Honestly it has taken me almost one week to reflect and I'm still laughing and crying and rolling in the energy from this trip. Its the trip and then the afterwards, but lets talk about Toni and the Garden Goddess. Toni is an amazing soul, warm and very observant. As a hostess and organizer everything was better than expected, The accommodations, food, staff, quarters all top notch. The property is amazing, the Yoga spaces top notch. With both in and outdoor practice spaces and all props needed are available. Garden Goddess is built for Yoga retreats. From the peaceful and transforming surroundings to the nature that you experience every day from morning to night!. To the special requests- we requested coffee, meaning me, lol, every morning at 5.30, my coffee was in the pot waiting!!! Seriously, every day... The food was prepared and served every day with an abundance of choices including soups, salads, fresh fruit, vegetarian and animal protein meals, every request was satisfied. Again, the food and resort was awesome! My room was very nice size double with air conditioning and large bathroom. Double doors opened to a large semi private seating area, all very clean and attended. No worries there. really only slept there, lol Now the transformation part!! Toni set the tone with some grounding on the first day, boy I'm glad she did because the the rest of the week my kapha was off the charts. Every morning there was practice and every morning was new experience that included either planned excursions or spontaneous taxi rides up and down the coast from Cahuita to Punta UVA! My inner monkey was on fire!!! Simply amazing experiences, I highly recommend both the Bri Bri Indian reservation and the Punta Uva kayak and beach excursions. Both awesome days and learned so much. And its everything in between that adds up, the people you meet. The ones you travel with, the bonds you create. All of it And through it all Toni is watching and guiding and asking if she can help in any way. Awesomeness all around!! I can honestly go on and on. This experience stays with you, will change you and continues to lift you far after you return! Personally, I would take another excursion with Toni and her compadre anytime they offered because they have the experience and are true to the practice of Yoga! So I would say to you go!!! Hanuman
