SUYO Experience
2022
A Week-long Transformational Travel Experience in Costa Rica
Re-energize, reconnect, and discover new strengths while learning to surf, enjoying the tranquility of the tropics and giving back in a meaningful way. This is what travel really should be all about.
Now, more than ever, we have an intimate awareness of how precious life can be. It has been a long year, across our planet, and there is now a powerful opportunity for us to connect back in, pause, and integrate what has changed throughout all that has happened into where we go from here. If given the proper attention and time, every time of struggle holds an opportunity to rearrange, and land closer to a life lived in alignment with who we really want to be.
What better way to take this power pause, than to treat yourself to a week away from the pressures of daily life, in beautiful Costa Rica?
The SUYO Experience has been designed as an opportunity for you to relax, challenge your physical body, treat your physical body, have an absolute blast with other ladies from around the world, and nourish your soul in any way that you know it needs the very most. There is something here for everyone!
In making the brave decision to honor ourselves and take time outside of our normal routine and environments, we are able to see things (almost immediately) through a radically different lens. Then, through the careful guidance and experience of trusted life coach, and previous therapist, Angie Kubin, we are able to come up with realistic plans and intentions to carry what we now see, back with us into our real world and lives. What this means is that in taking just one week away from your life, you have the potential to change the whole damn rest of it. Pretty powerful stuff.
Join Angie and a dynamic group of brave ladies from around the world in pursuit of these very things. Together we will take on the ocean waves, the inner workings of our own complicated hearts, the movements and asking of our bodies through yoga, many delicious margaritas (or mugs of tea!), and real times of togetherness.
During the week will also be making a difference and giving back to communities in Costa Rica that have been hit the hardest by the decline in life-sustaining tourism due to the global pandemic, and allowing opportunity to connect with the people of Costa Rica in a meaningful and intimate way.
This is not your average vacation, and yet we think it will be your most memorable one yet. More than a vacation, this is a decision to powerfully re-direct the course of your life through an epically fun, relaxing, challenging and meaningful week away.
What could you possibly be waiting for?
“I struggled with suicidal depression for most of my life. I’ve literally used hundreds of personal development tools along the way which have been incredibly helpful but never seemed to eradicate the issue for the long term. All those self-help and personal development lessons culminated when I was at RISE which allowed for a more profound breakthrough with my mental health than I could have ever imagined. The container of sisterhood and safety and you two created for each one of us transformed levels of my being that I reap benefit from daily.
My path to a suicidal out had been paved for decades. It was familiar. It was what I knew and in some strange way, I found comfort in it. At RISE, you gave me the safety to express my most suppressed self and my most resisted ways of being. My shame. My darkness. My 5-year-old tantrum child, 11-year-old traumatized kid and my bitter, angry teen all came out to play in the sacred circles. Old ways of being that I didn’t even know still resided in me came to the surface and through compassionate sisterhood, “stories” cleared away. I got that it was perfectly ok to choose the depressive path if “I” wanted. THIS was an ultimate gift of freedom. Ironically, in that space of freedom, I took ownership in a new path of unabashed self-love and self-compassion. Since RISE, I rarely go down the dark depression trail. You showed me that I do indeed deserve to immerse myself in self-care and joy.
An expression of thank you could never adequately express what a life-changing gift the retreat gave me. I love you both, and I am deeply grateful to you. May more woman find liberation and connection through your work and service.”
