Our Why

This past January I had the amazing opportunity to join a women’s wellness retreat in beautiful Costa Rica. Although I went in feeling a little guilty leaving my husband, work and my fur babies. I left Costa Rica a changed person and excited to get back into my work. I departed with tools, such as the practice of daily meditation, new friends and overall a positive energy. Guatemala is a beautiful, spiritual country which I know will take everyone’s heart. My hope is for each attendee to relax, enjoy the daily activities as they please and to truly unwind from their day to day stresses.
