Everything was/is in absolute balance

Helen and Sara are both knowledgeable, intelligent and more than anything -- attentive and caring to their "guests." Every question or need was met with ease and sincerity.

The name "Wellness in Balance" really says it all very well -- through the beautiful location, amazing food, good yoga classes, fun outside experiences of much variety, massages (THREE massages eliminated a shoulder pain that is still gone even now), laughter, sharing stories -- everything was / is in absolute balance.

Helen's yoga classes were amazing.

Helen and Sara were so warm and welcoming. I felt like I could ask them anything at any time. Helen's yoga classes were amazing. We had yoga in a beautiful gazebo overlooking the rainforest!

It was amazing to wake up and lay in the hamm

I learned a lot about biodynamic farming. We had two farm tours at the lodge that were amazing. It was so much fun to try all the local plants and learn about their benefits.

I also learned how different Costa Rica's Eco system is from the Untied States. It was really interesting to be in such a humid place. It was great for my skin!

ocks on our balconies, go to yoga class, and then have an amazing breakfast. I miss being able to swim laps in the pool and getting messages. I also miss just relaxing and bonding with all the women in our group. The thing I miss the most is making and eating chocolate!

The Wellness in Balance Retreat was more than I could have imagined.

The itinerary was full but still plenty of time for relaxing and reflecting. Starting each day with Helen's yoga class, wonderful! The farm fresh organic food, delicious and satisfying. SO GOOD!!! Something different to try at every meal.

The activities at the farm were great, LOVED the chocolate and medicine making but also enjoyed all the walks and talks. It's hard to write a short review as I did so much in my week. The spa treatments, a must! Jacuzzi time, necessary. The facilities and staff at Finca Luna Nueva were great. Sara and Helen made this retreat a wonderful, stress free escape. Muchas Gracias!!!
