Costa Rica 2026


April 18th–25th, 2026

The Goddess Garden | Costa Rica


 

There is a place inside you that had always known. A place that remembers your truth, your rhythm, your softness, your fire.

She Who Remembers is a deeply nourishing women’s embodiment retreat devoted to coming home – to the body, to your heart, to the wisdom that lives beneath the noise of daily life. Rooted in the heart-centered philosophy of Gopi Yoga Center, this retreat is an invitation to slow down, soften the armor, and listen inward.

Here, in the lush embrace of the Costa Rican jungle, you are invited to shed what no longer serves, reconnect with your body’s intelligence, and reclaim the parts of yourself that may have been quieted, hidden, or forgotten.


Remember


The Container

 

Held at the sacred and serene Goddess Garden, this retreat unfolds within nature’s living temple, surrounded by jungle, ocean air, and the elemental rhythms of the earth. The land itself becomes a teacher, supporting deep rest, presence, and remembrance.

This is not about fixing yourself.
This is an opportunity to free yourself.

Through intentional movement, embodied practices, meditation, ritual, and sisterhood, you will be gently and lovingly guided back to your own inner knowing.


Free Yourself


This Retreat is For You If…

You’re longing to feel at home in your body again.
You are ready to soften control and listen inward.
You crave depth, authenticity, and meaningful connection with other women.
You feel a quiet (or loud) call to return to yourself.
You want space to rest, release, and remember who you are beneath the roles.

No prior yoga or meditation experience required – only a willingness to arrive as you are.

Sisterhood and Being Seen

Circles rooted in safety, honesty, and compassion – where you are held without needing to perform, explain, or be anything other than real.

Time to swim, walk, nap, journal, and simply be – allowing the nervous system to settle and the soul to breathe.
