POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Something happened last week and I’m still not over it..

👉🏽 The theme of this week was to Work Hard, Recover Harder. And we f*cking did. We also PLAYED HARD, HEALED HARD, LAUGHED HARD AND LOVED HARDER.

Badass hiking, jumping off waterfall cliffs, Temezcal ceremony, deep conversations, Vinyasa + Yin yoga and looong juicy meditations.. it was edgy, memorable, fun, and a week for the books 📚

👉🏽 But here’s what gets me 🥺 The unofficial theme of this retreat was (re)kindling relationships.

Whether it was a father and his grown son,

A mother and her teenage daughter,

Besties living on opposite coasts,

College roommates,

A couple spending their first week alone since having a child,

A couple just six months into their relationship — or a couple celebrating their 20 year anniversary.

This Retreat not only brought these pairs of individuals closer, but it also allowed each guest to rekindle their own relationship with him- or herself.

Through sitting in extended periods of silence and stillness, to new movement patterns..

To being with nature (literally sleeping amongst the treetops), and surrounded by a new culture + new friends.

Each guest experienced a new reality through their experience in El Salvador. And this new reality on Retreat week inevitably leaves them changed upon returning home.

The transformations here hit different.

Grateful to be witness to this life-changing work.

Our retreat family expanded by 25 + I can’t wait to see where we all meet up next 🌍
