypes of the yoga tradition to anchor our exploration.  We will be supported in this process by Costa Rica’s natural beauty in the biodiverse Osa Peninsula, filling our senses with the lush aliveness of this area.

Nereus Retreat Centre, our base for the retreat, is a beautiful and comfortable oasis. Our private location has a short jungle path to access the swimmable beach and a saltwater pool onsite.

Included in the pricing is accomodations, meals and daily morning and late afternoon yoga, breathwork and meditation sessions. One morning will be off for those who wish to book an half-day excursion to a local wildlife preserve. This and all other optional excursions are offered at an additional cost.
