The Dr. Karen Experience: Rest, Restore, Renew in Costa Rica, April 24 -29, 2024- SOLD OUT
Join us for a restorative and rejuvenating retreat where you will recharge in luxury while overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Costa Rica. The retreat will be held at Villa Punto De Vista in the Villa La Isla accommodation, a fully staffed, exclusive-use, private resort. The average daytime temperature in Manuel Antonio hovers between 80º and 85º F.
Situated above the rainforest and majestic coastline of Manuel Antonio in Costa Rica, Villa Punto de Vista is the perfect location for our tranquil and relaxing wellness retreat.
What are the benefits?
This retreat has been tailored with you in mind. It is our hope that you take time to unplug from the busyness of life and take a breath, a pause, and a moment for yourself. A moment that you very much deserve as a Black woman. We invite you to use this time to be free from distraction and just be. Be free. Be authentic. Be you.
Together, we will shift our mindset from automatic pilot and habitual thinking to embracing what each moment has for us… one day at a time, one hour at a time, one moment at a time. We will shift from “doing” to “being.” And we will do this with kindness, compassion, and bravery within the beautiful landscape of the Costa Rican rainforest. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. And prepare yourself for a luxurious and memorable experience.
