Nervous System Reset

A deeply restorative retreat designed to bring the nervous system out of overdrive and back into calm, supported by somatic healing, nature, and nourishing food in the Costa Rican jungle by the sea.

From Overdoing to Restoring

Your body already knows how to rest — this experience is here to help it remember.

Created to support nervous system regulation, this retreat weaves together somatic practices, slower pacing, time in nature, whole-food nourishment, and the easy rhythm of Costa Rica. Far from pressure and constant stimulation, the body is given space to soften, settle, and return to its natural state of ease.

Guests may join as an individual, as a couple, or with a small private group. The experience lasts four nights and is fully held and all-inclusive.

A Sacred Metamorphosis

The Journey Within

By listening closely to what lives in the body, we create space for transformation. This is not only about releasing old patterns and stored pain, but also about restoring a felt sense of safety so the nervous system can regulate and life can be received more fully.

A supportive cocoon is created for this process, honoring the body’s needs, emotional landscape, and inner voice. The journey is shaped with care so you can emerge feeling more empowered, more aware, and more свобод? no. Let's correct. more free.

Mornings

Each day begins with somatic practices, including breathwork ceremonies, guided meditation, Taoist abdominal massage, and Kriya Yoga, helping the body open to greater flow and vitality.

Nourishment

Daily meals are prepared with love and care, offering fresh, abundant flavors grown in Costa Rica’s rich soil.

Afternoons

The afternoon program blends specialized modalities such as life coaching, Watsu flow therapy, and Qi flow movement, along with teachings and practices in nervous system calibration, biohacking, Tantric living, and authentic relating.

Excursions

Guests are also invited to explore the lush beauty of Costa Rica, including pristine waterfalls and the ocean, just ten minutes from the sanctuary.

A Shared Transformation

"I came to this retreat to focus on reducing my anxiety after experiencing burnout from my job. With the support of somatic practices, breathwork, and the nurturing environment, I was able to significantly reduce my medication — under medical guidance — and now feel I may no longer need it.

Michael and Astara were incredibly attuned to my needs. They intuitively knew what would support my nervous system and offered gentle, effective healing options like Chi Nei Tsang that felt safe and nourishing throughout the process.

I left the retreat feeling calmer, more grounded, and at peace. The accommodations were beautiful, peaceful, and truly held me in a way that made deep healing possible. I'm so grateful."

Amy Lathew · Personal Retreat

"After this retreat, I feel somehow lighter. Weight has been lifted from my body, mind and soul. Blockages that must have been with me for decades are cleared. I feel like I could spend years with healers and therapists and never get these results."
