Dive deeply into the ancient sister sciences of yoga and ayurveda while in the presence of the majestic beauty of Costa Rica. Our seven-day immersion into the five elements will be hosted within a pristine eco-lodge, on the edge of a national forest, with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean. In addition, this location features vegetarian meals with locally-grown produce, ocean view cabins, and an outdoor yoga pavilion built on the principles of sacred geometry.
Each day will feature yoga, lectures, and workshops on one of the five elements: Air, Water, Ether, Fire, Earth. Course material will offer dietary, lifestyle, and other ayurvedic guidelines on how to balance the five elements (whether in excess or deficiency). Yoga, meditation, and other nurturing practices such as swimming, hiking, and dancing will be offered each day in alignment with balancing each of the elements, as well. Thai and ayurvedic bodywork treatments will also be available, upon request.
Our physical practices of yoga will be a combination of gentle vinyasa, alignment-based/therapeutic yoga, ayurvedic yoga therapy, restorative yoga, and yoga nidra. In accordance with the yogic path of selfless service, we will also be incorporating yet another important practice into our retreat – karma yoga – the act of achieving spiritual union through selfless service to others. Our karma yoga practice will bring us even closer to the five elements of the earthly realm as we spend a day together caring for rescued sea turtles on the Pacific Coast.
This retreat is open to both beginners and advanced practitioners of yoga and ayurveda. Continuing Education units will be available for both Yoga Alliance and National Ayurvedic Medical Association, upon request.
