Nestled in the serene beauty of Nosara, Costa Rica, Awakening the Lotus is a transformative yoga and spiritual retreat designed to guide you on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and deep inner peace. The renowned and luxurious Bodhi Tree is set against the backdrop of lush jungle, pristine beaches, and the soothing sounds of the Pacific Ocean. This retreat offers a sanctuary where you can reconnect with your true essence and awaken your soul’s potential.

 

 

Over the course of the retreat, you will immerse yourself in daily yoga practice, mindfulness meditation, and guided spiritual teachings that blend ancient wisdom with modern practices. Our thoughtfully curated retreat integrates the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of yoga, offering a holistic experience that rejuvenates both body and spirit. Whether you are a seasoned yogi or a beginner, Awakening the Lotus provides a nurturing environment where you can explore your practice at your own pace. In addition to daily yoga, you will engage in sound healing, breathwork, spiritual workshops, and group circles designed to foster community and personal growth.

 

 

Enjoy nourishing plant-based meals, rejuvenating spa treatments, and ample free time to relax by the beach, explore the surrounding nature, or simply bask in the tranquility of this tropical paradise. Each day is an opportunity to deepen your connection to yourself, to others, and to the natural world, with the aim of leaving the retreat feeling awakened, inspired, and more aligned with your highest purpose.
