Beach Retreat
November 9 - 14, Playa Negra, Costa Rica
With Hali Love & Sarah Ham
Hali Love & Sarah Ham, both loving moms of teens and unapologetically obsessed with yoga, curated this special experience just for you. Created as a soulful pause from the beautiful chaos of everyday life, this gathering is an invitation to relax, unwind, and reconnect with yourself and with nature in breathtaking Costa Rica. Think nourishing movement, deep exhales, meaningful connection, and yes… doing yoga with us in a place that reminds you how good it feels to simply be.
This retreat is for anyone craving a true reset. If you’re ready to relax and unwind, move your body with daily yoga, indulge in a luxurious 5-star spa day, and enjoy fun, feel-good group experiences, you’ll feel right at home here. Come as you are, leave feeling rested, recharged, and deeply taken care of.
"My retreat with Hali was life changing. My hope in going was to hit the "reset" button after a difficult marriage of 23 years and divorce which left me feeling like a hollow shell. Hali's coaching offered me a safe haven, and an opportunity to gain understanding and acceptance of the many events of my past that have molded my point of view of myself. I learned how my point of view and emotions can empower or limit me. How they also affect my interpretation of a situation, and my decision making abilities." Lori Banks Alberta Canada
