I am beyond thrilled to be collaborating with my dear friend, extraordinarily talented, and founder of Sacred Women Collective, Staci Levine. Yes, this retreat is coed!!!! We have long wanted to work together, and the stars have finally aligned for us to travel to the gorgeous, serene, exquisite property of Sansara in Cambutal, Panama. If you are like us, you crave adventure, deep connection, sweaty yoga sessions, soulful meditation, deep relaxation, healthy, gourmet food, and joyful plunges in warm oceans waves with other like-spirited people who share your zest for life!!!
Join Jocelyn and Staci as we travel to a five star experience in a remote jungle paradise for 7 days + 6 nights nestled in beautiful Sansara, a luxury beachfront oasis, which has gathered national recognition for its exquisite attention to detail, blissed out extravagant accommodations, and the true heart and soul of a yogi. This place is a yogi and surfer’s utopia!!!
Do you have to surf to come? Of course not! I am terrible surfer but still had one of the most fun days of my life surfing in the whitewash!!! The surf instructors are so kind, you may be riding a wave with the biggest smile on your face before you know it!
Envision this perfect day! Wake up in your elegantly tropical, oceanfront cabana to the sound of crashing waves on the black sand beach just outside your window.
Roll out of bed on no one’s schedule but your own and meander your way to morning coffee or tea, feeling the warm Panama sun on your skin.
Enjoy a soulful, sweaty yoga session, crafted and inspired by your deepest intentions, whether that be rocking a new pose or blissfully resting in child’s pose .
Enjoy a delicious, gourmet breakfast before you head out to your complimentary surf lesson with expert local instructors, where you will bring along a packed picnic basket to stay energized for your beach day.
Or perhaps you want to stay back, read a long-ignored book, and chill by the salt water pool, where you just may meet your new best friend or finally have that long, uninterrupted deep conversation with the bestie who you came with you on this awesome adventure!
Fill your hours with beach, surf, snorkeling, kayaking or siestas until our evening practice where we will dive deeper into central nervous-calming meditation, regulating and powerful breath work, or deep, connective circle experiences.
Then, guess what? Do it all again for six more days!!!
