LAUGH, HEAL, PLAY!

Emerging from our years of shut down, quarantine and isolation with heightened awareness and a different perspective, we’ll join together to celebrate life, cleanse our bodies and spirits in the beauty of Costa Rica. We will focus on reigniting joy and lightening our spirits with laughter. Pura Vida Spa is largely open-air, with outside dining hall. Yoga rooms have multiple doors and with the warm weather can be open. Individual accommodations create a relaxing place for rest.

Our retreat will focus on laughter, play and being present with our lives. Asana classes use movement that explore that changes unhealthy patterns and shift our awareness towards strength, agility and balance.

Enjoy  7 nights to de-stress as you are gently guided through the ancient healing techniques of Ayurveda…cleansing and renewing on every level.  Nourish your body with a healthy cleanse, organic foods designed to rejuvenate digestion and rekindle your health.  Drift into deeper consciousness with daily meditation and yoga Nidra.  Discover the power of pausing, releasing and unveiling your essence, your true nature.

YOUR TYPICAL DAY

Picture yourself surrounded by the colors, warmth and beauty of lush Costa Rica.  Start your morning with a pranayama (breathing) and meditation class.  The first yoga class of the day will take you on a journey of movement that is both therapeutic and refreshing.  Enjoy a leisurely breakfast with fresh, organic foods.  After breakfast, the choice of how you spend the day is completely up to you!

You might decide to stroll through the adjacent coffee plantation, read a book or take time to journal. Perhaps a day excursion to zip-line through the jungle, explore hanging bridges or white water rafting will fulfill your desires.  It’s all about you!

Lunch brings more tasty options for healthy eating.  After lunch, find a hammock or recline by the pool, indulge in a spa or Ayurvedic body treatment.   Afternoons bring choices of workshops and wonderful yoga Nidra/restorative yoga.

Additionally, you’ll receive a cleanse booklet which outlines all of the daily self-care practices (dinacharya) that will support your body in a springtime cleanse.  Prior to the retreat, you’ll receive a list of Ayurvedic herbs and oils that you can bring with you to assist cleansing at all levels of your being.  Karen Quinn will be available to answer questions prior to the retreat about your personal dosha (constitution) and what will give you the most support on this cleansing journey.

COVID Precautions: The studios at Pura Vida are all open air with lots of space. Meals are also outside on the terraced dining area. Additional precautions will be taken to make your stay comfortable, safe and easeful.
