Join Candace on a retreat to the beautiful and secluded village of Santa Catalina, Panama. Peace and tranquility abound in this remote and authentic surf town. This is a place where you can unplug and reconnect with YOU!

Caring for ourselves is fundamental to the area of internal happiness. But who is actually taught what self-care is, how to do it, what it feels like, and why it is important to do it? On this retreat we will utilize yoga, mindfulness, self-study, and body work, to assist you in delving deeper into understanding the connections between the body and the mind. Becoming aware of your own physical and mental limitations, expectations, beliefs and possibilities are key to allowing more joy into to your world.

By the end of this retreat, you will be on the path to having a clearer understanding of self-care and be equipped with techniques that can be used wherever you are to bring more peace, joy, and satisfaction to your life.

On this retreat, you will enjoy daily morning yoga classes and evening mindfulness/body work sessions in our beautiful yoga shala , with incredible ocean views and immersed by nature. Three delicious meals featuring local fresh fruits and seafood fresh from the Pacific Ocean will be served each day. Vegetarian options available.

When not enjoying yoga and mindfulness, time will be yours to to spend as you choose: swimming in the infinity pool or lounging in the waterfront sundeck with views of the world-class surf break 'The Point', surfing in the ocean, reading, biking, or just watching the sunset. Kayaks, bikes, SUP boards, surfboards, skateboards, and snorkels are all available at no extra cost.
