"I have found after years of experiencing retreats that the key ingredients come from an awesome location, choice of activities and an intimate group size. Panacea de la Montana is our amazing location, close to the surf town of Tamarindo and far enough up the mountain to find special energy and quiet. You will have your choice of relaxing by the pool or playing in the surf, morning yoga, unusual experiences - La Senda- as well as engaging in uplifting guided discussions and joining special ceremonies. With a small group size, I am sure we will not only leave with memorable experiences but with lasting bonds."

ADDITIONAL RETREAT INFORMATION
Sample Experiences: La Senda

Two of our energy experiences will be at La Senda guided by Brenda, a Pranic Healing practitioner. After half a dozen visits exploring Costa Rica, participating and leading retreats and workshops, Brenda has found a second home in Langosta Beach, close by our retreat location and La Senda. She felt a calling to this magical place and has begun to share her energy healing gifts with the local community. We will experience La Senda, the largest Labyrinth in the world with powerful Sedona like energy, visiting both at the beginning and at the end of our retreat for powerful healing energy experiences.

Yoga hosted by Mary Byerly
Mary Byerly has been practicing yoga for over 20 years, and has been teaching for 13 years. She studied and received her 200 hour certification from Lilah Schwartz in Asheville, North Carolina. Mary has continued her education through workshops with her main teacher and others, along with classes from instructors of various styles, and continued personal study of the philosophy of yoga.
Mary’s main mission is to help students continue to grow in their own practice of all eight limbs of yoga in Costa Rica. Whether she’s helping a new student begin to learn the poses or guiding a long time practitioner to find a deeper level, Mary’s expertise is in designing classes that work for everyone. At Panacea de la Montana, she blends her style based on the students that are there, working with everything from basic alignment to lines of energy, grounded in her belief that what happens on our mats is a microcosm of what happens in all of our life. |
