Start your year on an intentional journey
to connect to youR own inner wisdom

The answers we seek are already inside of us. But so often, we doubt. We outsource our
healing and validation, forgetting to connect within, first.


Here’s the thing: gurus and plants are no wiser than you - just more connected to Source.


Make 2025 the year you choose to deeply listen, truly hear and honour yourself fully.

Journey inwards and learn to embody the unique wisdom that only you have.

This overnight retreat experience will guide you.


NEXT DATE:

JAUARY 10th 2025, 6PM

Ruhani Wellness Centre, Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica

  • Bask in the sublime natural beauty
    of the Ruhani Wellness Centre in the
    Blue Zone region of Costa Rica.
    Inside the sacred sanctuary of the
    Maloka you’ll commune with like-
    hearted souls as we journey into
    ourselves. Enjoy healing rest under
    the peaceful night sky.

Be Held In Nature

  • Re-member yourself and come
    home to your body through
    thoughtfully guided yoga and
    movement sessions. Learn to
    move in sync with your own
    rhythms. Allow yourself to listen
    deeply and truly hear your body’s
    wisdom. Yoga mats are provided.

Gentle, Mindful Movement

  • Together, we’ll explore how can we
    experience more meaningful
    communication with the body. We’ll
    journey through simple yet powerful
    practices that invite inner safety and
    release, preparing us to deeply hear
    and trust. You’ll learn how to keep
    these practices alive all year long.
