We'll be gathering in sacred places within Costa Rica; in the jungle, waterfalls , beach, and along the rivers to fully immerse ourselves in nature. Nature is our mirror and we will reflect upon ourselves to get a deeper, more authentic connection to nature and thus ourselves and the world.

Numerous studies have shown time spent in nature improves our physical, mental, and emotional health. Immersing ourselves outdoors pulls us away from our disconnected, technology driven world, out of our anxious minds, and into the awareness of the present moment. In the spirit of Aldo Leopold, we assume the role of student, and the land is our teacher. Join us in this outdoor meditation workshop where you will be guided towards deeper connections with nature, self, and each other. "Teach the student to see the land, understand what he sees, and enjoy when he understands." -Aldo Leopold
