Join MJ of Sacred Fire, who will be a special guest at this once-in-a-lifetime experience in the jungle right off the beaches of Costa Rica. MJ will offer Sound & Energy Healing Ceremonies, Workshops and Ceremonies.

GROW & FLOW Imagine feeling connected, loved, protected and free where your stress, worries and struggles are all transcended. Then experience your inner knowingness that all is connected and collect the evidence that you can live in the vibration of ONENESS.

This experience is going to expand your heart and awaken your Spirit and make life that much more worth living as you learn to embody CONSCIOUS LOVE and compassion through learning how to master your mind and live awakened through your body and play.

We will heal, grow and free your soul by diving into the depths of Yoga, integrating through dance, play, meditation, breath, sound, rhythm and nature.

THE LOCATION We will be staying at Tierra de Sueños Retreat & Wellness Center at Playa Chiquita just outside of Puerto Viejo on the Caribbean side of Costa Rica. This is as far East and South in Costa Rica as you can possibly be where there are gorgeous Turquoise Caribbean beaches. We’ll be nestled away in this Eco facility in a beautiful remote area that is literally off the beaten path. We will enjoy the simple, paradise life being submersed in the jungle and right across the street from the beach.

WHAT TO EXPECT On this retreat, expect to feel EMPOWERED with the tools and support for personal liberation and transformation while shedding layers programming that guard your heart through self-exploratory experiences and practices for greater JOY, FREEDOM and CONFIDENCE in being AUTHENTICALLY YOU.

Everything we practice, learn and experience will support you in showing up braver in your life from a place of LOVE! There will be daily Yoga, Dance, Breath, Chanting and Meditation as well as deep connection with the natural world, land, locals and each other.

ENJOY. RELAX. UNWIND.

Intuitive sound healing & movement journey with MJ and Dean of Sacred Fire, in celebration of the Spring Equinox.

On this formidable day of the year, when day and night are of equal length, we will open our hearts, raise our energy and give honor to the natural forces that give us life. Connected with each other and our internal guidance, we will relax, rejuvenate, and create a sense of oneness, community and joy!

Part 1️⃣: Guided Meditation & Sound Healing (lay down or sit with headphones, eyes closed)

You are invited to gently bring yourself out of winter and into spring, immersed in meditative, healing music from Sacred Fire. With guided visualization and sacred sounds, you will be aligning your energy body, your thoughts and actions with your true path, and you will be setting your intentions for this new cycle.

Part 2️⃣: Movement Journey (stand up and move, or stay still and observe your inner movement)

In the second part of this event, you will be led into a rhythm & movement journey, celebrating the freshness of life and regeneration of abundance. Feel free to move and dance to the rhythm of the drums! You will have the opportunity to let go of the energies that no longer serve you, and create space to welcome playfulness, vitality and momentum with the intention of surrendering to life's phases and rich blessings, ready to manifest your dreams.

Part 3️⃣: Q&A

Part 4️⃣: Sharing Circle For those who wish to hang out and chat until 11:30 a.m. (PT)

Science demonstrates that drumming increases the development of various regions of the brain, including the motor and auditory cortexes. Who doesn't want that?

Since your microphone will be turned off, you can relax into your rhythm and your flow, without worrying about being heard by the group.

In a warm, friendly and non-judgmental atmosphere, you will:
