Living Consciously
A Transformative Journey to Remember and Reconnect.

This retreat is an invitation to return to that natural state of being — through sacred practice, connection, and nature.

Set on a private eco-luxury property in the pristine beaches of Contadora, Panama, Living Consciously offers an immersive 4-day experience designed to help you rediscover your essence and live from awareness and authenticity.

Across four days, you’ll be guided through three immersive modules:

 

1. Living Consciously with Self

Explore the landscapes within. Learn to cultivate safety, trust, and self-compassion. This foundation allows the heart to open and the soul to breathe.

Includes mindfulness meditation, somatic inquiry, and the first plant medicine ceremony — an introspective journey into presence and emotional release.

2. Living Consciously with Others

Rediscover the beauty of human connection. Through embodied exercises, family constellations, and sacred ceremony, you’ll learn to see yourself in others — fostering empathy, forgiveness, and authenticity.

3. Living Consciously with Nature

Reawaken your relationship with the living Earth. Guided by nature rituals, walking meditations, and microdosing ceremonies, you’ll be invited to experience the intelligence of nature — and your place within it.

 

Our time together in retreat

Wednesday – Opening of the Container

Upon your arrival at Tocumen International Airport, you will be welcomed by a member of our team who will guide you to the private plane for your flight to Contadora. After a short flight, during which you will meet the rest of the participants, you will arrive at Contadora. Once you arrive at the property, you will be welcomed by our staff and invited to check in for the weekend. Once checked in, you will have free time to rest, discover the property, and begin to settle in.

As the evening falls, we will get together to open the container. This will be an opportunity to introduce yourself to the land that will be hosting you, the sacred plants you’ll be communing with, and the souls you’ll be sharing space with.

As we sit together in council, you’ll be invited to share the intention you are bringing to the medicine space. There is no right or wrong intention, so whatever is shared in the circle will be received with compassion, humility, and respect. 

After the ceremony is officially opened, we will sit down for a delicious dinner and continue to get to know each other. After dinner, you’ll be free to continue to enjoy the property and get some rest.

You will be welcomed at the gathering place where the ceremony will be held, and our facilitators will share about the plants that will be offered throughout the day. 

During this day, you will be supported and guided as you navigate the experience. Combining somatic, shamanic, and therapeutic modalities, the facilitators will be with you through the entire process, maintaining its sacredness and intentionality.

Friday - Sitting with Others

After a night of rest, we will begin the day with a meditation practice for those who would like to join. Once done, we will meet as a group to enjoy breakfast.

As we continue to allow the learnings from the first ceremony to unfold, today's invitation is to explore how to foster that inner safety when interacting with others.

For the rest of the morning, you will be free to enjoy the property, continue your integration, and explore what living consciously with yourself means for you. The facilitators will also be available throughout this time for any one-on-one work or support needed.

In the early afternoon, we will gather together to get ready for the ceremony. This ceremony will allow us to connect with ourselves, others, and the energy of the night.

Saturday - Sitting with Nature

After a restful night, we will start the day with a delicious breakfast.

On this day, the invitation is to rest and continue processing what happened during the ceremonies. Introspection, journaling, and contemplation will be key to supporting yourself during the day. During the day, the facilitators will be available for any one-on-one support.

Throughout the day, you will be able to continue the contemplation by connecting with nature and cleansing in the ocean. Going into the sea after a ceremony is incredibly helpful and supportive, so the invitation here is to nurture that feeling of presence as you move the energy with the salt water. 

As the evening falls, we will gather once more in council to continue to support each other. This is an opportunity to openly share what feels good to share about the experience and what you would like to integrate into your life.

As our time together in the ceremony comes to an end, we will close the circle by thanking the land, plants, and spirits that gently supported us. 

Once the circle is closed, you’ll be free to continue sharing in community and ultimately get a nice restful night.

Daily Schedule*:

  • Breakfast - 9:00am - 10:00am

  • Free time (contemplation, introspection, sharing) - 10:00am to 12pm

  • Lunch: 1pm to 2pm

  • Ocean Integration - 2pm to 6pm

  • Closing of Ceremony - 6pm to 7:30pm
