LOVE NOTES FROM OUR PAST GUESTS 💖
“The Eat. Breathe. Nourish. Retreat was spectacular. It blew away all my expectations. I was able to truly dig in and embrace the intentions that I set during the workshops in Costa Rica and am holding on to those intentions after having returned home. I was able to shift my mind frame and rise to a new level of power within myself that continues to propel me forward in the most positive way (in terms of food and nutrition and my overall goals for myself in life). Sue and Lauren are amazing women and leaders! Every moment and experience was planned with purpose and intention. I only wish the retreat was twice as long!”
“Lauren and Sue welcome you to a week away from it all wanting you to return refreshed and restored ready to take on the world again. Whether you are seeking a week away from the stresses and strains of a crazy daily life, or the frantic busy pace of a modern work environment, or perhaps just want to learn more about natural cookery and find out what yoga is all about, then they are here to help you.
Sue will lead you in discovering your intentions and help you determine just how your path will lead you to their realizations with simple, informative, non threatening workshop discussions. Lauren will inspire you to create your own recipes from the bounty of local produce. She shares a fresh take on basic principles that will give you confidence to create your own dishes. Her specialty is vegan cooking using whole foods which are sure to please any palate.
Yogic meditation and practices in this beautiful and peaceful place help you accept your present limitations yet open you mind and body to endless possibilities. Lauren and Sue both introduce you to many different yogic styles and be challenged. As a beginner, and a much older participant, I marvelled at what the advanced people attained, and attempted as best I could to keep pace in the more strenuous power sessions. Couples yoga introduces a powerful aspect of trust in your own body and in your partners!
Built into the daily program was plenty of time to be reflective and enjoy the natural beauty of the jungle and beaches. Time also to explore a little with new found friends, go out to lunch in a local restaurant, try a Spa treatment, browse in the local stores and street stalls, but always gathering again to view the sunset down on the beach and appreciate the fullness of the day.
I took home with me a sense of fulfillment, an new found resolution to listen to my own mind and body, and a plan to realize my intention of the day. And a certain confidence in new found friends who shared this special week where Lauren and Sue’s radiant smiles lead us to ‘Eat, Breathe and be Nourished together.
Namasté. ”
“The Eat.Breathe.Nourish. retreat was more wonderful than I expected! While I was there I was able to unwind, do some helpful contemplating, and gain a better understanding of my wellness goals and how to reach them. I also found a really warm sense of connection with other women and an understanding that we’re all facing the same struggles in different ways. Coming back to “real life”, I’m realizing the benefits continue to wash over me as I interact with others and make choices that will impact my health.”
“These ladies ability to lead is remarkable. They gracefully and intentionally adapt to the needs of the group and are able to dig in to get to the heart of the matter in a tender and loving way. Their wisdom and thoughtfulness is evident in everything we did. Sue is a wonderful yoga teacher and remarkable workshop leader. Her heart-centered approach allows woman the safe container to be vulnerable and open up in ways that can accelerate growth. All of our needs are met so we can focus on our intentions and relax into the experience. This retreat is always life-changing for me. I am a more balanced and thoughtful person because of them”
“The facilitators truly knows how to host a first-class retreat. I’ve been on many retreats, and none of them come close to the level of service, kindness, caring and compassion these beautiful professionals have for their guests. Every detail is taken care of. All you need to do is show up, physically, spiritually and mentally.”
“I am blown away by this retreat. The facilitators brought a really unique flavor, and it created a really juicy retreat. Spending time with a small group was magic. I feel deeply connected to this group, after only 7 days. I’m reminded of the beauty of connecting and spending time with myself. I was blow away by the meals! I am leaving feeling grounded, nourished and full of joy. The balance between connection and me time was fabulous, and I will carry the feeling of this onward with me. Thank you thank you to each of you! I feel like I’m surfing the wave of bliss right into my next adventure. With love and gratitude.”
