Abundance Retreat – Costa Rica 2020

2020 Abundance Retreat

Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica

This Costa Rican retreat centered on abundance! Beach, jungle, mountains, yoga, meditation, surfing, hiking, SUP, spa & wellness, self-reflection writing classes, clean eating, new friends, and individual time made for yourself! We stayed at AHKí, a wonderful retreat destination nestled amongst abundant green mountains, blue ocean waters, plentiful sunshine, and stellar surfing. This gem of a retreat was the perfect setting for everyone to unplug, unwind, and reconnect to their heart’s desires. Yoga, meditation, self-reflection, inspired teachings, time in nature, and clean eating. Joy and abundance was had!

Praise

“You pick the best places for retreats! Always some secluded gem that allows your practices to settle deep within. Your thought-provoking questions encouraged me to dig deep inside, think of others, and appreciate each individual for who they are. It gave me tools to think about what matters – peace, love, giving of yourself and asking when you have needs.” ~ Donna

“Jennie taught us that we are ONE with all good and must expand in the face of limitation.  She reminded us to give and that it’s okay to ask to receive.  There is abundance everywhere, at times it’s just hard to see. Sometimes giving in, giving away, giving thanks and forgiving will help clear our view so we can trust the flow.”

~ D. O.

“I had a truly wonderful time – from the asana, to the meditations, to connecting with a lovely group of humans who provided love, laughter, stories and support in abundance. As a retreat leader you provided a safe, welcoming, and balanced experience for all the different levels of yogis that came, perfectly in tune with the group energy levels and needs.” 

~ Thommy

“I loved every minute! Truly! Your “words of the day” – flow, trust, give, receive, and gratitude-  were super impactful. I’m going to continue carrying them with me and I’m going to incorporate more of your breathing exercises into my daily practices. What shifted in my awareness of abundance is that we are all deserving of abundance, it’s available every one of us. We just need to open our hearts to it. Every one of your retreats offers new experiences and they’re always a perfect amount of activity and relaxation.”

~ Robyn

“One of the big takeaways from this week was the antidote to the fourth abundance obstacle – expanding in the face of limitations.  I loved how we meshed as a group, close knit, down to earth, genuine connections.”

~ Mike

“I learned that I’m not a victim of circumstance and that I don’t have to resign myself with that mentality. There are possibilities, I just have to open myself to them. Too many times I’ve limited myself out of fatigue, confusion and frustration. I need to spend less time looking and more time seeing what is around and within me.”

~ Jenny

AHKí was built according to the ancient science of Vastu Shastra, “the yoga of space.” This unique place invokes peace, wellness, and harmony. It feels remote, but is only  minutes away from beaches, kayaking, horseback riding, nature hikes, and so much more.
