About this trip

Transformation is waiting for YOU. 


Mystica is MAGICAL.  The only way I can describe it is that it feels like it is the birthplace of our own True Selves.  It's mother nature's womb! A perfect container of love and inspiration filled with deep activities to reconnect us to our true selves. 


I have been personally transformed by the Magic of Mystica, its owners, Lori and Francesco, and all of the exquisite healers there. I am drawn now to bring people here to help you along YOUR Spiritual Human path.  


It is my deepest honor and pleasure to guide you to and through this magic so you can emerge as the Highest Version of yourself. You owe this to yourself, to your family, to your friends, and to the world.  


2024 will be a year of sifting out what is clearly no longer working for you and reclaiming who you really are. It's time to reconnect to YOU so you can gain a sense of clarity and move forward in a calm yet clear direction. It is time to create a VISION for yourself to unfold in the highest of high versions of yourself. 


Get ready, because you will NOT return as the same person. I promise. 


With Infinite ♾️ Presence, 


Deborah

I had a lovely time but wish there had been more time with the host, and more time in practice. It felt much lighter than what I was looking for / wanted to be challenged more (did ask for this whilst there). Would have loved more opportunity for more yoga as well rather than only twice in a week. Loved the sound bath and the practise space in the jungle, and the hiking trail, the staff at Mystica, and the people.

There are truly no words that can actually describe the experience BUT I will try! You are taken to Mystica in a Van where you will begin to interact with your fellow attendees (FRIENDS by the end). From the moment you enter the property you are in Awe & Wonder at the beauty and that is just the beginning. The grounds are just breathtaking, and I can assure you, you will see a Rainbow at some point over Lake Arenal that will leave you speechless. Then you meet Lori, Francesco and Tino! Three of the most amazing loving people. Then you are escorted to your room OMG what beauty inside and outside….just simply Stunning. The views OMG!! Tranquil & Serene are understatements. Then you will meet the staff and experience eating some of the most fresh and delicious food EVER!! I cannot say enough about each! Then as if that is not enough the Services! From Cranial Sacral to Oracle Card Readings to Massages and so on and so on. They DO NOT disappoint. And finally, the topping on the cake, as if this cannot get any better, are the Workshops, Yoga, Sound Healing & Interactions with Deborah, Lori, Francesco & Helena! I personally have made TREMENDOUS breakthroughs insofar as my fears and “past” are concerned. These experiences were life changing to say the least and allowed me to ugly cry in the best way and at the same time offered me a sense of overwhelming relief and awareness. As I stated in the beginning there are truly no words that can actually describe the experience!! I cannot wait to return for all these reasons & more and will be returning every year for always! The friendships created are immeasurable and heartwarming. It’s awesome how so many different personalities can honestly just become one at times. The compassion & empathy are truly just astounding. Thank you, Deborah, for embarking on this Journey to Mystica and offering this experience to all of us! And for the Lifetime Friendships that have been created ~~~~~ Forever Grateful XOXO If you are on the fence about going….get down off the Fence and JUST BOOK IT!!

This was a wonderful and beautiful experience. I was hoping for a bit more workshop time with Deborah each day but overall I enjoyed the location, the food & the people. A daily yoga or meditation/hike in the mix could be a nice addition. I loved the visit to the horses and just being at Mystica in general. The sound bath was also amazing!!

Going to Mystica with Deborah Hanlon is like winning the lottery. The weather, scenery and natural beauty of Costa Rica shines at Mystica. The owners are not just accommodating; they treat everyone like family. The programs offered allow for spiritual work and plenty of downtime. Deborah expertly works with both the group and each guest individually to guide everyone to what they need. Highly recommend !

Retreats with Deborah are so Special! She is the best Guide for International Travel. I can’t explain how supported and safe I felt through out the whole journey! I just had to plan for another retreat in Costa Rica as the effects were so noticeable returning back into my daily live! The jungle trees and streams, the coastline and animal encounters, the bonds made and Time just for The Self are my favorite things! It’s a must to experience!!

I had heard about last year's retreats to Costa Rica and was very excited to go this year. Deborah, Mystica, Lori, Francesco, the other healers that were there...ALL beyond what I could have imagined. Deborah is so authentic; she is fun, loving, and incredibly in tune with everyone she is leading. The entire adventure is very well planned out with workshops, time with healers, a beach day, Tula Vida 🤍🤍🤍 and well placed integration time. And, the food is incredible! It really is a magical time defying words. You have to experience it for yourself!

I have now done 2 straight Mystica Costa Rica retreats with Deborah and I can’t wait to do the next one with her! Deborah is the most down-to-earth, grounded healer I have ever met. She explains difficult concepts in layman’s terms and combines it with the right amount of humor and self-deprecation. Mystica and its owners Lori and Francesco are absolutely gorgeous and spiritual and loving. Deb has a fluid itinerary for everyone and knows what each person needs at all times and adjusts accordingly. I love her!
