About this trip

Join Lauren for a magical week in Costa Rica at the idyllic and intimate Pranamar Retreat Center. Expect 2x daily practices (a combination of vinyasa and restorative yoga, pranayama and meditation), 2 beautiful meals per day and complete access to the beach and retreat property. The end of the year is a potent time to retreat - to reflect on the year and to set the tone for what's to come. Daily practices will support in the process of cultivating stillness and ease within and to foster a deeper understanding of yoga as a life practice.


Pranamar is a gorgeous, intimate boutique hotel right on the water with luxury two-story villas built around a free-form saltwater pool and tropical gardens, and elaborate beachfront villas. Picture Balinese architecture with bamboo, hardwoods, stone, water and plenty of windows and doors to let in fresh sea breezes -- the perfect place to retreat and to reconnect to what is most important.

This day with Lauren was SUCH a welcome treat. Lauren is incredibly thoughtful in her programming and I could not think of a better, more delightful way to spend a day.

Incredible experience! Lauren has a beautiful way of guiding us through the journey where you are left feeling reinvigorated and deeply at ease.

What a wonderful and rejuvenating day at the Green Gulch Zen Center! Lauren's agenda and pace for the day were a perfect blend of sharing with community, yoga flows, tasty food and relaxing contemplative time on the hiking trail to Muir Beach. Quieting my mind and body, with only the sounds of Lauren's harmonium, chimes or beautiful voice passing through me, is always flat out sublime. Peace everybody, Jeff Ryan

Traveling to Portugal for 'Return to the Sacred' with Lauren, Leia, and Emma was the best decision I have ever made. Cocoon is a true paradise where the only thing more nourishing than the organic, farm to table meals was the yoga, meditation, and sound healing. Quiet mornings... Afternoons at the lake, or surfing in the ocean, hiking through canyons to boulder strewn swimming holes or along coastal trails to private beaches.. Three words: Beauty, Laughter, and Gratitude.

Thank you for these beautiful words! It wouldn’t have been the same without you!

What a magical day. The setting was both beautiful and peaceful. The practice location was secluded just enough to create easy and organic connections. As always, Lauren guided us through profound discussions and soulful yoga. The food was also both nourishing and delicious. Its worth mentioning that it was it was easy to fit this into my schedule since it was nearby and only a day long. Overall, the retreat exceeded my expectations and nourished mind, body and soul.
