Highlights
Deep Renewal in Paradise

Deep Renewal in Paradise

Throughout our week together we will explore the space between stimulus and response, where you can leave behind your habitual solutions and cultivate a living relationship with the present moment. As you learn to relax into this space—the pause—and see life and yourself more clearly, you can flow forward with more presence and wholeheartedness. You will return home feeling calmer and connected to yourself and the world around you. 

In this retreat, Jillian Pransky artfully weaves together mindfulness with slow-flow vinyasa, restorative yoga, deep relaxation, meditation, and time in Costa Rica's stunning nature. Her emphasis is on internal observation, rhythmic breathing, and fully supported rest. From this place of centered awareness, your daily life becomes a direct reflection of your deepest insight, compassion, and skillfulness.
