Pura Vida Retreat

Nurturer’s Wellness Retreat

To Revitalize Your Spirit and Recharge Your Soul

Costa Rica | February 9 – 15, 2025

You can't pour from an empty cup.

Take time to refill your own well.

You deserve the nourishment your soul craves.

It’s time to drink as you pour.

Nurturing the Nurturer

As therapists, helpers, and healers, we spend so much of our time pouring into our clients, students, customers, families, friends, and communities…

We often forget that thriving is part of OUR journey.

To truly embody wellness means to cultivate energy and joy from within, so that we can be a visible example of what thriving looks like…showing others what is possible.

Through this retreat, we will engage in practices that will help us remember we are worthy of cultivating wellness from the inside out. And be held in a supportive community of like hearted nurturers who are ready to embody thriving wellness and authentic joy.

PURA VIDA RETREAT is for the wellness seeker:

  • who identifies as a helper and healer in their career or personal life, including therapists, health and wellness professionals, teachers, parents, caregivers, friends, and community leaders.

  • who is ready to prioritize their self-care and wellbeing.

  • who is tired of feeling burnt out and is wanting action steps to pour back into their cup.

  • who wants a space to fully show up for themselves in addition to others.

  • who is craving a community of like-hearted nurturers.

  • who wants to cultivate more wellness, thriving, and joy in their life.

Friends and partners are also welcome to join this transformative journey to invest in your own well-being!

The nurturer’s retreat is for all those who help and heal.
