deep rest retreat
Nosara, costa rica July, 2026
Retreat into the jungle for a 5-night immersion in deep rest, held in a private residence in Nosara, Costa Rica. This is an opportunity to step out of the pace of daily life and reset your nervous system in a quiet, natural setting—through meditation, rest, nourishing meals, and time in community.
Each day is structured around the vedic practice of Rounding—a sequence of yoga, breathwork, meditation, and rest designed to release stress and cultivate deep stability in the nervous system. With guided rounds, daily knowledge sessions, and evening sound baths, the retreat creates the ideal conditions for profound rest and integration.
Practicing the vedic rounding technique over the course of a week is said to provide the equivalent stress release of 6 months of twice-daily meditation.
New to Vedic Meditation and want to learn in the jungle? Instruction is offered at the beginning of the retreat for an added cost. those new to the practice will be on a lighter rounding protocol with space for surfing and exploring Nosara.
Nestled in the lush hills of Nosara’s renowned Blue Zone, this stunning private retreat property is designed for connection, relaxation, and rejuvenation. The space features multiple luxury cabinas for privacy, centered around a beautifully crafted open-air rancho that serves as the heart of the experience. Upstairs, a serene, covered yoga and fitness deck offers the perfect setting for daily practice surrounded by nature, while below, expansive communal areas invite shared meals, meaningful conversation, and rest. With a saltwater infinity pool, tropical gardens, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, this retreat sanctuary blends elevated comfort with the natural beauty of Costa Rica—creating an ideal environment to unwind, recharge, and reconnect.

what is rounding?
-
the technique
Rounding is a 4-part (asana–breath-meditation-savasana) sequence that prepares your mind and body for a profoundly deep meditation. On a Rounding Retreat, we do multiple daily rounds for transformational stress release & the stabilization of Being. Rounding on retreat provides the equivalent stress release of 6 months of twice-daily meditation.
-
prime your nervous system
To fully immerse yourself in the retreat experience, we highly recommend learning the Rounding technique beforehand. This sequence enhances the body’s ability to release stress, access deep rest, and stabilize Being in the field of activity. Everything is about sequence and stabilization. If your nervous system has been primed and established in rounding prior, you will be able to get to higher rounds on the retreat.
