PRIVATE OR GROUP RETREAT · COSTA RICA
A retreat to guide your nervous system out of overdrive and into deep, restorative calm — somatic healing, nature, and nourishment in the Costa Rican jungle by the sea.
From Overdoing to Restoring
This retreat is designed to reset your nervous system through somatic practices, slowing down, deep time in nature, nourishing whole foods, and the unhurried rhythm of Costa Rica. Away from the push and the noise, your body finally has the space to soften, restore, and remember its natural state of calm.
Come as an individual or a couple, or gather your own small group. Four nights, fully held, fully inclusive.
A Sacred Metamorphosis
When we excavate what lives in the body, we unlock a gateway to transformation. We don't just release old patterns and woundings — we attune the nervous system by restoring safety within, and open ourselves to the full bounty of life.
Here we create a safe and resonant cocoon for your beautiful metamorphosis. We listen to your body's innate needs, your emotional landscape, and your soul's voice to craft a personalized voyage into your inner self — so you come to the other side empowered, aware, and more free.
We open each day with somatic practices — breathwork ceremonies, guided meditations, Taoist abdominal massage and Kriya Yoga — attuning the body to receive more flow and life force.
We gather around nourishing meals each day, prepared with love and care — tasting the abundance of flavors grown in the rich soil of Costa Rica.
The rest of the day blends specialized modalities — life coaching, Watsu flow therapy and Qi flow movement — alongside insights and practices in nervous system calibration, biohacking, Tantric living and authentic relating.
And we'll take you out to discover the lushness of Costa Rica — its pristine waterfalls and gorgeous ocean, just ten minutes from the sanctuary.

A Shared Transformation
"I came to this retreat to focus on reducing my anxiety after experiencing burnout from my job. With the support of somatic practices, breathwork, and the nurturing environment, I was able to significantly reduce my medication — under medical guidance — and now feel I may no longer need it.
Michael and Astara were incredibly attuned to my needs. They intuitively knew what would support my nervous system and offered gentle, effective healing options like Chi Nei Tsang that felt safe and nourishing throughout the process.
I left the retreat feeling calmer, more grounded, and at peace. The accommodations were beautiful, peaceful, and truly held me in a way that made deep healing possible. I’m so grateful."
Amy Lathew · Personal Retreat
"After this retreat, I feel somehow lighter. Weight has been lifted from my body, mind and soul. Blockages that must have been with me for decades are cleared. I feel like I could spend years with healers and therapists and never get these results."
