Wild & Well:

A Costa Rica Retreat for Women in Midlife

Wellness for Women, Rooted in Nature

Adventure. Balance. Renewal.

Leave the demands of daily life behind and step into the lush, wild beauty of Costa Rica. Here, where the jungle meets the sea, you’ll be able to reset and find renewed energy and balance. This is more than a vacation. It’s a nourishing retreat designed for women navigating the powerful transitions of perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause.

For one transformative week, you’ll be supported by a circle of women who understand this season of life. You’ll nourish your body with delicious, nutrient-packed meals, move in ways that restore vitality and strength, and gain insights to support your hormone health and overall life balance.

You’ll be immersed in the healing energy of Costa Rica’s Blue Zone, where health and happiness are key to a long and enriching life. As you take the time to think about your wellbeing, we’ll encourage you to incorporate Pura Vida philosophies that take a more relaxed and connected approach. Together, we’ll laugh, share, and explore—allowing stress to melt away and joy to resurface.

If you’ve been feeling exhausted or disconnected from your body and spirit, this retreat offers the reset you need. Through rejuvenating activities, grounding practices, and empowering conversations, you’ll leave feeling confident, resilient, and renewed.
