Sunflower Retreats

Here you can experience a healthy and fulfilling connection with nature. The jungle has a healing and centering energy force which affords practitioners an unforgettable, deep level of communion with mother nature while they practice yoga each day.

It was such a pleasure to meet you and your family too in Costa Rica. Thank you so much for such an amazing experience. I can't recommend your retreat highly enough. I came home feeling completely rejuvenated, relaxed and revitalised. A week of one-on-one yoga and fabulous luxurious treatments in the jungle was just what I needed. Definitely a life changing experience, I have already signed up to a massage therapy course starting in January and a reflexology course in London starting in August. I feel so positive and motivated and have already started enjoying the benefits of feeling rebalanced and re-energised from my fabulous stay. Thank you again for everything and for making my stay so fantastic. I really was made to feel very pampered and special and very well looked after.

The most memorable and exciting part of the holiday were the yoga sessions on the covered jungle shala platform, with the bird songs and howler monkeys talking to each other, and the hummingbirds flitting about, wind in the trees, leaves falling on the metal roof. Lucy led us in traditional yoga postures and flows, and guided imagery yoga Nidra experiences each morning and one evening. Some tips I would give other travellers booking this holiday - try the stand up paddle board lessons in Mal Pais with Andy, and any of several restaurants there, or the Thai takeout delivered by motorcycle to the jungle lodge. Bring your daughter! The lodge operates with a consciousness of reducing environmental impact and employs locals to guide hikes, and provide delicious breakfasts and some dinners with locally sourced fresh food. I would rate this holiday overall as excellent! Some wonderful memories, I would not hesitate to recommend it to a friend.
